I have had a Treo 600 for 4 months, since their early release on the Orange network. Overall I have found it to be reasonably robust and reliable. I am now on my second handset, as the first treo was continually turning of the GSM radio and eventually decided to turn itself off and not come back to life. The second treo has had no such problems so I suspect this was just unlucky.

Overall the range of applications and features is similar to most smartphones on the market, with MMS, camera, WAP and web access all available. The only feature that is obviously missing is bluetooth, which would have been useful for use with generic bluetooth car kits.

Battery life is very good, I talk frequently and often go for 4 days without recharging the battery. The case that is supplied with the treo is little use, as it restricts the use of the device without completely removing the case.

Overall this is a very good buy if you are looking for a smartphone (PDA / Phone hybrid). I would certainly recommend it. If I hadn't bought a Treo 600 then I would have probably gone for the P900, but that is a lot more expensive.
