HP Veer shows its cute little face in FCC

It’s not exactly full disclosure — you won’t get to see a user’s manual, for instance, or those gritty FCC lab external photos that we always love — but a new device passed by Palm through the feds’ systems in the past 24 hours is pretty clearly the Veer judging by the mentions of a sliding mechanism, the lack of CDMA, and the fact that we know the Veer is the next webOS phone to hit the market. Now, here’s where it gets a little interesting: this filing was definitely made by Palm, not HP, which leads you to wonder just how far into the process the company got on its next-gen handsets before HP decided to effectively kill off the Palm brand altogether. In case you’re wondering, the filing refers to an internal model number is P160UNA, indicating a model P160 in the North American UMTS configuration (for the record, the North American unlocked Pre 2 is the P102UNA ). If you ever see a P160EWW in the system, that’d likely mean that a CDMA Veer were in the works — but seriously, we wouldn’t get our hopes up.
