Handspring, Inc. today announced a holiday offer for its Treo 180 communicators for the breakthrough price of $99 after mail in rebate. For a limited time, and only while supplies last, customers who purchase a Treo 180 or 180g with a GPRS service contract from T-Mobile will be eligible to receive $150 through a mail-in rebate. Handspring's GPRS software brings a new level of performance and simplicity to Treo by enhancing applications like email and web browsing with faster, always-on connections to high-speed data networks. The $99 after rebate incentive on Treo 180 is exclusively available at www.handspring.com. A GSM service contract from T-Mobile that includes a 10MB or higher GPRS data plan (recommended for Treo customers) is required to qualify for the rebate.
"With this promotion, Handspring is delivering one of the most powerful communications products available for less than the price of a basic PDA," said Joe Sipher, vice president of marketing for Handspring, Inc. "At $99, the ability to combine a mobile phone with a Palm OS organizer is more compelling than ever. And with full web browsing and messaging, no other product comes close to delivering this much value today."
