Summary: *** PLEASE DONT BUY THIS PHONE *****
Review: I've been using this phone for 11 months and I'm waiting for one more month to get over so that I can go for another phone without breaking the contract.
Pros:
Reception is good.
Cons :
This phone gets reseted automatically, if there is no charge left .. and it has reseted about 10 to 15 times past 11 months... So i have lost most of the contacts cos it erases everything... Ofcourse u can sync it with computer and have those contacts saved, but u dont want to sync it with computer every time u add a contact expecting the phone to get reseted anytime...
I have got problem with missed calls and voice messages, sometimes it wont indicate that there is a missed call or voice mail....
It is very big to be a cell phone and sometimes it sucks....
I'll highly recommend people not to buy this set, I'm not saying this just by using for 2 or 3 months, I have used close to one year and had lots of bad experiences with this phone...
I'ld have given 0 stars if they have one ....

Summary: Handspring Treo 300
Review: I've had this phone for 3 months. It is my first PDA. I love the PDA capabilities combined with a cellphone. I've had no problems with battery life. I am disappointed over how difficult it is to figure out how to access my email account. One has to download Eudora(or similar program) to access your email. Yet, in my case, it still does not work. (I called Sprint tech support several times, and no one seems to know how to make it work!). I also am disappointed about the browser not being able to read Java script. Also, the flip-top lid is now cracked right below the hinge. I've read past reviews about the delicacy of the lid, and I have been extra careful with it, and I have not droppped the phone. So, the breakage may be from wear and tear? I disappointed that this occurred after only 3 months. Overall, I like the idea of a PDA/cell phone combo. But, this one needs more work!

Summary: You'd be better off with a tin can
Review: Sprint should be ashamed of themselves! Their service is just horrible. If you're outside on a clear day, their phones work nicely. But if you're anywhere inside (house, apartment, business office) you know you will be cut off during the middle of an important call. I have gone through three phones with this company and not one of the phones are reliable. The free evening and weekend long distance minutes are a joke because you cannot get a signal to patch the call through. The Treo 300 is beautifully designed, but it's like a gorgeous body without any soul. The phone calls are an embarassment (as is Sprint's customer service) to modern technology. The Sprint Vision Internet service is slightly better but you have to wait long periods of time to connect and often the phone shuts off and you have to reset because the Internet failed! It's not just Sprint's fault though. The Blazer Internet service that the Handspring Treo offers is often not able to provide any results in your on-line searching and since it doesn't have Java Script capability, you have limited choices in what sites you can use. The stylus has problems as well in that it doesn't always "pick up" what is on the screen, the screen itself being so delicate you're almost afraid to apply anything to it.

Summary: Treo 300 Review
Review: The item looks more like "used refurbished" than "like new" as described, but works good and came with lots of accessories. Overall great value. Thanks.

Summary: Ups and downs, overall great economical PDA/cell
Review: The keyboard format is awesome, because I can't stand graffiti. My cover has never broken, but I would advise anyone to purchase a case for this phone. The battery isn't easily replaced, but a little googling and you'll find websites that sell replacement batteries for $25 and include instructions for installation. It's not rocket science, trust me. Otherwise, some people get their undies in a twist over the lack of voice-dialing, but I don't mind. I just use the shortcut keys for the speed dial option. It's not a great driving phone. If you're a commuter cell-phone chatterbox, this is not your phone. If you're a professional or a student with PDA experience, a little patience, and a budget, this would be perfect for you. Don't buy it new...MAJOR RIPOFF. Get it used here or on ebay.

Summary: Great product; lousy support (from 3 different companies!)
Review: The phone works fine (but only with the earbud -- without it, the volume is inaudible); the PDA is great; the two together simplify, and improve life. Between them, however, Handspring and Sprint (and now Palm) make it hard to get simple questions answered, and impossible to answer hard questions. Why can one only get a replacement earbud from Handspring, and not Sprint? Why wouldn't two different Sprint store managers know that? Why would they keep giving out Sprint earbuds -- for free! -- that don't work? Why would they need to keep the Treo 300 for two days to figure that out? Don't get me started on the week it takes to get a replacement earbud via Fedex! Not to mention the unavailability of replacement styluses! Exclamation points! Still and all, good is better than perfect, and I look forward to upgrading to a Treo 600 when they get the backlog problem sorted out and the cost comes down.

Summary: A Very Good Product
Review: The Treo isn't the best at all the things it does, and that's OK. What is does do well is pull together several applications and allow the user to accomplish of number of tasks with one device. For those of us who don't like carrying a lot of hardware around, it's a welcome compromise. I've found over the last 8 months or so that I've had the Treo that I use it heavily, and to me, that is the test of a useful product. The only complaint I continue to have is with the battery life. Since the device does not allow for battery changeouts, it does limit the time between re-charging. Other than that one complaint, I think the Treo is a real step forward.

Summary: poor quality
Review: This handset was terrible. It automatically erased memory twice for me, and the cover fell off once for no good reason. I would not reommend this product to anyone.

Summary: good device
Review: This is a good device to replace my Visor and phone. One thing to charge and keep track of.
