I now have the Treo 600. It arrived at lunchtime and it’s all nice and registered with Orange.<\/p>\n
My first thoughts after using it are:-<\/p>\n
Thank goodness! Orange haven’t diddled with the software much.. one splash screen when you turn the phone part on or off, some set-up options for e-mail and that seems to be it.<\/p>\n
The keyboard is a little fiddly to use but OK for me. I doubt someone with larger fingers would be able to use it easily, however.<\/p>\n
Although the machine doesn’t have graffiti entry for text it does for menu options! :-\/<\/p>\n
It’s smaller and lighter than my Palm Pilot Pro except for the protruding aerial. The screen is crisp and bright and can be seen well at high angles. I don’t mind the relative low resolution of 160×160 as this is the same as the Pilot Pro I’m replacing.<\/p>\n
Oh, and the camera takes OK pictures and Orange supply a 32MB SD\/MMC card which is a pleasant surprise as it doesn’t mention this in the package contents when you buy the machine.<\/p>\n
Methinks Handspring are getting Motorola to build the machines for them. Not that there’s any give away’s to this relationship other than the power-pack is a Motorola one and the device is manufactured in Mexico. Oh no, no evidence at all.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
