However, I do use a Martin Fields screen protector, that works great.

I agree with you Surur - that's why i like the 755p, it needs no case. The rubberized casing let's you hold it firmly without squirting out of your hands.

Good point Kurt. Unless Palm can quickly get some form of an improved OS that is actually stable and functional, I only see one future path which is in bed with Microsoft. I can clearly picture a Zune/Treo phone in the not too distant future. :hmm: :hmm:

Nice article Bob, you hit it on the head. Hopefully Ed & the boys will have the fear of god/bankruptcy shot into them and they will actually get their software developers to work on a solution/upgrade for the 700p POS. You are right on the lack of Exchange integration as being the only savior...

It will definitely be out before June 06. ;)

Addressing a couple of well pointed critiques: 1) Only an 8gb hard drive - this is irrelevant as you will sync your iPhone through iTunes on your computer. Whatever data you need on the iPhone will sync seamlessly. And not only is 8gb more than 64kb, the treo I think can only use 4gb SD...

It's named iPhone. Apple negotiated a buyout of the iPhone trademark from CISCO. Cisco announced that and their stock is up as well.

Perry - After all the years you've spent slaving away with POS, can you imagine OSX on a smartphone? Never, ever, ever having to experience a reset? The bar has been raised for Colligan & Co. on the OS alone. Palm really has their work cut out for them. I am going to go out on a limb here...

I don't think Steve Jobs is concerned with corporate users. This device is targeted to individuals, not corporations. Just like the iPod.

16 for data only is fine. My concerns are travel oriented. Not trying to be overly cynical as the iPhone is a kick *** product. 8gb storage ipod 3.5" screen audio built in speaker Seamless syncing for contacts, email... Bluetooth 2.0 OSX OS Bluetooth 2.0 2MP camera Intuitive, patented touch...

These prices are with a 2yr contract so the iPhone is about $200 more expensive than a 700p.

iPhone pricing 10:47 am 8GB model - $599 10:47 am 4GB model - $499 I'm not sure if this pricing assumes a 2 yr. contract. If not, it is competitive with the 700 series Treo's.

10:43 am 16 hours just for audio 10:43 am 5 hours of battery life http://www.macrumorslive.com/ 5 hours of battery for TALK time I would imagine. 16hrs is fine for an iPod, but less than 12 as a PDA will not cut it. This could be a deal breaker...

They meant push email in imap, unless you store your calendar and contacts on yahoo as well. Still is only probably pushing the email. This is the exact setup for Chatter.
