Palm and SingTel Launch Treo 680 Smartphone in Singapore

Palm and SingTel have introduced the Palm Treo 680 smartphone, a GSM/GPRS/EDGE quad-band world phone, on the SingTel network in Singapore. SingTel customers will find the Palm OS based Treo 680 smartphone easy to use, slim and compact, yet packed full of features beyond its stellar phone capability, such as email, web browsing, messaging, multimedia, calendar, contacts and more.

The Palm Treo 680 smartphone is easy to use because of the multiple innovations it encompasses, including the following:
- Improved phone application, which allows users to dial and navigate the phone features more quickly;
- Ability to ignore calls and send a quick text message, such as "In a meeting" or "Can't talk right now";
- A full QWERTY keyboard with improved buttons, making it even easier to type emails or SMS text messages;
- A messaging application that displays text-messaging conversations as "threaded chats", meaning users can see their entire conversations with a particular person.
