FWIW, and I'm certainly not advocating for the WinMob Treos, never having used one, but the tech person at the Verizon store today said that while they had many, many problems with the 700w, they've seen next to none with the 700wx. I believe the main difference is that the wx has more memory, hence leaving all the apps open all over the place (aka, multitasking unless you're careful) doesn't cause as many problems.

Been a while, and I am probably biased, but it really seemed harder to do simple thngs on the w. I ruled out a sliding KD device out long ago - no one handed thumb tying on that. If I want a bigger keyboard I just weave all over the road and type on my laptop on my passenger seat. Didn't help that the 700w I looked at locked up a lot. I'll duck on this one but activsync and outlook integration is easier nativly on winmob. I have had several CE PDA's and actually liked the larger format devices.

That is one thing I value as well. Can you really not do the same kinds of things one thumbed with the Windows Mobile Treo? I can see it with the sideways slideout devices like the 8525, but I'd've thought the WinMob Treos (700w, 700wx and 750) would still be one handed friendly.

When I was checking out the 700p & w the kicker for me was the ability to do most things one thumbed on the palm while driving Cant do that with winmob [Non-text portions of this message have been removed]
