I have been trying the Treo 650 phone/PDA for a while. It is a cool device that balances well the size between a normal phone and a normal PDA. The fit and finish is excellent, which also makes the phone feel smaller than it actually is.
The main advantage is the availability of everything in one small device, therefore I don’t have to carry multiple devices:

• phone and sms service from Cingular;
• Palm OS and all the little widgets and games that works on Palm
• Email/schedule/contacts from GoodLink (blackberry) sync’d with exchange server
• Web browsing, camera, bluetooth (least used three features in my case)

There’s no major issues. But the keyboard, even though very well designed, still could be a bit too small for most people (compared to typical blackberry). The Gooklink software suite makes the similar software suite on Palm redundant and somewhat confusing. But overall the cool factor prevails.
