I don't know whats going on with the 800 buuuut I just got the mogul and I came from the 700wx and the mogul is nice, I mean they each have their differences but, I do see ALOT more customization from Palm's device....i.e. the right soft key gives you many more options, and etc, but I mean the next OS that palm puts out will most likely be a universal OS like what they have been talking about. For me the only upgrade I would love to see with the from the wx is a better camera...but NOT needed as I have a digi cam and I don't buy the phones to be cameras I buy them to be my phone'pda. A better resolution would be nice although what the wx has now is fine, but if you're going to call it an upgraded phone I would expect that to be there, clearly the wm6 os. WiFi would kick ass that was one of the main reasons i went to the mogul. I like the keyboard on the outside, but i have fat thumbs so taking an extra second to open the mogul and make it easier to type was a sacrifice. But I guess all in all the following would do it for me...

Better reso
wifi
memory is fine so if they added more its only a bonus
better camera
bigger keys (although this would make the phone a little bigger)

that being said I can't wait for it and am surprised we haven't had any more leaks.


And on the hardware side of things its definitely up to the carrier...VZW I know for a fact does not like to have wifi on their phones I actually talked to a manager about this when I had the 6600 waaaay back when he was like we just had a huge meeting and if they include wifi on the phones we lose alot of money becasue people dont use our data services so we try to limit the amounts of phones that have it (given this was awhile ago so) But it pisses me off that the carriers do shit like that they should just let the creators do their thing and then add software, however the carriers DO put restrictions on Palm, and HTC. If Palm and HTC want to sell their phones to sprint and vzw they have to make sacrifices which usually means an altered phone to those that they woiuld sell to their euro counterparts. Which is unlucky for us as we normally get the 'modified' versions aka the shitty ones that have things blocked or removed.
