Hiya
just wondering on your expert opinion i am looking at getting either a treo 700wx or the HTC apache
the main uses will tasks calender and contact synchronisation and a bit of text editing ie. simple spreadsheets

I have recently seen that WM6 has been released for the apache but also have been told that is at end of life

so then to the Treo 700wx

I have had a play with th 650 and it seems very good love the keyboard feel

Must say im a windows fan though

so Back to the experts what is your preference between the two

WHICH ONE IS BETTER ?!

Thanks
Matt

I think they are both similar - but if you want Wi-Fi yo have to go for the Apache.

I like the directional pad on the Treo 700wx a bit better.

There is no Windows Mobile 6 for the Apache, sorry - unless you are talking about unofficial ROM, which will invalidate warranty.

Had both...Treo wins hands for ease of use. If you like to set appointments, send txt, create emails etc and you don't need the larger screen...Get the 700WX...I even think there is a threaded sms message hack around for the 700wx which is a very cool feature that is on the 750v.

Personally the keyboard on the Treo in my opinion is the best thing out on the mobilephone market. It is so fast and easy to use, you'll never go back to a stylish or phone pad again!

cheers
