Is the Treo 700w a sucessful replacement for phone/PDA/email? Any downsides?

Question

I am currently using a cell phone and a PDA. I am looking for something as user friendly and as powereful as both these individually.

Answer 1

It depends on what you use your PDA for. If for outlook integration, it should work very well, the only downside is that the new ActiveSync 4.1 software has major compatibility issues with certain corporate firewalls. If you use your PDA for in car nav or watching movies, not so well. Also, if you have any purchased software for your PDA, it will not work on the 700w which requires Windows Mobile 2005 for Smartphone versions. There aren't many apps out right now for the 700w but it should increase quickly once the device is more generally available.



The 650 was very well received so I expect the 700w to be great. If you don't need a full keyboard, the Cingular 2125 has a higher resolution and is much smaller and cheaper than the 700w. I use mine for Yahoo! subscription music and to watch downloaded tv. Works great!

Answer 2

I think you will be happy with it Windows Mobile 5 is a very nuice OS for the Treo. The only problem with the combo phones is the the phone works but is not as good as a regular cell phone.

He ought to comprehend that it is going to be confusing to fill the boots of Dermott, yet we could face it, Dermy substitute into enormously unprecedented until eventually now BBLB and all of us grew to love him, I say we could supply the recent bloke a guess. he's a mate of Lily Allen, so i think of he must be enormously cool.
