Research in Motion and Palm announced Wednesday that Cingular Wireless will now offer Blackberry Connect to Palm Treo 650 users.
RIM's popular push e-mail service, calendar synchronization and other features will be available on the Palm smartphones. All you need is a Treo 650, a BlackBerry Connect plan from Cingular, and BlackBerry Connect software from the Palm Web site. Oh, and your IT department needs a BlackBerry Enterprise Server. Then you're good to go.
