Here are some supposed leaked shots of the next generation of Palm Treo’s. Currently codenamed Lennon and Nitro, the main difference we see here are Treo’s with their antennas cut off to deliver a sleeker form factor. My guess is that these next generation versions add built-in WiFi, a higher megapixel camera (or an option of no camera), have a faster processor, and a few other goodies that probably very few people will use. Previously a image of this new model was taken and dubbed Hollywood, which can be found here. Finally, we expect all future models to be released in both Palm OS and Windows Mobile versions in addition to the possibility of a Linux version too.

Update: We became aware of the following leaked image of a Cingular roadmap showing the Nitro and Lennon for October.

The Treo Lennon is listed as having UMTS and Class 10 EDGE, a 1.3 megapixel digital camera, WiFi (built-in, one can only hope), and sports Windows Mobile 5.0 with MSFP. Not quite as many details about the Treo Nitro, but it is listed as having a 1.3 megapixel digital camera and appears to be running the Palm OS.
