What is it: Windows Mobile smart phone with 3G
What we think: It's a little chunky and we aren't sure we like the square screen, but one-handed use is certainly possible for many everyday tasks

"Fundamentally flawed"
What I like:
It looks ok, and when it works it's pretty good
What I don't like:
Everyone that has owned one in my business has had to have the handset replaced at least twice because of failures!
Review:
The Treo 750v should be a great phone. It looks good, considering it has a qwerty keyboard, and I like the colour. Initially it took a while to get used to the interface, stylus and keys, but I got there in the end.
However, telephones have one major function - the ability to make and receive calls. Of the original four Treo 750V's that my company purchased everyone of them has been replaced at least twice. The phones have failed due to various faults like not ringing out, failing to charge batteries, failing to hear a person calling you, and not being able to speak to someone whom you have called.
As I said a telephone should succeed to be a device for making and recieiving calls.
On not 1, but 8 occasions this phone failed to be a phone fit for purpose.
If you don't mind a phone which can make and recieve texts on, or browse the internet, or send and receive emails whilst being unable to actually call anybody then please get one.
Otherwise, stay well clear.

BlackBerry Storm 2
Clicking touchscreen may be useful for clumsy people, but ditching the Qwerty keyboard has its drawbacks
INQ Mini 3G
Sluggish at times, and not the easiest phone to use, but it offers a great range of features at a low price
BlackBerry Bold 9700
Has everything that makes the BlackBerry format great, but other smart phones offer more innovation
