Perfect except for it's thickness. It's only 3mm thicker than the HP6900 series, which is pretty thin... But 3mm is a chunk when it's in your breast pocket motorcycle jacket. Yes, not many riders here I'm sure... I'll probably get it when the price is a little more reasonable.

Going from a 650 to a 700w and now with the 750 I can tell you that the 750 feels smaller, lighter and thinner in my hands. It would be great it if was as thin as a Q or the Blackjack, but it feels very nice in my hand.

Best Treo yet by far

Why it is still square screen and only 64MB of RAM ?
What was so difficult to add 80 pixels and double RAM ?
Crap.

What was so difficult to add 80 pixels...

Size. An extra 80 pixels usually adds another 1 to 1.5 cm to the overall form factor.

...and double RAM ?

Unfortunately, there's an extra power requirement with additional RAM.

This is a very nice device. I've held one in my hand and the ergonomics and one-handed use more than make up for its square-screen design IMO. And remember, this device is meant to be more of a phone than a PDA so I don't see why people slam the device for its screen and RAM (although the original 32mb on the Treo 700w could be improved). The only thing that I felt needed a little refinement was the thumb-board. It always seemed a little too stiff to my fingers...maybe it's just me. Also, I like that flip cover the MiniSD slot has - something HTC and others should think about in its devices.

use screen with smaller pixels, benq p80/p81 screen should fit

Axim users who upgraded RAM chip do not see any difference in power consumption

great photos! i wish i could take photos like that for my review :cry: anyway I'm currently using the Vodafone version of the 750v and I'm pretty impressed with it! can't wait for a ROM update to enable HSDPA [I might try the 'fix' if the ROM doesn't come out by end of January]

I did the hack on my 750 form Cingular and it works just great! Just remember to soft reset two times in a row, it really is needed to get HSDPA to work. Here is where I got the information from:

I read the HSDPA hack messes with DUN so I am holding off on it... I have all the files and instructions for it though :wink:
