Now you can use just one device instead of many to get it all done. The Treo 600 seamlessly combines a full-featured mobile phone and Palm OS organizer with wireless applications like email, text messaging, web browsing and even a digital camera. And you get it all in one device that's so small it fits right in your pocket.

Summary
In my opinion the Treo 600 (and 650) is to date the most perfect combination of size and ability in a PDA/phone. I purchased it because I constantly found myself leaving my PDA at home or in the car when I could have really used it. Since I always keep...
Strength
The perfect size, tons of features, speaker phone, internet access
Weakness
new ones aren't cheap, battery is permanent, poor digital camera
Bottom Line
The Treo 600 is the perfect combination of size and functionability. If you like the Palm OS and find yourself juggling a phone and PDA, this is the perfect companion.

Summary
I have always been a Palm OS user (started with the 128kb Palm). I love the OS and think that it is still a viable OS for handhelds – especially when compared with WinCE (aka PocketPC or Windows Mobile or whatever Microsoft is calling it these...
Strength
Palm organizer and phone.
Weakness
Some serious system problems, terrible camera, lackluster reception.
Bottom Line
Purchase only if you can deal with some serious system issues. Decent smartphone.
I am HUGE into text messaging. I am a very straight to the point kind of person and that is the reason I love text messaging so much. It's very straight to the point. So when I saw that they were making phones with the QWERTY keyboard I just had to take...
Strength
Fast and easy text messaging, chat threads
Weakness
Bad Reception, large in size, slow internet
Bottom Line
I would not recommend this model but would recommend the newer Treo 700. Same features but the bugs have been fixed making it a lot better
I guess if you are looking at a Treo, you would be looking for the capabilities of the PalmOS, because otherwise I see no reason to even consider it. The first thing I did, was put the screen protector on the screen, because I did not want to gamble...
Strength
Battery life, keyboard, easy of use, design, speakerphone capable.
Weakness
Antenna, not so bright screen, speakerphone feedback, internet browsing.
Bottom Line
Recommended to those looking who just need the attention this phone will bring. Those who direly need a Palm and don't want to carry multiple gadgets.
I have owned a Treo 600 for 2.5 years.... actually, I had my original one replaced twice in that span, so I'm on my 3rd version of the original buy. Palm has been a company I have tried to remain loyal and faithful to for many years, going back to...
Strength
great software (Palm OS)
is all-in-one (when working)
Weakness
bulky
finicky
service-prone (from a bad Service company)
I have had a Treo 600 since April, I purchased it directly from Handspring through their Treo upgrade program. The upgrade deal basically allows for something close to the "promotional" price from the major carriers *without* being committed to a...
Strength
Palm OS means lots of good software. Best balance of phone and PDA so far.
Weakness
Poor camera, slow internet access, mediocre web browsing.
Bottom Line
Well-executed phone. Pricey but the best balance between phone and PDA currently on the market. Palm OS remains far superior to PocketPC at this point in time.
I wanted this phone because I want both a cell phone and a PDA, but I don't want to have to carry around two devices. I first tried the older Treo 180 and 270 models, but they had their own problems (will write separate reviews for them). I wanted the...
Strength
Palm OS! Good Color Screen. Great keyboard. Easy to use. Memory card slot.
Weakness
EVIL BUZZ in phone. Camera next to useless. Occasionally crashes. Memory card keeps popping out.
Bottom Line
If it wasn't for the EVIL BUZZ, I would have highly recommended it, despite its other more minor drawbacks.
I got my Treo 600 a year ago (Nov 04) because I wanted a palm pilot with a phone, period. I was tired of carrying both and with keys, wallet, glasses case, it was either consolidate or get a man purse: not an option. I had become dependent on both my...
Strength
Good palm, nice color screen, nice to have phone and palm in one device.
Weakness
Serious bugs with phone, lousy camera.
Bottom Line
Get the 650 and prepare to drop another few bills in a year or two when someone figures out how to fix the problems with this phone.
I love my Treo 600! Being one of the few who had a Handspring Visor Deluxe with the VisorPhone module - which was great, because it worked in bright light conditions. This was unlike the cool, but unpredictable Treo 160 which locked up all the time when...
Strength
Long Battery Life
Every feature has different ways to be accessed
Weakness
Camera is 1.2 Mega Pixel
Can not be used as a modem
Bottom Line
I recommend the Treo 600 to ANYONE who has data (notes, images, text, etc) that they need with them 95% of the time. It is VERY helpful.
wonderful phone, easy to use, would recommend to all

Summary
This phone is fantastic. As a Real Estate agent I find this phone offers everything I need for my business. When on the road, I can check emails and web sites. I can talk on the phone while inputting info onto the calendar. I use it as a pager as...
Strength
Easy to use, qwerty keyboard, many options and durable not fragile
Weakness
lack of ability to download large pages from web, erases items when battery dies
Bottom Line
buy this phone if looking for all inclusive phone. I've used friends phones to compare, even they are amazed and envious of ease of use and compact nature.
