At present, no. Though PalmOne claims to be working on it.

I'm just curious though: why? I have a Treo650 myself, and the whole
reason I got it is because while I'm near Wifi spots a lot, I wanted the
650 specifically because there are still very many spots where there
*isn't* WiFi, but there is PCS Vision coverage.

Absolutely correct!

The Treo 650 works anywhere there is signal. WiFi is sporadic (to
date) at best and more expensive then Vision Services (unless you are
among the fortunate few living where there are lots of free HotSpots).

BTW - This phone/handheld divice - ROCKS!
