SDIO Wi-Fi card, but the Treo 700p does support EvDO, which means
broadband-like speeds for users.
In general, integrating Wi-Fi creates big tradeoffs in terms of form
factor and battery life, and those are two of the top customer
priorities in purchasing a smartphone.
In this product, customers will benefit from the product's DUN
(dial-up networking) capabilities. Customers can use the Treo as a
modem to connect to their computer and, since the Treo 700p uses a
high-speed EvDO radio, users won't have to rely on finding a fee-based
Wi-Fi hot spot to be able to access the web at broadband-like speeds.
DUN will be available with a monthly service charge from the carrier,
and could be less expensive than Wi-Fi service."

Short version: "We *can't* give you WiFI, but we'll be happy to sell you EvDO!!"
