There's been a lot of press recently about people who are less than thrilled with the Windows Mobile 700w version of the Treo. It has its fans, but it is a disappointment to some. It's the first Windows Mobile device from Palm, so I'd have to say they did rather well, and we will be seeing improvements on that platform just as much as we have seen improvements on the PalmOS side of things.
But when you talk with Treo 650 users, it's remarkable how devoted they get to that little smartphone! I didn't understand it at all until I got one for myself. I just wanted to have a single device with a phone and pda. I thought I was making a big sacrifice in usability. Boy was I wrong! Sure, there are some sacrifices like a smaller screen and less memory. But in return you get a combo device with a great battery life, bright and easy to read screen, one-handed operation and a keyboard, and if you don't mess it up with a particularly unstable program it's also incredibly stable.
Well it turns out that people aren't just addicted to Treo's. They are addicted to all kinds of PalmOS devices. So Palm Addicts is asking the question in their forums, "Are you addicted to your Palm?" It should lead to some interesting discussion. Take a look and share your comments
