| hrmm? Well I picked up the treo 600 (the phone in the picture up top) and since sprint does not have SMS enabled yet (they claim they will start offering it in a couple months) I use IM instead. I've never been happier with a phone, instead of using SMS I just IM people and that takes me at most 30 secs.
Using Verichat from pda apps I have pre-defined msg's that I can use the 5 way nav to send very very quickly. Vision is always on so I dont have to worry about logging onto it every time I want to do someting, and it only takes 10 seconds to log on if I'm not.
Having a keyboard on the phone is just unbelievable, it is the first phone I have had that I can truely correspond easily. I get my IMAP pushed to my phone, IM's while I'm out of the office, and in desperate times can hook the synch cable up to my laptop/phone and it acts just like a external modem.
Alot of people complain about the screen resolution and the camera, saying they are both poor quality, but I see this as a business tool not a play toy. The screen lets me see what I need to see (in full sunlight) and the camera takes pictures well enough to get the point across.
Having a SDIO slot makes the phone 10x's better than anything else on the market I think. With only 32mb onboard memory the phone is somewhat limited. Throw in a 512 SD card and you've got hours of mp3's to listen to via pocket tunes, save your presentation on it, store documents, pictures, etc.
And soon Wi-Fi which will just be another added plus. Oh and did I mention streaming shoutcast music to your phone is just ultra geek cool?

I am dying to get the AT&T enabled Treo 600 !!!!!
Everything in ONE, awesome.
A true mobile office and then some !!
I am glad you like yours. Do you find it a bit on the larger size? And, how does the screen compare to a Clie?
Come on AT&T, offer that thang ! | |

| Re: hrmm? I had the samsung i300 and i330 before this.. and they were both larger. The t600 really is not as large as it appear's in the pictures. Much smaller than previous treo models.
The screen is no comparison to a Clie, its still a 160x160 screen. But like I said earlier, it gets the job done, it would be nice to have a high res screen but I prefer more battery over better screen
