Palm Is The Best OS EVER!
Phone owned for more than a year

The Palm OS is SO FAST! You just have to tweak it with the konami code just Google it. Very easy to do . I like the Pixi just like the Treo 755, now I have started using the Palm Pre. Every one of the Cons... can All be fixed with the Konami fix and a few patches. Heres how.. w w w dot precentral.net/getting-started-homebrew-apps-patches-and-themes-webos-quick-install

A good replacement for the Treo
Phone owned for

My Treo 700p diedI needed a phone I am a touch screen junkie and so use to using a phone one handed that I was in troubleThe Pre requires 2 hands so it was out The reasons I went with the Pixi1 The screen  is about the same size as the Treo. The Treo is just thicker2 The screen of the Pixi is slightly larger 3 The Pixi looks just like a Treo once you put the CLASSIC app on it 4 All of your Palm apps and Treo files can be moved to the Pixi once the     Classic  app is installed. You can even use Document to go  and the Palm Desktop5 The Pixi has 8 gig of ram . I have not tried pdanet yet but plan on doing it this weekI dont understand why Pixi and Pre owners dont invest in the Classic app so they can use previous palm applications. On the other hand Palm should have given this App to existing Treo users for free.I hope this helps somebody else

Pleased but disappointed
Phone owned for

I've had this phone for about a week and although I like it, it seems that Palm was more concerned with wowing people than making a very powerful phone. I had the Centro before this one and I honestly miss my centro quite a bit. Yes, it does a lot of new things that my Centro didn't but it also does NOT do a lot of things that my Centro DID do.
