Palm Treo 650

Palm Treo 650

The PalmOne Treo 650 boasts all the legendary features of the venerable Treo 600, plus a whole lot more. Now with Bluetooth, a higher resolution screen, a removable battery, and an improved keyboard, the Treo 650 is once again on the cutting edge of Smartphone technology. It offers all the functionality of a high-end Palm OS-powered PDA, a cell phone and a VGA camera. Simply put, it’s the ultimate mobile office companion. Under the hood, the Treo 650 features Palm OS 5.4, 32MB of RAM (23MB available for end user storage), and an Intel PXA270 312 MHz processor. The design retains the same popular form factor as the Treo 600 with a few subtle, yet significant, changes. The unit’s screen has been dramatically enhanced to support 320 x 320 resolution and the full QWERTY keypad has been redesigned for greater ease of use. The top of the unit features an expansion card slot for SD and MMC-based memory and expansion cards. There’s also an infrared port here for line of sight data transfers, as well as a handy switch for turning off the phone’s ringer. A five-way navigator controls most of the phone’s menus and operating system functions, while quick application buttons on either side of the navigator get you to your favorite applications in a snap. The left side of the unit features a volume up/down toggle plus a handy user-customizable button that can be assigned to any phone or PDA function. The rear of the Treo 650 houses a loudspeaker, as well as the VGA (640×480) camera unit. A touchscreen stylus can be tucked away on the right side of the phone. Meanwhile, a combined charging, data, and accessory attachment port is housed on the bottom of the unit, as is a standard 2.5 mm stereo headset jack. The device fully supports SMS and MMS messaging for rapid exchange of pictures, text and video via Cingular’s instant messaging system. Other Cingular services are also supported, such as mobile email and web browsing. The Treo 650’s web browser supports full-size web pages, and you can enter secure pages with 128-bit SSL encryption.

Palm Treo 680


Palm Treo 680
The Treo 680 is more pocket-friendly than earlier models, making it a very good choice for first-time smart phone buyers. The Treo 680 carries over most of the Treo 650’s specs, including its Bluetooth 1.2 and quadband world phone capability. One welcome upgrade is the bump in user-accessible memory from 32MB to 64MB, allowing plenty of room to download one of the thousands of Palm OS applications. The Treo 680 supports SD cards up to 2 GB for storing music and other files. When it comes to e-mail, the Treo 680 is a very capable device. It supports XpressMail, Exchange ActiveSync, and Good Mobile Messaging. Built-in wizards make it easy to set up personal accounts using AOL, Gmail, Yahoo, and more. The included copy of Documents to Go 8.0 supports Word, Excel, and PowerPoint files, as well as PDFs. The EDGE-enabled Treo 680 surfs the Web at a pretty good clip, thanks to Palms smart Blazer browser. n addition, Blazer has been updated. It includes new caching rules making it operate faster. It also includes new viewing modes. The smart phone does have integrated Bluetooth 1.2 for use with wireless headsets, car kits, OBEX, and dial-up networking. The latter means you can use the 680 as a wireless modem for your Bluetooth-enabled laptop; it’s a feature often disabled on other smart phones, so this is a nice benefit of the Treo 680. The Treo 680 supports Dial-Up Networking (DUN) over Bluetooth. This is significant, as DUN allows notebook users to get online by connecting wirelessly to the Treo, which acts as a modem. The VGA camera carries the shutter speed fast enough to capture fidgety subjects. The Treo 680 also makes sharing your photos easy; clicking on the envelope icon after you capture an image presents you the option of sending it via Bluetooth, e-mail, or multimedia message. Anyone on a GSM network can take advantage of it, making the Treo 680 the most accessible smartphone at this price point. While the Treo 680 will invariably be used for business, it’s also intended to be a step up for those looking to do more with their feature phones.

Palm Treo 700wx (CDMA)
The Palm Treo 700wx smartphone delivers everything you need without compromise.

Under the hood, the Treo 700wx features 128MB of RAM (60MB available for end user storage) and an Intel XScale 312MHz processor. The design retains the same basic form factor as the Treo 650 with a few changes. Aesthetically, the new Treo has more angular lines and a more professional-looking gray color. At 6 ounces, it’s also slightly lighter than its predecessor. The button layout above the full QWERTY keyboard has been changed to accommodate the Windows Mobile 5.0 interface, and the screen sports 240 x 240 resolution.Like the 650, the top of the 700wx features an expansion card slot for SD, SDIO, and MMC memory and expansion cards, and get this: Unlike the 650, the 700wx supports the Palm Wi-Fi card. Up top there’s also an infrared port for line of sight data transfers, as well as a handy switch for turning off the phone’s ringer. Below the screen, a five-way navigator controls most of the phone’s menus and operating system functions. The left side of the unit features a volume up/down toggle plus a handy user-customizable button that can be assigned to any phone or PDA function. The rear of the unit houses a loudspeaker, as well as the 1.3 megapixel camera unit. A touchscreen stylus can be tucked away on the right side of the phone. Meanwhile, a combined charging, data, and accessory attachment port, called the Palm “multi-connector” is housed on the bottom of the unit, as is a standard 2.5 mm stereo headset jack. Surf the Web faster than ever before using the bundled Internet Explorer application, or log into Pocket MSN and check your Hotmail, use MSN Messenger, or browse the MSN Mobile portal. Robust SMS and MMS functionality is built into the Windows Mobile interface, too.One of the most important tools bundled with the 700wx is Microsoft ActiveSync, which allows you to quickly synchronize your device’s tasks, calendars, email, and contacts with your desktop. You also get Exchange ActiveSync, an application that lets you synchronize data with an Exchange server. Syncing can be done via USB, or wirelessly via Bluetooth.

An integrated media application organizes your captured photos and videos.And last, but certainly not least, the Treo 700wx keeps the fun going when you’ve got some downtime with great games. Bubble Breaker and Solitaire ship with the handset, but more Windows Mobile games are available.
