Though the Treo Pro has tempered pretty much any love we′d had for the suddenly ancient-looking 800w, we’ve got to hand it to Palm — they′ve been on the ball with software updates since the phone’s release a month and a half ago. The latest, which Palm calls “highly recommended for all Treo 800w devices,” fixes problems with the detection of certain USB accessories and the inability to charge a completely dead battery (and don’t worry, they’ve posted a trick for getting it charged enough to install the update). What’s more, this particular patch can be applied over the air simply by visiting a URL, which is exactly what we like to hear.

If comScore’s data is to believed then the US has done the unthinkable and passed Western Europe (aka, old Europe right Donnie?) in terms of 3G adoption. 28.4% of American mobile cellphone subscribers north of that southern land mass with a similar sounding name now sport 3G devices compared to a measly 28.3% average for Europe’s largest countries. That’s an 80% surge in the US last year even though T-Mobile is still 3G-less. Man, it’s like the Phelps 100-meter butterfly victory all over again, eh Europe?

It was only a matter of time before the WSJ (Katherine Boehret, in this case) got their hands around Sprint’s still-not-official Touch Diamond, and we can’t say that the conclusion she drew is at all shocking. As Mossberg and his partners so often do, Katherine mentions Apple’s darling just as much as the topic of the review itself, and while she seemed impressed with the hardware, it was the software that suffered the brunt of her attacks. She proclaimed that “despite its handsome TouchFLO 3D software and animated icons, the device failed to disguise the frustrating interface of Windows Mobile often enough for [her] taste.” Beyond that, she also found room to gripe about the “cramped” keyboard, which she felt was “next to impossible″ to use with just her fingertips. On the plus side, she did give the browser a decent amount of praise, but if you were looking for support from this critic before picking up the forthcoming handset, you′ll be sorely disappointed.
