Sprint Palm Treo 800w to sport Internet Explorer 7.11?
Details on unreleased handsets sometimes pop up in some unlikely places. The Sprint Palm Treo 800w is slated to release in a couple months , but that apparently has stopped a user from testing their own Palm Treo 800w on DSL Reports' website. The user-agent data shows that the bandwidth tester was using a Palm Treo 800w on Sprint's network. Display resolution was apparently set at 320×320. But, most interesting is the mention of Internet Explorer (IE) 7.11. I mentioned some time ago that Microsoft was working to completely overhaul their Pocket Internet Explorer (PIE) mobile web browser with full Flash, Silverlight, and H.264 support. The new browser was set to launch with a version of Windows Mobile 6.1 later this year, and the IE 7.11 that we see in the Palm Treo 800w's user-agent could very well be that next-generation Internet Explorer Mobile. Of course, IE 7.11 could simply be the slightly updated version of PIE that currently calls Windows Mobile 6.1 its home. Furthermore, user-agent's can be spoofed, so take all this with a grain of salt. [Via: WMExperts ] --- Related Articles at IntoMobile:
