Need help choosing

[n1c0_ds]

I wanted to buy a Palm, I now have a Z22 (the easiest and cheapest)
I wanted a phone, I have an old nokia 1660 phone (STANDARD AND BULKY)

So I really need your help to buy a great smartphone. I'm open minded, but since I always have my PDA in my pocket, no bulky stuff.

If possible:

-Not too bulky :(
-Card extention and headphone extention :)
-Hi res (if possible a 320x480) :D
-Multimedia capability :D
-Wi-Fi (bluetooth isnt for me) :D
-Price may enter in consideration, but not TOO much. :o

Do you want your smartphone to replace your Z22. It's capabilities would; be it a Palm, Windows, or Symbian device?

Palm or pocket pc, great performances, and high res (or 240x320).

Okay. There are a number of pocket pcs out now that fit your need from seveal carriers. On the Palm OS side, the Treo 650 would be a good fit, except it doesn't offer Wi-Fi. The goes for the Treo 700w (a Pocket PC Phone) from Palm, Inc., except that one can be upgraded to Wi-Fi through an SD card.

Do you have a particular carrier in mind?

That would narrow help narrow down your choices. Also, do like the BlackBerry-like QWERTY thumb-keyboards? They're pretty common now in Pocket PC Phones.

Well... the Treo looks great, but wi-fi card will just get me bored and make me want to change after a few months. I want a smartphone to save place in my pockets, but as I use my phone I may just get a Dell Axim x51v. Da bomb.

Whatever the only available devices near my place are the Treo (600 or 650) and the Samsung device. Both are high in cost and I would need to change my phone contract($$$)

So my final choice: DELL.com. Cuz' it's reliable, available and because it's the only internet site I trust for credit card ops.
Thanks for the help!

I went to futureshop a few days ago and I made a final decision. It will be A palm T|X, or a Treo650 if I have more budget :)

If you're looking for a smartphone, then I'd go with th Treo. Then you'd be able to make phone calls and surf the Web and get e-mail via cellular service. The TX only works with Wi-Fi.

uhun, the tre is great buty is around 700$ can bucks, while the T5 is only 428$. Maybe I'll buy one when my cellphone contract will end.
