Verizon turning the lights out on the Treo 755p

Here iss an interesting factoid to chew on: the cycle between the first rumors that the Palm 755p was coming to Verizon and its launch was longer than the window of time between launch and sunset. Just think about that for a second. Seriously. Verizon has reported to Palm Infocenter that it’s officially decommissioning the Palm OS-based smartphone — the only in Verizon’s lineup with strong ties to Palm’s old-school industrial design — in favor of the Centro, a smaller, friendlier, more consumer-oriented device. It seems like Big Red might be at risk of alienating some Garnet-loving business customers who aren’t interested in carrying a device with a keyboard as small as the Centro’s, and honestly, doesn’t it feel like the 755p has at least a few more months of life yet? Or are we crazy?

LG launches KF300 Wine phone in Japan and Europe

7-23-08-kf300-wine-phone.jpg

What, you didn’t realize that LG was shipping its KF300 Wine phone in Europe and Japan today? Just open your eyes — you can probably see the screen from your current position. This easy-to-see handset, unashamedly aimed at folks 30 years or older, is being paradoxically shown off by a couple of minors (just a hunch, folks) as it makes its official debut in the aforesaid nations. Interested consumers can pick one up now in white / gold / pink (Japan) or pink / dark purple / black (Europe) for an undisclosed amount.
