Palm Treo 650

I upgraded to the Treo 650 from the LG VX6000 camera phone and I absolutely love the Treo. I wanted a good quality phone and a Palm Pilot and I got both in one product. I opted for the 650 instead of the 700 because of price and the Palm OS rather than Windows. Not much of a Windows fan :(

Pros: the Treo Palm functions are all the same as a normal PDA. The phone functions include an easy-to-use contact list, large on-screen numbers for dialing, speed dials, and call logs for everything. The camera is good quality and the built-in memory holds more than enough pics. I expanded the memory when I put in an external 2GB SD card for mp3's and more pictures. Although I was hesitant to buy the phone because of the small buttons, I have found them quite easy to use since they are arranged liek a normal keyboard. I was pretty good at typing text messages using Smart Text but I have quickly adapted to using the keyboard on the phone.

Cons: Obviously the size is a little heftier than your normal flip phone or Razor but not as annoying as I thought it would be. I use a bluetooth headset so I almost never put the phone up to my ear. The screen is very big for a phone so you need to make sure you put on a screen protector. The SD card is spring loaded so it pops out in my pocket sometimes. You don't really want to lose a 2GB SD card so be careful :(

Overall, any cons are minor compared to the advantages that this sleek phone/PDA offers. I highly recommend it for anyone interested in investing a little in an upgrad.

I'm still getting use to my palm treo 650, how ever I was very pleased with the seller I recieved everything that was stated by seller that I would recieve and the condition was great ,I would recommend buying from ebay and this seller again, I'm very satisfied and happy with my decision to buy.The seller also stated the date that he would ship the phone and I recieved it within 2 days I can't stress enough how happy ebay and this seller have made me, Thanks again to both Ebay and the Seller.

I use it for outlook calendar and address book. It is a fantastic product and this particular phone is brand new.

Neat touch screen feature and full keyboard!!! Loved the color scheme and gets great service! Would recommend to anyone!

buy ebay because I have confidence that what I buy is good have guarantee of which I articulate them good sound but have to say that selling some when the product should be used that it specifies when it is much maltrado that the photo of the article that puts it that one could see clear good the conditions of the article. but I am much happy the ebay

I plan on fixing the phone or use it for parts.The phone arrived on time and in the condition that was stated in the listing.

The only reason that I did not give the phone a excellent rating is because it is too bulky and the card slips out sometimes. It's like having a mini laptop though. I can go online and look up phone numbers instead of dialing information. Overall I am pleased but confused as well because it took me forever to figure out how to get the email to work.

I love this phone totally! Everything about it!!! It takes great pictures, it does not have a flash, but it still takes amazing pictures! It is a great smart phone! It is hard to download bluetooth! But... All and All, it is great!!!

very hard to hear even w headset and max vol .............................................................................................

This phone was listed as a US Cellular phone! So I paid the price. I received the product, took it to US Cellular to find out they don't use that phone! So now, instead of using this with my service I have to go buy a whole new plan??!!! Why bother? Who needs another bill!! FALSE APPLITIZING!!

I upgraded from a Handspring Visor Prism this summer. In many ways I wish I'd done this years ago. The built in camera is nice, not good for detailed pix, but convenient. The keyboard isn't bad, but I really do miss the scratchpad on my Prism. I have learned that the shortcut strokes do work, you simply press the letter instead of a pen stroke followed by the letter. Having a built in SD/MMC card slot is nice. It comes with Real Player, so MP3s are playable immediately. However, you can only hear them if they are saved to the card, and not a folder inside the card (learned the hard way). I stick the card in the computer and transfer that way--it is fast. Recommend at least a 512MB card. 2GB is max (the older style). The 2.5mm phone jacks are not real sturdy, but there are fixes available online. Typically one ear only will be working if it is bad. The photo mgr is a little different, but once you master creating new folders, it isn't too bad. Since it is Palm OS, I simply beamed all of my memos and tasks over from my Prism. Handy and time-saving. Screen color and detail are pretty good. I keep the brightness down to save battery power, but this limits visibility in bright sunlight. Indoors doesn't seem to matter. It will sync with Windows XP and Vista, haven't tried others yet. I can go over a week without recharging. Have not used the phone yet, as I inadvertently bid on a Sprint phone (I have Cingular). All in all, a good PDA.

This PDA smartphone has a lot of the essentials: touchscreen, stylus, the BEST datebook on the market, browsing, push email (with a few tweaking here and there).
PROS: Bright screen, fast OS, user-friendly, easy to navigate, excellent keyboard
CONS: Slow EDGE network, small screen, must download software ($$) to have songs for ringtones

It's approaching antiquity nowadays with all the newer smartphones (iPhone) on the market, but it's a handy, economical tool for business and personal use.

what i like about it it does everythin i want get online email planner i have all my business in my phone what i dont like bout it its pretty big thats all why i wanted it because i always wanted one so i finally got it so thankx

I have to say, this has to be one of the worst phones I have ever owned. It's great if you like to do small tech things like write documents to go, but that's why people invented laptops. Stick to the point. A cell phone is designed to make calls. This phone just does a poor job doing it. It is heavy, the keys are small, screen gets smudgy and the battery life stinks. It's not just one battery, it was all of them. The phone eats battery life like a hog.... I'm telling you....don't buy this phone because it's a piece of garbage! You'll regret it if you do...

