Are Sprint Palm 755p owners complaining?
Check out the latest on the Palm Blog:
Just last month we announced that the Palm Treo 755p smartphone is available on Verizon Wireless and I wanted to provide some clarification around the Treo Voice Dialing software included.
The Verizon Wireless Treo 755p includes a full version of Treo Voice Dialing at no additional cost. You can find the Treo Voice Dial application in bonus software, either directly on your device by opening the MyTreo application, or from your PC by following the bonus software link of the CD.

As one commenter on the original blog post points out, the Treo 755p on Sprint uses a different voice dial application. The Sprint Treo 755p comes with a trial version of Nuance Voice Control, which provides more advanced features like short email/SMS dictation. After the trial, users can subscribe to Nuance Voice Control service at an additional charge.

Let's hope Palm does in fact stage a comeback and give us some decent phones.
