I just received an email from one of our readers whose been full of good info in the past. They’re apparently privvy to the AT&T roadmap for 2008. Most of the information seems to agree with what’s been speculated about. Lots of WM 6.1 refreshes and some slightly updated models. Details after the jump.

Ok, here is the shimmy from AT&T for the year:

For Blackberry expect the following:

3Q/08:

BlackBerry Curve 8320 (Wi-Fi)
BIS 2.5 (done)

    No 6.1 for the Treo 750?!?!? Nooooooo!!!!!!! http://tinyurl.com/4hvsvj

    No Palm 850 either…

    Feedback was that a “super thin” Palm was scene but not observed on the map. I think the thin Palm was in all likelihood the Palm 850.

    Unsure of whether that will be destined to show on AT&T by year’s end or now.

    We’re definitely as curious as you are.
