I read over at MobileSyrup that lots of new smartphones are headed to Saskatchewan in Canada via SaskTel, the leading full service communications provider there.

Seems that SaskTel has officially put "Coming soon" on their website for the Palm Centro and Palm Treo Pro, along with the BlackBerry Pearl and the Samsung Omnia.

No word on the prices or actual dates yet.

Palm announced today that the Treo Pro is now available on the Telecom New Zealand XT Mobile Network.

The Treo Pro is aimed at business users and lets IT managers support an increasingly mobile work force with the ease of use and robust feature set. Running on Windows Mobile 6.1, the Treo Pro allows for easier device management and access to information on the corporate network. Plus, there are benefits of lower costs and increased productivity.

Treo Pro helps optimize business processes by effortlessly mobilizing users with enhancements to the Windows Mobile 6.1 platform, including:

• One-touch Wi-Fi button -- Easy, fast Wi-Fi connection experience (802.11b/g).
• Today screen enhancements -- Web search directly from the Today screen.
• Ringer switch -- Silences the device immediately.
• Screen saver -- Lets users know at a glance -- without turning on the device -- what time it is and whether they have missed a call or have a new SMS/MMS message.
• New voicemail indicator -- The center button flashes to let users know that a voicemail is waiting.
• Dedicated email and calendar buttons -- Fast one-button access.

You can read the full press release here. And more information about the Treo Pro is available at www.palm.com/TreoPro.

Looks like the Hyatt has made some moves to be more mobile-friendly (and not in an Apple App Store way). According to this story posted at FierceWireless.com, the Hyatt just launched its mobile Web site, which will provide guests with the ability to locate and book a hotel, view or cancel reservations, and check in or out through any mobile device. The new mobile site can be accessed on any Web-enabled mobile phone, automatically redirected from Hyatt's homepage at www.hyatt.com.

This mobile site is Hyatt's mobile site powered by Usablenet, a mobile partner for leading brands including American Airlines, Amtrak, Limited Brands, Nissan and Pfizer.

The "magic" is that when you launch the Hyatt website from your browser (i.e. Blazer on the Treo Centro, it arrives formatted for the screen. I gave it a try and was impressed. No left to right scrolling necessary.

The options offered included:

• Day of Travel: Check In/Out and Travel Tips
• Book a Hotel: Find and Book a Hotel and Hyatt Special Offers
• Gold Passport (their frequent traveler program)
• Contact Hyatt with access to their 800 number and other means of getting a hold of them (including international numbers).

It looked impressive and is worth bookmarking for anyone who travels frequently and prefers staying at a Hyatt.

Each week we bring you the best of SPE. This week, The iPhone Blog brings you a gigantic Birthday Bash Contest with a grand prize of a Factory Unlocked iPhone 3G done up, Colorware-style. Crackberry.com had the WES 2009 Conference covered six ways from Sunday, too. Meanwhile, Nokia Experts stood out as the single best place to find out all there is know about the just-released Nokia E71x. There's much more, so read on!

This week, New York Times writer, J.D. Biersdorfer tackled a reader's question about how to get contact and calendar information out of a "dead" Palm device.

You have two options: try to get the Palm organizer fixed or try to harvest the data that it synchronized to your computer transferred to Microsoft Outlook. The latter option, however, may not do you much good if you never (or rarely) synchronized the organizer to the computer's Palm Desktop program.

This is a reminder for all of us... make sure you sync and backup your data. In fact, set yourself an appointment to do so. Better yet, make that a recurring appointment.

Backup options, such as Resco Backup and Right Back Up by Stand Alone, Inc. are available starting at $9.95.
