I gave up my 700w for the Cingular 750 and I haven't looked back. It is really an awsome device. I was having battery issues initially but once I applied the hack to stop my phone from trying to get my AOL mail every minute things have been wonderful. My battery last much longer than the 700w battery did which is surprising considering the battery is much smaller and the 750's processor is much faster. Getting through the day is no longer a worry. I love the text messaging feature that makes texting more like IMing. I like the way Text Messaging has been separated from E-mail. Also, the new "goto" button in Messaging is nice which allows you to change folders without having to touch the screen i.e. going from "inbox" to "outbox". You no longer have to turn Bluetooth on or off by touching the icon because the menu button on the Today screen now has a "wireless manager" option. I am not in a 3G area and Verizon has the EVDO here but the internet browsing seems just as fast or faster with Cingular. I still have my 700w and when tested side by side the 750 always beats the 700w to a web page. This phone is closer to perfect than any I have had. I have had the HP2215, HP6315, Samsung I730, Treo 700w and now the Treo 750. The most amazing thing of all is my phone has not locked up yet and I have had it for over a week now. No kidding, I have not had to reset the device yet. The increased memory in this phone has solved that problem. My 700w almost always locked up when I tried to do to much at a time. I can't get the 750 to lock up no matter how many programs I am running. The only thing I can find to say negative about the 750 is I wish I could turn up the volume during a call just a notch or two and wifi would be a nice feature too although I would probably rarely use it. I can hear just fine most of the time but if you are in a noisy environment it is difficult to hear. My 700w is plenty loud so I am not sure why they messed with that. I am hoping there will be a fix. The smaller size of this device and the rubberized texture feels so nice in my hand. I have a Vaja Case for my 700w but will definately not need one for this phone. I am not too worried about dropping it because it just feels so much more secure. I am protecting my screen though with the best screen protector available in my opinion. The JAVO Screen 2.0 Ultra Clear. Hope you enjoy yours as much as I do mine! Thanks for letting me share my opinion on this phone.
