<p>After 1 year, it first released. I have to review in another way to make this differ from others but anyway it also has the same topic with others to make it look like review. ;-) <br> First thing about Treo, treo series is former Handspring line that palm take over few years ago. In this case, It likes a win-to-win situation because Handspring didn't have enough fund to make treo650 real and Palm also wanted to cover in wireless device and surely had an opportunity about financial status to fulfil handspring dream. That's it! At last, Treo650 released in a name of PalmOne, in that time. Treo650 is an upgrade version of Treo600, that's why they have the similar body, maybe because of success of Treo600, actually I think they think this body is kind to easy using one-hand operation; it is! that is the one prominent factor of buyer's reason. Take a look to design of Treo. <br>In a box: <br>Sprint PCS Vision: Smartphone Device Treo 650 smart phone includes; <br>• Treo 650 smartphone <br>• USB sync cable <br>• Travel Charger, including power adater line (from DC male to treo) <br>• 1 stylus <br>• headset <br>• CD-ROM <br>• Printed Materials <p><img src="http://one.mycapsules.com/palm/review/007/box1.jpg"> <img src="http://one.mycapsules.com/palm/review/007/box2.jpg"> <img src="http://one.mycapsules.com/palm/review/007/box4.0.jpg"> <img src="http://one.mycapsules.com/palm/review/007/box3.0.jpg"> <img src="http://one.mycapsules.com/palm/review/007/adapter.jpg"> <img src="http://one.mycapsules.com/palm/review/007/adapter_compare.jpg"> <img src="http://one.mycapsules.com/palm/review/007/cable.0.jpg"> <img src="http://one.mycapsules.com/palm/review/007/power.0.jpg"> <img src="http://one.mycapsules.com/palm/review/007/stylus.0.jpg"> <img src="http://one.mycapsules.com/palm/review/007/book.jpg"> <p> Fortunately, There is no cradle anymore since T|T5, first released of multiconnector, but I'm quite impressive that Sprint gives us a manual. I have no idea about other product but most palm device that I bought, they rarely gave me a manual book, just only in PDF format. Hmm maybe only Palm Vx that has a manual book included. ;p And I prefer a paper box! not a plastic one. Something I have to concern is adapter, it doesn't have universal plug type like my old one, maybe they this it is a sprint treo, then noone wanna use aboard :-/ <br>Design: <p><img src="http://one.mycapsules.com/palm/review/007/model5.jpg"> <p> This style of phone like Treo is object to how ease to use not how cute it is. That's why some people, or more than that, decide to avoid using Treo but another HTC device such as O2 mini, O2 Atom or else. Anyway there still have people who prefer to use Treo to others, not most of asian, palm addicted maybe. I'm not sure about antenna of treo also, why it still has, because of signal strengh? I don't think that is a problem, if you see Nokia 3310, it had released more than 5 years w/o outside antenna but its signal strengh is not weak but good. Perhaps they didn't want to redesign all of Treo ;p or they want this to be unique of Treo series, like it still has in Treo700w. <p><img src="http://one.mycapsules.com/palm/review/007/model4.jpg"> <p> Look at the top, in GSM model there has SIM slot that differs from CDMA model, I wish next model Palm should merge GSM and CDMA together like Blackberry, if it happened, it will be awesome :-) turn back to our topic, on the top there have infrared port, sound on/off switch, stylus, and SD slot. It's a very good idea to have sound switch to make it silent easy but there is something not good on the top, that is, SD slot, this slot is not deep enough to make sure a SD will not eject accidentally. If you look at a plastic SD that comes with Treo, you will see that perfectly suit with this slot. I don't think designer forget to make it with a real SD but I don't know why it be like this. For eject comfortably? I don't think so. <p><img src="http://one.mycapsules.com/palm/review/007/sd.jpg"> <img src="http://one.mycapsules.
