Who on here uses a Palm Treo and give me some input on what they like/don't like about it. For work I use a company provided Palm and have my 2 year old crappy mobile which is dying a slow death. I did some internet research but want to hear some user feedback. Any info would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance

Don't have one but looked into them briefly. Some things to consider:
It's rather big and bulky to use as a phone. Might get uncomfortable on longer convos. You can't simultaneously use it as a phone and a palm if it's pressed against your face. I would assume there's a lock screen feature, but a friend who had one said as he had it pressed against his face to use it as a phone, his face would scroll through menus on the screen.

It might work great for some people, but I think there comes a point where integrating too many devices into one shell crosses a line and begins to hinder the user. There are times when I don't need to have my schedule and all with me, just the phone. I appreciate the fact I can just tote a little thing around. Makes life easier

Yeah, what if your talking on the phone and need to jot something down or check an address or something?

Well you could always get an earpiece, but not every one's into those. Plus if you're going with a bt one that's extra cost to consider to make the device more user friendly.

Ok, the Google ads in between the posts is damn annoying!

I'm going to need to get a cell phone in the next month.
What's the good deals around?
I've been hammered by the ads down here- family share plans, roll over minutes etc but I'm not sure of the latest in Canada.
I will be adding at least 2 phones for the kids soon as well.

Any thoughts?

I really like the razr.. solid phone.
