Tam, have you used WinMo5? I think you'll be surprised. Still, the one thing that does annoy me about Windows Mobile is the slowdowns and lockups. Something that I got extremely infrequently on Palm. But in my mind it's a small price to pay for true multitasking, effortless connectivity, and the familiar PocketPC interface.

The Treo650 is 320x320 in it's PalmOS incarnation so there's no reason the Windows Mobile version won't be at least that as well. Oh and that ‘240×240′ comment is bullshit.

PalmOne don't even bother supporting this for the Treo650 so I wonder why it's available on the 700w. Doesn’t a horizontal screen orientation seem ummm a little pointless on a keyboarded device?
