The Treo 600 isn’t even supposed to be out until September or October, but PC Magazine has what is almost certainly the first review of Handspring’s new smartphone:

We got to take an early prototype of the Treo 600 for a test run. The hardware was close to the final version, but much of the software still needed tweaking. Still, after about a day of using the device for Web browsing, e-mailing, making phone calls, and taking pictures, we came away impressed. Handspring seems poised to reset the standard for integrated data/voice devices yet again.

Assuming that the specs don’t change between now and the fall, the Treo 600 will run on either CDMA or GSM, cost between $400 and $500, and have a built-in digital camera, a 160×160 pixel display, run Palm OS 5.2, a mini-keyboard, 32MB of RAM, and an SD expansion slot.
