Retailer Fry's Electronics today prematurely displayed Handspring's new Visor Pro and Visor Neo products. Due to the mistake, we were released from our NDA and will soon put up reviews of the two products. Note that the products will not be offically announced nor available from Handspring.com until Monday, September 17.
In brief, the Visor Neo is a Platinum clone that comes in blue, red, and smoke colored translucent casing. It runs a 33MHz Dragonball processor, and Palm OS 3.5.3H3. It will retail for US$199.
The Visor Pro is another monochrome version that cosmetically looks like the others, but with a lighter silver casing, 16MB RAM, and a rechargeable lithium-ion battery for US$299. The new Fast Lookup feature that first appeared in the Visor Edge is also included in both products. For photos please visit our Palm section.
