Handspring Introduces Color Treo 270By Handripring introduces color version of the Treo 270. A compact, color wireless communicator the device that integrates mobile phone, wireless applications like email and Internet browsing, and a Palm OS organizer all in one. The Treo 270's large, colorful touch screen sets the product apart from other high-end mobile phones. The color display also offers better clarity and readability of text and graphics, ideal for Web browsing, viewing photos and playing games. The built-in, backlit QWERTY keyboard enables people to use the device with one hand, even in low light conditions, while also providing faster and more familiar data entry and navigation. The Treo 270's increased battery life allows up to three hours of talk time and 150 hours of standby time. Treo 270 offers all of the capabilities previously introduced with Treo 180. It includes such features as Instant Lookup of phone numbers and contacts usually in three keystrokes or fewer, 50 speed dials, a traditional dial pad on the keyboard, call log, easy three-way calling, caller ID and speaker phone. It is a dual-band GSM world phone that can roam internationally. Treo 270 is also a wireless messaging device capable of sending and receiving SMS text messages and email. Earlier this month, Handspring introduced Treo Mail, a new wireless email service designed exclusively for Treo communicators that gives individuals mobile, secure access to corporate email or POP3 Internet accounts. Additionally, Treo 270 includes a new version of the Blazer Web browser that allows one-handed navigation of Web links and pages with the rocker switch and enables in-line editing. Web browsing and email retrieval require Internet service either through a wireless service provider or an ISP, as well as GSM wireless. The steel-gray Treo 270 measures only 4.2 x 2.8 x 0.82 inches and weighs just 5.4 ounces. The communicator has 16MB of memory and a rechargeable lithium ion battery. It is compatible with the thousands of Palm OS applications currently available.
