Smartphone reviews: Palm Treo 680

What is great for me from this Palm Treo 680 PDA of course about its reasonable price. I mean with the features that they offer inside this device, I think it's worth to spend money on buying Palm Treo 680. Of course you should look back again to the year 2006 since this model was from that year. And of course about the price, you should look back at that year too, without comparing the market price that you will get nowadays.

When I looked back to some pictures, I still think that this Pal Treo 680 is such a cute models even there are so many model compete in the market. I don't know, maybe it's just a matter of taste, that it's not really difficult to carry, in other word it's very handy device, and it has nice color compare to previous model too.

But let me show you some details about this Palm Treo 680 PDA.

Details :

- built for affordable price
- It holds well in hand and grips better due to its more angled in sides,
- slimmer size than the previous series
- built on Palm OS 5.4.9, has 64MB of memory available
- available for Cingular network
- 320 x 320 color LCD, VGA camera, integrated Bluetooth 1.2
- has volume controls on the left side and up and down keys are separate controls,
- has a smooth black portion on the top which contains the IR window and the silent mode switch
- Treo 680 has dimensions of 2.29" x 4.40" x 0.8" inches and weighs in at 5.5 ounces
- this model was the first model to be made available in a variety of colors
- available in four different color of choices : graphite (gray), copper (orange), Arctic (white) and crimson (red)

Even there are many people like this model so much, of course we should consider about pros and contras too.

Pro :
- great design
- integrated Blue tooth with the ability to use it as a wireless modem
- enough memory space to be used
- very easy to use even it's for the beginner.

Contras :
- We can't integrated with Wi-Fi connection which is for some people is an essential thing
- the speaker-phone is not really good quality
- the camera which also built inside this PDA device, is not really good enough to make sharp pictures.
