Introduction

I was looking and looking; hoping beyond hope that someone would come out with the dream gadget – the all-in-one mobile phone that did it all! I thought that the Motorola MPx200 was going to be the light in the darkness but as it turned out – it was more the candlelight in the darkness as opposed to the blinding light that I was desperately looking for. So the search continued with hope fading fast. However there were rumors out there of a new force – one that would blow the minds of all of those disenchanted with current all-in-one devices. Would there be hope renewed with this rumor? Having been disappointed time and time again, I wasn’t going to put much faith in what I was seeing in the news or hearing through the rumor mills. I had to just see it to believe it. Ok – enough of this metaphorical talk – I’m here today to talk about the coolest Smartphone to have hit the market as of yet – it’s none other than the Handspring/PalmOne Treo 600. Over the last week, I’ve been using the new Treo 600 as my primary mobile phone and personal digital assistant and my friends – the smart phone has finally come of age! Let’s take a look at this beauty.

Packaging

I obtained the Treo 600 designed for use on the Sprint PCS network. The Sprint version of this handset is black compared to the silver trim found in the other Treo 600's for T-Mobile and AT&T. PalmOne took approximately a week to ship out the Treo 600 although I had expected an even longer wait considering the high demand for this phone. The Treo comes in a standard white Sprint PCS box that is common with nearly all Sprint PCS mobile phones.
