palmOne updates Sprint Treo 650, adds Bluetooth DUN

You know we love the Treo 650, but we've also got some serious issues with it. Or at least we did until today, that is. palmOne's just issued a new firmware update for the Sprint version of the Treo 650 that enables....wait for it...Bluetooth Dial-Up Networking! This means you'll finally be able to use your Sprint Treo 650 as a wireless modem with a Bluetooth-enabled laptop, at least without hacking it (it also means that Sprint and palmOne made good on their word; not that we didn't believe them or anything). They've also fixed our other major complaint about the Treo 650, namely that incredibly annoying and unacceptable post-dial delay before a call is connected (you can't even imagine how completely obnoxious it is to have your phone freeze for ten seconds every time you try and make a call). Are we happy? Yes, but we're going to continue to whine until palmOne releases a proper driver for its SD WiFi card.
