An ad by Sprint reveals the Palm Pixi sports Wi-Fi

This article contains unofficial information.

The second webOS handset, the Palm Pixi is due in the US on 15 November, but certainly the advertising campaign has already started. It will be one of Sprint´s leading devices to hit the shelves around the holidays. The really interesting thing, however, is the dedicated page shows the phone actually supports Wi-Fi. Quite odd really, since it´s the first time such an information has appeared. We guess this is a mistake that will be fixed soon, although we cannot help thinking what a nice surprise it would be if the manufacturer was to add a Wi-Fi module at the eleventh hour. Miracles do happen, especially around Christmas, don´t they?

It says WiFi "capable"? Could that be some kind of play on words?

Sprint screws up ads all the time. I wouldn't hold my breath that it will be sporting Wi-Fi.

from Engadget:
"Sprint has a time-honored tradition of screwing up its ads. Remember the Palm OS-powered (yes, Palm OS, not webOS) Motorola Q2? How about the Pre's mythical tethering capability? Here's a new one to add to the history books: the "WiFi capable" Pixi, yours for just $99.99 after mail-in rebate. Count us in."
