Reviews of the Palm Treo 600 (Sprint, CDMA)
-
CNET Review
The Good: Improved battery life; built-in VGA camera; SDIO expansion slot; speakerphone; runs Palm OS 5.1; one-handed navigation; supports multiple e-mail accounts; world phone.
The Bad: Cramped keyboard; display isn't high resolution; headphone jack isn't standard size.
The Bottom Line: Handspring's parting shot, the Treo 600, is one of the better blends of phone and PDA that we've seen to date.
