Quick Thoughts on the Rumoured Treos

When it comes to the future Treos, rumours are a dime a dozen. However, recently there have been several more solid rumours out there. A few weeks back, we heard rumours of the "Lowrider", the "Hollywood", and the Treo 700p (which was later confirmed true with it's release). And now, we have rumours flying around of a "Nitro" and a "Lennon". Four new devices seems quite unlikely, but there are some way that could have it make sense.

The way I see things, there are only 3 probable scenarios for these devices. The first scenario I see, is that the "Hollywood" is the the "Lennon". I mainly say this because of the UMTS that both devices are rumoured to have. Which would then make the "Lowrider" the "Nitro". However, another way of thinking would be that the "Lowrider" is actually not the "Nitro", and that the "Nitro" is also a "Hollywood", just the PalmOS equivilent to the "Lennon", much like the Treo 700w and the Treo 700p. Finally, the last way to think of things is that, one or all of devices aren't real. Time will tell.

Also, did anybody else notice that on the Cingular roadmap, they use PalmOne instead of Palm?
