Gadget Rumor: Treo’s Swivel Phone For 2009 , Codenamed The Roteo, Or Some Other Mysterious Swivel Device?

There’s no official word on this mysterious swivel phone with full QWERTY keyboard, but in all likelihood it’s a Palm smartphone for 2009.  As noted by Treo Central there’s the familiar Treo keyboard, plus the obvious Treo look, feel and shape.  OS is speculated to be either Windows Mobile or Linux, and the latter of the two might just be what Palm needs to get out of the rut they’re in.  Plus both OSes might just work with the included touch pad at the base of the phone.  One Treo Central member apparently speculated that this phone is in fact the ‘Roteo’, an internal name that will no doubt will change upon release.

Here’s looking at pure speculation.
