The heated battle between rivals Verizon Wireless and Cingular Wireless L.L.C. edged up a notch as Verizon Wireless cut its prices on several handsets recently introduced by Cingular.

Just days after Cingular introduced the Palm Inc. Treo 750 for $400, Verizon Wireless lowered its prices on several of its Treo models. At Verizon, the Treo 700p with or without a camera is selling at $300, down from $400 the previous week. The Treo 700w plummeted to $250 from $400.
