For email, the Treo 755p now offers VersaMail 3.5.4 with built-in Microsoft Exchange ActiveSync support for Microsoft Direct Push Technology, which delivers automatic updates to Outlook email. Businesses connected to a Microsoft Exchange Server get fast, automatic wireless updates of email, calendar and contact information with added IT security and remote manageability. Also new to the Treo 755p is the Google Maps service for mobile, built into the Treo's ROM. You'll be able to get directions, perform local searches, and view moveable/scalable maps, satellite imagery, and traffic updates while on the go.
If your laptop is Bluetooth enabled, you can connect the Treo 755p wirelessly and enjoy dial-up networking (DUN)--surf the Internet, send email, and access files from a server--using Sprint's Mobile Broadband Network, which is available in more than 11,000 cities and 1,000 airports. With the power of EV-DO, you can also stream audio or video--such as from Sprint TV--or download ringtones, pictures, and video clips to your Treo smartphone or a MiniSD expansion card (sold separately). Where coverage is available, EV-DO connectivity provides average download speeds ranging from 400 to 700 Kbps, with peak rates up to 2 Mbps.
Design
At 5.64 ounces (160 grams), the 755p sheds
nearly 12 percent of the 700p's weight (6.4
ounces), and it feels less bulkier in your
pocket without the antenna stub. Under the
hood, the Treo 680 features Palm OS 5.4.9,
64MB of non-volatile flash memory available
for user storage, and an Intel PXA270 312
MHz processor. It also features a 320 x
320-pixel color touchscreen, full QWERTY
backlit keypad, and application buttons
(which are customizable). The expansion card
slot is compatible with MiniSD cards, and
supports up to 2 GB of memory (memory cards
sold separately).
Other design features include an infrared port for line of sight data transfers, as well as a handy switch for turning off the phone's ringer. A five-way navigator controls most of the phone's menus and operating system functions, while quick application buttons on either side of the navigator get you to your favorite applications in a snap. The left side of the unit features a volume up/down toggle plus a handy user-customizable button that can be assigned to any phone or PDA function. The rear of the Treo 755p houses a loudspeaker, as well as the VGA camera unit. A touch-screen stylus can be tucked away on the right side of the phone. Meanwhile, a combined charging, data, and accessory attachment port is housed on the bottom of the unit, as is a standard 2.5 mm stereo headset jack.
