Two very different tales are circulating about Palm Inc. and its new Treo Pro smartphone these days. One story, from Palm and some analysts, is that the new Treo Pro's unlocked feature offers a cost-effective way for international business travelers to dramatically lower roaming costs. The other story, from another group of analysts, is that Palm had to unlock the phone because it could not find a carrier willing to sell it.
