Hp ipaq 910
Does anybody have this smartphone?
Any comments/beefs? I'm looking to update my Treo650 and need a phone with a physical keyboard. It seems to fit the bill with me as it as 3G, wifi, lots of internal mem and has SD expanability. Main issue that I'm hearing is the battery either getting hot or not lasting long (of course all depends on usage, location). This is from PC Magazine and other forums / sites that I've visited to date. Your 2 cents are greatly appreciated.

Does your current Treo use the Palm OS? If so, switching to Windows mobile may be more stressful than getting a newer model Treo. I like my 680 - it's a good phone and runs all my apps well. Just don't show anybody the pics you take with the camera, they're pathetic.

Ya, my 650 has the Garnet OS (Palm). It's very good and has been a reliable sidekick.
The sticking point for my 650 is the memory, not enough of it. My wife has the 680, but too bad it doesn't have 3G. She offered me her new 680, but I didn't want to take it from her. I was eyeing it as well. From what I've heard WM has come along way from WM 5 to 6.1 which is supposed to be more stable. Quote:

The Treo 750 has 3G and uses miniSD cards for memory. I'm thinking of getting a new iPhone, but I mostly use my phone as a toy, not really for work.

I use a blackberry for work so the phone will be a toy at the same time checking for personal emails while on the road. I want a pocket sized mobile computer.
iPhone is not my cup of tea due to the lack of a hard keyboard, and no expandability even though it already has 8GB as a start.