I purchased the Palm Treo because because of the combination of a PDA and cellphone. I really wanted to use the PDA to schedule my appointments and keep notes. Unfortunately, the merging of PDA with cellphone gave me a product that was note as good as the individual products are on their own.

PDA: The screen is too small to use effectively. In order to accommodate the dialing pad Palm cut the screen down in size. Be prepared to do a lot of scrolling and squinting if you are trying to read email or any MS Office documents. Also, there is no native support for using the stylus to hand write notes into the PDA - Again, I think this is due to the cellphone keypad. The lack of the ability to quickly hand write notes really killed my enthusiasm for using the PDA.

Cell phone: n my opinion, the Palm Tro 650 has terrible cell capabilities. Almost every call that I make or take is garbled to some degree. The back of the phone gets hot with prolonged use and the PDA screen becomes wet with ear sweat. This is not a phone you loan to someone without having a towel to clean it off afterward.

PROs: You can carry a lot of documents using the SD card. If you're patient and have good eyesight you can even read these documents.

I have always used a Palm organizer and a Verizon cell phone. I thought that this would be an excellent combination of both. I was very disappointed! It was not as easy to use as my Palm E2 and ackward to use as a phone. Neither had the full features of the devices that I was trying to combine. The quality of the Palm Treo 650 was excellent.

I like the many ways and many things you can buy...this was my first time and I make some mistakes but leave and learn now everything I need will buy from E-bay...
thank you for showing me the rops....

I love my Treo, it was in excellent condition. I recieved my purchase within 2 business days after the transaction was complete. If you are in need of anything stingray is the one.....

I needed the Palm organizer benefits and got a good buy on the Treo on an auction. I am very impressed with all the features! I subscribed to the Cingular package and got my email on the go and everything! There is one more thing I am really interested in - the GPS add-on! But for now, after surfing the net a bit and checking my email a few times, I decided the $40 a month for the Cingular package was not worth it for me and dropped that. I love the fact that anything I have entered in the calendar that comes up appears on the phone when I use it so I am reminded. Now if I can only remember to PUT the stuff ON the calendar!

this phone sucked!!! It was for my niece for her birthday and the phone would not stay powered on. I spoke with the shipper at txconnections who gave me instructions on how to reboot it. Still no success with this phone. I shipped this phone back to the txconnections at the beginning of July and have not heard or seen this phone much less a refund!!! This was a 200.00 rip off!!!!!!!!!

I love the fact that this is a phone, PDA, calendar, calculator, video & still camera and GPS device. I have a bluetooth GPS receiver and the delorme (www.delorme.com) GPS software. I can load maps, routes, etc. and get the verbal commands just like on a much more expenseive GPS device without any of these other features.

The drawback? I had to go through 4 units to find one that didn't have some kind of problem. If you are going to get a Treo 650, make sure it is a warranty!

I bought this phone while I was still in the Navy needless to say as with all smartphones it came at a premium price. The phone supports the palm format including much of its software (Except Zire) which is only flawed in its software costs. The phone plays Divx video in any resolution flawlessly with the available free software and the SD support allows you to do this seamlessly unfortunatly this also means that storage for files other then palm installation files can only be transfered to the device with the aid of a card. Not limited to end-user programs but also included ones such as the Real Player which was included as a audio player on the device but lack of stereo support out of the box hinders this feature. The included speakerphone speaker is handy for these videos and a mono cellular headset can be used to make your viewing private, both provide adequate listening volume in a normal environment. The internet browser for this phone is fairly decent in comparison to past wep based phones supporting nearly complete HTML support but no support for a flash plug in currently. Files can be downloaded much in the same fashion as your home pc but are limited in size which strongly hinders the user from downloading music or video and sometimes even software. All in all this is a great substitute to the Blackberry device in terms of cost effectiveness and functionality but as a smartphone it could see to gain a lot from removing the many limitations that both wireless providers and Palm has instilled, this inevitably makes going with the slightly more expensive Windows Mobil based smartphones a more apealing choice for the tech savvy user.

Great phone....personal office in one place..
Lots of download on websites.
But sometime..calls drop, may see frozen screens

I'm going to start by saying this phone is not fantastic. It has great features allowing me to watch movies and keep track track of things easier. As a cell phone, it is not that easy to use. By this, I mean it's hard to just straight up pick up this cell phone and make a quick call like using a VX 3200 by verizon wireless or any kind of flip cell phone at that. You have to have tiny clean fingers in order to use this cell phone. Being the fact that the majority of Americans do not wash their hands frequently, this cell phone gets a boo' as for "as easy to use" do to the fact that it smugges. If you buy this cell phone, make sure it is a 2006 or higher model. IF YOU ARE A TECH SAVY PERSON, BUY THIS CELL PHONE, IF YOU JUST WANT TO A CELL PHONE TO MAKE CALLS QUICKLY, DO NOT UNLESS YOU WANT TO SHELL OUT AN EXTRA $20 BUCKS JUST TO MAKE THE VOICE DIAL FEATURE WORK. Hardly anything in life these days is free.
