I have been considering a Treo to use for remote communications and remote access to email and our companies servers. Has anyone on here used aboth a Treo and T5 and can tell me what I lose between the T5 and Treo be sides the phone?

After taking a look at the treo, I am considering now getting a Tungsten T5 and a bluetooth compatible phone.

Other than screent size and phone is there any other differences between the two devices?
 
I'm not sure why anyone would use both a T5 and a Treo 650. I've used a Treo 600 and have a T3. Hands down the T3 is vastly superior to the Treo 600 in both speed and resolution. Plus you can landscape the T3 as you can the T5.

That said.....if my company wasn't in the process of migration to a blackberry 7100t.....I'd would own a Treo 650.

The sheer convenience of a "one-converged" device is ideal for my needs. If your plans of using a T5 with a BT phone for email purposes is the driving desire to have a T5, don't bother. Go with the Treo 650.

You'll grow tired of the having to carry two devices (actually 3 with a headset) to access email. If your going to be using a laptop or PC to handle "heavy" mail then stick with the 650.

If your going to replace a laptop with a handheld and you need lots of memory to run lots of programs then by all means go with the T5 but if your planning on email and a few programs then go with just the 650.

I've got 32MB available on the 600 with about 16MB being used and another 125MB worth of pictures and data files on the SD card and all of them are "useable" at any time because of the way the 600 handles the exchange or viewing of these other SD files.

And if you travel.....carrying only one device through the security at the airport is much easier than carrying two and having the magnetics set off.
