According to some emails sent out to some lucky Palm fans, PalmInfoCenter has found that Palm is planning to start beta testing “an innovative new product.” Beta testers are required to be heavy email and data users with access to WiFi and a current Sprint customer. The next Palm Treo slated to go to bat for Palm is the Palm Treo 800w, and Palm's been playing up their new Treo for quite some time. The “innovative” product from Palm is most likely the Palm Treo 800w.
From the email:

The confirmation of “WiFi” is great news for anyone following the development of the Palm Treo 800w. Not only will the Windows Mobile-powered Palm Treo 800w be rocking 3G data speeds, but it will apparently be down with some good, old-fashioned WiFi access. Oh, and it looks like the Treo 800w will also be shipping with Windows Mobile 6.1 (with MMS in tow).
The Palm Treo 800w is slated for a mid-2008/Summer 2008 launch.
