Is Palm prepping a new phone codenamed "Mansion"?
Daniel Carey
While this is still very much a rumour it looks as though Palm’s finally beginning to throw around HP’s big bucks. PreCentral, is currently reporting that it’s heard from a “very reliable tipster” who says that Palm is beginning to prep a new phone codenamed “Mansion.” — While, there’s still no way to confirm this, it’s also been rumoured that the “Mansion” could be the same device that passed through the FCC recently under the name P102.
Now, the rumour states that the “Mansion,” is essentially the same form factor as the Pre sans the keyboard, and, well, with the added addition of a fairly high 800 x 480 resolution display. There’s not much else at the moment, however, keep this in mind: Palm does have a nasty little habit of naming its devices after elaborate housing structures. After all, the Pre was codenamed “Castle.”
