"This is a nice improvement over 700wx"
Pros: Strong Signal, Threaded Text Messages, Compact Size, Better Bluetooth Connections, WiFi
Cons: battery life, ringer volume
Summary: I have had several Treo's starting with the old 170, 650, 700p and ( 3 ) 700wx's and Palm does not make huge changes but what they do to their products is make the changes for what people actually need and improve on what they already have in their ... read more >>

"Treo/Windows Mobile veteran loves it - with one exception"
Pros: All the features of a Mogul w/o the annoying pullout keyboard and lack of memory
Cons: Batterly life, battery life, battery life
Summary: Two days in, this phone is everything I had hoped for (with the exception listed above). I had been using a Mogul - but the pullout keyboard (annoying) and lack of memory (more annoying) made it less than optimal. The 800w seems to solve these pro... read more >>

"Battery makes phone utterly useless"
Pros: Windows Mobile 6.1 is great and the functionality of the phone is excellent. Everything you need is at your fingertips. Internet is smoking fast.
Cons: The battery life makes this phone totally useless for a business traveler or anyone who is going to be away from a power source for more than 3 hours. This Con alone justifies a poor rating.
Summary: This is by far the most functional Treo smartphone released by Palm yet. Windows mobile 6.1 is excellent and all of the features are very fast and responsive. The email is excellent, intuitive and easy to use, as is the phone and contact list.

Pros: Wi-Fi, smaller than any other palm phones, fast internet Rev EVDO, windows mobile 6.0
Cons: Very short battery life...cant use all the cool functions unless you are plugged in. Very slow processing at times, small screen
Summary: I had to return my phone after 21 days because the phone just died. Would not turn on or charge. Had lots of problem with the battery right from the beginning. I just thought I had a defective phone...but when I asked the Sprint sales rep, he said... read more >>

"Great phone if you don't have to use it...."
Pros: Tons of features...
Cons: Horrendous battery life.
Summary: I had the Pocket PC and had to upgrade to an extended battery. This clumsy MS Operating system is shared by both phones. What good are a ton of features if the phone only stays charged for half of the day? The nav screens are convoluted, getting aro... read more >>
