Treo 650 still best PIM phone
8 of 8 found this helpful If you want a Smartphone for mainly Personal Information Management (PIM -Contacts, Diary, Notes), email communication plus telephone calls, this is your phone. I have had one for two years and have just bought another, newer one. I intend using it for years yet. Nothing else comes close to ease of use and functionality.
Palm's OS and interface make navigation easy - no nested menus and obscure settings, everything is easily accessible and understandable. Phone interation with Contacts is brilliant and you can refer to Calendar while on the phone, too.
Want to surf the web - select web and you're online - no fussy set-up. Okay, so its GPRS speed, but for looking up stuff (company phone numbers/email), it's easily fast enough. It's certainly good enough to view ebay and news services.
Want email, setting it up is a doddle and you can have multiple accounts. Want to view your office email via MS Exchange - again, no problem. GPRS pull email is easily adequate or most people.
View Word, Excel, Powerpoint documents with integrated applications and buy cheap third-party applications to enhance it - finance, passwords. View Acrobat documents with another free application.
Play MP3s (Free RealPlayer) and watch films (Free TCPMP player).
And one-handed operation is easy with the integrated keyboard and navigation/menu buttons. No other Smartphone is as easy to use one-handed. You can get to just about everything without using the stylus. But the touchscreen/stylus combination is still the most sensible option - pressing buttons on-screen with fingers just contaminates the screen and is difficult one-handed (because the area you need to cover to select on-screen letters is too big), while slide-out keypads waste time, are more flimsy and not so convenient.
Battery life? Well, I have a 2400 mAh battery (1800 std) and I can get five days' intensive use out of it, no problem. If you charge a battery and put the Treo in a draw and don't use it, it will last for months. This is not the same for the 680 which uses a 1200 battery and runs down faster.
Crashes/hangs? Yes, they happen - very occassionally - but just a press of the reset button and you're back to where you were in seconds - no data loss. Plus with PC back-up you are not going to lose any data should you lose the phone or break it.
Bulky? Yes, it's bigger than a normal phone, but smaller than some Nokia's. I use a belt clip case and it is just fine. You can put it in a suit inside pocket, however.
In short, it will be a while yet before anything comes close to this phone's PIM strengths. But if you want intensive web, music and video capabilities, look elsewhere for sure. This is a businessman's tool.

Novel black comedy series with great characters and story line
Brilliant black comedy series. If you like stuff like 'In Bruges', 'Lobster' or 'Get Shorty', then you will love this.
