Well I think compared to you guys I've not used Palm at all. Palm III was the first, bought in 1996. It was a gr8 device. I had lots of data, contact nos. Once on changing the battery, lost all my data. I had never backed the data at all. Big loss. Still managed, re-entered data.
Sony CLIE PEG-S300. Good device, but I feel Palm was better. Different drivers and stuff. Did regular backups. Truesync was a gr8 software. It allowed to sync outlook, Palm Desktop and Palm Handheld. Bought this in Jan 1998/9, don't remember and was furious with Sony as they came out with colour model in Feb. Tungsten C - bought in Jan 2004. Happy to be back with Palm. Very nice device. Had it for a year and returned as "c" could not be pressed well. Did not take a replacement. Then was using Nokia communicator 9500. Very good phone. No vibrator. It not sync well with outlook. It screwed up my contacts which doubled to 8000. I'm still feeling the pain. Treo 680 - bought in Feb 2007. Going good, very happy. Missing certain features which I enjoyed on Nokia communicator 9500 like schedule a sms with date and time, set call alert where on reminder it shows the no to dial - so simply hit the green button and u're dialing the no. It had FScaller - Full Screen caller. When someone calls, photos of the caller with other details like the company, name, email work phone, notes, whatever you select is displayed. One could send/forward a sms to more than 10 people as compared to restriction on treo 680. There was no limitation of no. of contact nos. of a person. I had added the marketing calls to a name caller block up to 125 nos. One can enter a different name for the contact no. like Factory. No limitation on the Categories. If someone is aware of any of the above feature available on treo 680 do let me know the program and the link also would be appreciated.

Never had a Tungsten W or C. Didn't have all the Clies from Sony. Haven't gotten any of the new PDA-only machines since the Treo (no TE or TX; no Lifedrive). Other than that I had nearly all of them. The Treo IX is my name for the Linux (hence IX) based (PalmIX) new Treo that's supposed to be out later this year. I think that would be a great name for it, but I have no idea what it'll really be called. Treo IX rules!! OK, maybe I'd better get a 755p first, if they do one for Verizon . . .
