Will T-Mobile Adopt Treo 680?

While scrolling through the site one day, the Palm Treo site that is, an observant Engadget reader caught a listing for the Treo 680 with a link for T-Mobile support.
So far, the only carrier in the United States selling Treo 680s is Cingular.
Does this mean T-Mobile is about to take on the Treo 680 as one of its own products? Not necessarily. Palm has also been selling unlocked Treo 680 handsets from its own website. This may just be Palm trying to be helpful - offering support to T-Mobile customers who have bought unlocked 680s and want to use them on T-Mobile’s network.
There are plenty of T-Mo customers who would love to be able to have Treo 680s at a subsidized price from T-Mobile. I might even be one of them. But we’re not holding our breath. Just because Palm supports 680s for T-Mobile doesn’t mean T-Mobile is on board.
