Sprint to launch Palm 800w in July

What appears to be a leaked slide from a Sprint presentation reveals an intended launch date for the Palm 800W along with some preliminary specs that include Sprint's latest and fastest 3G EVDO Rev A network as well as integrated Wi-Fi and GPS functions. As previously suggested, the 800w will replace Palm's current 700w in the Sprint range when it arrives, as indicated by the image, sometime in July.

From the image, we know Sprint's 800w is to run on Windows Mobile 6.0, and come with or without an integrated 1.3 or 2.0MP camera for home or business users, in similar fashion to RIM's BlackBerry. Just like the 700w, the screen is expected to feature a 320x320 pixel resolution.

Styling of the 800w seems to take a departure from Palm's 700-series phones, and is reminiscent of Palm's Centro, though the newest phone is expected to be larger in most dimensions.
