Treo 700p/wx Hacked

Palm's latest CDMA PDAs have finally been hacked. Steps have been made public for a few weeks now. Currently my 700wx is cloned to my Sanyo M1. A cloned phone means I've taken a phones number and serial number(ESN) and copied them to another phone making them both work under the same phone line. Unlike GSM phones(Cingular, T-Mobile), CDMA phones have no SIM card so it's not as easy to switch phones often. Cloning allows us to use a few different phones(not simutanously, duh) without having to call up Sprint and wait for a rep to switch the phone over which is usually atleast a 10-minute process.



If you would like more detailed info on this or would like me to clone a Treo for you feel free to use the comments.

Early Look at Sprint's Samsung M510 and Sanyo 7050

Nothing super exclusive here. I was able to snag a few pics of these upcoming phones so why not post em? According to SprintUsers the Samsung M510 and Sanyo 7050 will drop in April. Are these phones really cool... no.

The M510 is definitely better than the M500 but that phone was weak anyway. First thing I noticed about this phone was the "menu
> settings > display > 0" trick for the Debug Menu is not there.  
Not sure if its been moved or just removed altogether yet.  
The debug menu was loved by many for allowing you to disable 
modem nai for free tethering.  DDTM could also be disabled to 
allow incoming calls while in an EVDO session. 

The Sanyo 7050 is just your average rugged Sanyo flip.
A step up from the weak 2400/3100/7000 but I'd rank it
under the 7500.  Lack of EVDO ruins this phone for me.  
Nothing new for this phone other than looks.

I'll be holding off for the Samsung M620(Flipper) being released early next month.
