Pros:
Win Mobile5--familiar OS; lots of USABLE features.
Cons:
Cannot get good animated weather; 'end' button does NOT end programs.

The Palm 700w has a Windows operating system instead of a Palm system. Only having used Windows in the past, it was easy to 'intuitively' use the features of this phone. The Qwerty keys do seem to be a bit small, but they 'click' and are rounded and just take some getting used to. I LOVE the program "ExpensePlus" on this PDA/smartphone. It makes tracking mileage, expenses, gifts, reimbursements, etc. A BREEZE. The speakerphone is amazingly loud and it is easy to turn it on and off once you get used to clicking "menu" and then the S button. Likewise, delete is always "menu" and the D button. I do NOT like that when you close a program, it is not closed until you go to a separate page and click on "close program" or "close all programs." This seems ignorant to me. I have DROPPED my 700w onto a concrete driveway TWICE and despite the dings, it still works great. I am very satisfied with this purchase. Shop around. Prices vary greatly.
