Does anyone use one of these so called smart phones? My boss wants me to upgrade to one, he's paying :D, and my choices are a Palm Treo or an HP. The treo is palm based, cingular and our wireless email doesn't support the new pocket pc based treo, or the HP which is windows based. I personally don't care for palm but it seems to have a few more features and is cheaper. I am just wanting to know if anyone has uses either of these and how you like them.

Our wirless email doesn't support blackberries. It is their direct competition. You might be switching over before too long after blackberry goes under :D

So you have 2 BEZ servers? That pretty impressive since they are about 400k+ /.

I have the Treo 600, which is good but a little buggy. From what I hear, the 650 runs much smoother, and has bluetooth, so has a lot more functionality.

The Treo line is really handy, though. Email works great, websurfing is surprisingly good. You can also use it to plug into your laptop to give you internet connectivity wherever you can get a cell signal. You can play mp3s on it.

If you're mostly doing email, then I guess the blackberry might be a bit better since it has a bigger keyboard. But all in all, I have few complaints about my Treo.

How do you transfer an mp3 to the treo 650?
