I really liked the Treo 750. Its shape fitted my hand perfectly, even when it was a bit thicker than I liked. But now I have the Samsung i780, which is a similar device (touchscreen, QWERTY keyboard), but with functionality that looks a lot like the new Treo (WiFi, 320x320). It also has built in GPS (can't find if the 800 will have that), and a bloody fast processor. And is half the thickness of the Treo (nice when carried in your pocket), while still fitting my hand perfectly. The Samsung has (very) slightly worse one hand operation (the Palm enhancements of Windows Mobile are excellent, but the Samsung is quite easy to control with one hand as well), and no threaded SMS (which will come with the Windows Mobile 6.1 upgrade that has been announced). The only real dislike I have is the Samsung specific connector for charging and headphones (bwargh), but that's not enough to keep me from using it. All in all I agree with glw35: give me a formfactor like this over touchscreen keyboards or slider devices anytime.
