Love it!
15 of 19 Yahoo! Users found this review helpfulPros: Aesthetically gorgeous, easy to use, amazing clarity, improved almost everything.
Cons: Some functions have an extra step added from Palm OS
Wow, what a gorgeous phone this is. About a year ago, I dispensed with a home phone (too many phone numbers, too much $$) and have been using my Treo 650 as my one-and-only since then. I wanted to try the 750, see if there was any improvement, particularly in sound quality. You know what? Everything is great - in usual Treo fashion - and well worth the extra $$ spent to upgrade. The sound quality is markedly improved. Two of my biggest reasons for Treo over Blackberry are (1) aesthetics; this is a sleek, slim phone with a great QWERTY keyboard and a stylus (I'm partial to the stylus) and (2) having a camera phone. Although this purports to be the same 1.3 megapixel as the 650, I notice a huge improvement in picture quality. The messaging functions are also hugely improved -- the phone does just about everything but reach out and grab your arm when you have a message, text message or reminder. I love this phone! ...

Great Phone Now & Later
1 of 1 Yahoo! Users found this review helpfulPros: Has absolutely EVERYTHING...
Cons: Not one!!
I've had mine for about a year now. Believe me, it was worth its rather expensive price. It is cutting edge. The newer model, the P9010, has a tiny keyboard (for e-mail and text messaging) built into the flip side of the mouthpiece -- way cool. I'm wondering if there's a way I can upgrade the P900. Even without the keyboard, I love it. Has great battery life and all the best technology. Very easy to use. I took it out of the box, turned it on, and it was in use with no fuss or confusion. I also love the sound quality -- it sounds like you're talking on a land line, and not a cellphone.
Does it get any better? I think not. ...
So Far The Best One

Cons: Lacks the ease of use of a Treo
Why can't one phone just have it all? I keep looking. I just set aside my Treo 750 for the AT&T 8525, with only a few regregs. This phone does many things so much better. First, the sound quality is simply excellent, and I don't know about you, but for me, that's up there at the top of what's important. I was really sick of my calls always getting dropped. It has a bigger screen, with the capability of making everything nice and large for viewing. I was tired of squinting at my tiny little screen. I love the ease of use of a stylus AND a scroll wheel AND a touch screen. All excellent. Battery life on the Treo 750 was what put me over the top... it was ridiculously bad. The 8525 is a huge improvement.
And yet... I miss the amazing "Today" screen of the Treo 750, with the keyboard right there. Its ease of use is the best yet, in my opinion.
Oh well... I'll have to deal. I need a phone I can rely on all the time, and this one is it, even though it takes some extra steps to get from here to there. ...
