The Treo 750 actually looks exactly what a PDA should look like-when visualised in our minds eye. It's got that curvy body that looks hot while not ruining ergonomics one whit. The build quality is great, but not excellent. The finish is a rubberised matte, which wears well. The full QWERTY keypad actually works wonders with its excellent lay-out and intuitive feedback-you needn't bother about typing out even the longest email, and this will definitely be a point that corporate users will fall in love with. The Sty s is also top notch in terms of byild, and combined with an excellent touch screen works well. The entire device is built to fit your hand well, and there's something very, very PDA like about the Treo 750.
Palm now uses WM5.0 for their entire high-end PDA range and their own Palm OS for the cheaper PDAs. We have to say that WM5 works well on this Treo, although WM6.0 Pro would have been even better. The 2.6 inch screen is quite clear and a pleasure to work with, somehow the absence of a larger screen isn't so sorely missed here. Document creation and PDF reading are supported and Outlook 2005 makes mailing a no-hassle affair.

Now for the bad-no extra applications were bundled aside from those that are part of the WM5 install. On handsfree call quality is mediocre. We'd like WM6.0 Pro, and a slightly faster processor, and more inbuilt user memory (60 MB is downright I insufficient). The Ireo 750 doesn't do anything I irreparably wrong, but it could do a few more things right (mentioned above). As it stands, it's a mighty useful and functional PDA for business users.
