Hopefully, the 755p is a great improvment over the 700p! 1. It (700p) was one of the worst phones I'd ever used. We eventually found a piece of software which would boost the volume up to where you could nearly hear it most places.
2. We are a Lotus shop. There is a service (ActiveSync?) that would push mail out to your Treo. If you happened to be doing anything else at the time, your Treo would re-boot. (We finally set ours to where it would only sync mail if and when we told it to.) Before we went with Blackberrys, though, the 700p's had far fewer problems than the 700w's. (Our New York office went with the 700w. I believe a number of them are on the bottom of the East River.) Other than those two annoyances, it was my favorite PDA! -- Richard D.
