    Yeah, My dad still has his treo 755p on sprint. I am trying to make him get a new phone, being that at a younger age I love new technology, but he wont budge. He even told me that the day it breaks on him, which he vows it never will, he just might cry.

    i have the Palm Treo 700wx, and it is one the best phones i haveever had…. would give it 5 stars, over the Voygar, ev2,samsung alis, and even over the doid! (my dad has one, they look nice, bu not really…. the touch screen goes a lot, and with the palm it NEVER goes out.

    The device was actually very quick throughout the video. I must say I was impressed

    I still own a 700w. Sure it has it’s flaws, and i’ve moved on to the Omnia i910 but its still one of my favorite smartphone’s i’ve owned. Thanks for this throwback! :)

    Excellent, Brandon!

    Can’t wait to see you reminiscing on the Nexus One around 2015 ;)

    It ran a Microsoft Smartphone 2002 OS, had infrared (no BT) and a stand-by time of up to 96 h and a talk time up to 4 h (860 mAh li-ion battery), but eventually after a year or two I had to charge it every 2 hours. Moreover, this phone supported a SD or MMC card and a seperate camera which was an accessory.
    And back in 2003 (when it came out), this was about the only device with Internet and video playback (*.3gp in TCPMP)… Now that’s what I’m talking about…

  9. TheDisneyChannelNL says:

    I used to have a Motorola MPx200 back then. It featured a
    TI OMAP 710 133 MHz processor;
    32 MB of ram, like this device;
    8 MB Internal Memory
    2.2” (which was quite large back then, even on the box it says ‘large color display’) 176 x 220 pixels TFT display, and a second 80 x 48 pixels (monochrome) display.

    thank you

    You really should show us how things like the browsers and things performed, to really appreciate how far we’ve come, in only a few short years.

    I used to love palm’s devices (well I like the ones they make now too lol) but I remember when I was young and I thought that the treos looked so cool and I always wanted one, and then I got a palm pilot which was awesome. Palm OS was actually an awesome OS back in the day.

    my mom has an old palm treo with palm OS and i gotta tell you, its fantastic

  16. WhiteRussianBC says:

    I bet if you named it the iPhone 700w it would sell like hotcakes even today

  17. duckie1313 says:

  18. hsj440 says:

    I totally loved using this phone back in the day. Their keyboard was amazing for the time. My Calculus professor actually still uses this, I notice it on his holster each day. haha
