Images: 68 | Sprint Palm Treo 755p Review What Came In The Box: 1. Treo 755p 2. Standard Lithium Ion (Li-Ion) Battery 3. AC Travel Charger with Adapter 4. USB Data Cable 5. Headset Pros:
Cons:
What It Lacks as a Phone:
What it Lacks as a PDA:
Programs that I installed:
Reviews of Programs (scale of 1 to 5): CorePlayer (nice program to view movies and videos but I haven't had a chance to test it out yet): ? MiniTones (a nice program to put mp3 clips on your phone for high-quality ring tones): 5 Pocket Tunes Deluxe (a nice program that lets you play songs on your phone): 5 SlingPlayer Mobile (a nice program that lets me stream my Slingbox Pro to my phone): 5 TWC: (I am having issues getting this registered so Handango is currently helping me resolve this issue): ? Volume Care (a nice program that boosts the volume to loud levels and I can hear my custom ring tones now in very noisy environments): 5 ZLauncher (a launcher that can be customized with your own background and customized icons, font colors, etc.): 5 Accessories that I Purchased: Sprint Extended Battery and Door for Treo 755p (2200 mAh)
Would I Recommend This Device: Yes, I would recommend this device due to my Pros and that this is a easy device to use one-handed and it is easy to get used to. Also, I couldn't believe it when I found out all of the customization that you can do with this Palm OS device. In my opinion, this has almost as much customization as WM devices.

Images: 68 | Thanks walkguru. I really like this device a lot and I definitely recommend Palm devices if you are ever in the market for a PDA.

Images: 68 | Thanks Charlyee. Yes, I am very happy with it. I hope I have finally found my device. I think that I have. One thing that made me sell my Mogul was because the picture mail hack was taken away and the onscreen virtual keyboard was a pain and sliding out the keyboard to text or send a short email was a pain. This device allows me to send texts and short emails one-handed which is definitely a big plus for me.

Great review Eric. I was considering getting the Verizon version with my recent upgrade, but opted against any smartphone because of VZ's hideously expensive data plans. It's good to know that the 755p is working out for you. Enjoy!

Images: 68 | Thanks Mike. Yes, Verizon data plans are very expensive. That is one of the reasons that I got a SERO plan last year.

Images: 68 | So are you on a SERO 500 plan now walkguru besides AT&T? That is a nice device. I am actually trying to talk my mom into this phone when we switch in August. But by then, hopefully they will have more options available.

Images: 68 | Well if Verizon wasn't bad in my neighborhood, and we weren't switching to Sprint in August, the Voyager most likely would have been my next phone.
