Any design cues to tell what version it is beyond the color?

The pink one is a bright color. Once you have the phone in your hands you can tell by the amount of internal memory.

Hard to do that when buying from eBay :P

I guess the only way to be sure I'm getting second gen is to buy Lime color.

Or to ask the seller how much memory it has.

*cough*

I'll spare you guys the rant this time. But that Treo Pro is loads more capable compared to modern smartphones than the old Palm OS. There are still certain things it does better than Android and iOS, and I miss them terribly.
WebOS is another story, however. Wish that hadn't burned as hard as it had... so much potential.

But as far as vintage Smartphones go, the Touch Pro 2 had the best keyboard of any device I've ever used, hands down. The screen was ahead of its time, and it even supported composite video out (which was great for using it as an impromptu media player for a television). But be warned- Windows Mobile isn't for everybody. You have to learn how to make it work the way you want it to (don't expect a glowing user experience out of the box). The MS Office and Exchange synchronization as well as multi-tasking, VOIP and media capabilities replaced my laptop on many occasions.

Good times, good times.

Does the BB 9630 work on the free and clear plan?

If yes, will it cost an additional $10 a month?
Thanx

they will require you to have a data package in order to activate it, and yes they will charge you extra $10 a month.

I think you need to have "premium date" in order to have a blackberry. If you had on a centro for example it would not work on a BB

the way it works is that in order to get a smartphone on you will need a premium data plan and that is what costs $10 more per month, so if you dont have to pay it means theres no need for for the plan to be premium.

You got me curious here, what was good about WebOS? It opens applications sooooooooooooo slowly!
