It's too bad they don't add 802.11 to the Treo. Maybe next time. The EVDO sounds nice, but Sprint's EVDO coverage is pretty sparse - limited to big metro areas. I don't know about Verizon's coverage. Another thing I don't like about the Sprint offer -- they make you pay a lot extra to be able to use the Treo EVDO with a laptop. The screen on the 700p is also 320x320, like the 650 (but the 600 was only 160x160). Overall, I recommend these devices as cell phones. They are killer cell phones. But, they aren't very good PDAs. The integration of PDA with cell phone is fantastic though. For me, the integration aspect definitely outweighs the mediocrity of the Treo as PDA. I only want to carry one device, and I absolutely love making calls directly from the contacts list, or from Vindigo or from a web page. If you lose your phone, all of your phone numbers and other data are backed up on your computer, so you aren't totally SOL. Cell phones that don't sync to a PC are a disaster waiting to happen. > It however is not a linux os but it plays very well with them. I have a Treo 600 and I run PalmVNC on it and use that to connect to a Linux box. It works. Mike
