RE: [Treo] Sprint Treo 700p Question

Thu, 25 May 2006 04:29:13 -0700

I can't say definitively, but my guess is no.  Phones are inherently either Vision or Power Vision phones.  Because the 700P is EVDO-capable, it's a Power Vision phone.  Technically I'm not even sure if for an EVDO phone on their network they can actually provision the phone so that you will only be able to use the 1xRTT speed.  It could be that EVERY phone in a given area uses the same EVDO network, but it's just backwards compatible so that older phones don't take advantage of the speed.  This is speculation of course.  You might want to check with a place like HowardForums where there are Sprint employees and lots of folks who are very knowledgeable about the underlying technology...
