Cons: Slow refresh rate. Slow processor. Crashes more than my computer full of viruses.

The Treo 90 In Short .....The Treo 90 is a compact, stylish pda. It's most noticeable feature is it's built-in keyboard. This is a new feature from Palm. There is a backlit, 160x160 standard colour display with 12 -bit colour, over 4000 ...

First let me say that it is nice to see Handspring introduce a new handheld! The Visor line has been so stagnant, that it's time to grow! Good bye to the Visor!! There are a few welcome features on the Treo 90, but a few missing. I've owned many Visors...

Pros: The next generation in handhelds, a step up from the palms of the past
Cons: If you need a mobile communications device, look elsewhere

I've had my Treo 90 for about a year and a half now. I don't know why I didn't write about it sooner. Perhaps I was so busy because it allowed me to remain productive when I'm not in front of my computer? Hmmm.

I have been using PDA's for about 15 years, with most of them being by Psion (3a, 5 & 5MX) and I had an IPAQ 3950 briefly. However this is my first experience of a Palm based product. I have always been a huge fan of the OS and applications built in to...

Why I bought it: I bought this PDA after a lot of debate and research. It eventually came down to the TREO 90 and the Sony Clie PEGSJ22. Just based on hardware vs hardware the Treo easily won the decision. Although the price was almost the same and ...

I bought the Treo 90 in October '02, after considering the pros and cons of several different Palm d ...

Pros: size and weight are great, 16mg memory built in plus expandable
Cons: terrible toll call customer service, business hours only.

I traded up from a Sony Clie 710C primarily for the keyboard and to reduce the size and weight in my shirt pocket where I am used to carrying my PDA.

The only possibly worthwhile feature that the Treo does not share with the Sony is the...

I purchased a Treo 90 after using a Visor Deluxe for the last 2 yrs. The Treo has some nice features- built in keyboard, sd slot, built in light that can flash in place of an alarm sound, crisp color display, and a fast processor. A nice thing handspring...

Pros: Cheap, lightweight, THIN, durable, keyboard, software.
Cons: screen cover, support, parts

Keyboard is great for those that hate always needing to pull out a stylus (which often gets lost anyway) to enter data. Color screen is great even if lighting is not consistent. Battery life is excellent as long as you remember to adjust alarm settings ...

Pros: Small size, keyboard
Cons: Screen display failure, marginal resolution

I purchased my Treo 90, being drawn to its small size and the keyboard function. While I had learned “Graphiti” on a previous Palm, I was never great with it. The Treo 90 size is great, and performance was as expected….. for the first two...
