Treo 650 Killer??

I was looking to get the Treo 650.. but this may just blow the Treo away. This is beautiful, bluetooth, Wifi, more memory and a 1.3mp cam. Deal breakers for me right now is that it isn't touchscreen, no SD card, and Ir. A sure fire deal breaker is no speakerphone. Samsung is good for not placing speakerphone on their phones. I can't see paying $600+ and the phone doesn't have speakerphone. Even the phone carriers are giving away free include speakerphone. I am big on that. Oh well, guess I am still looking for the everything phone.. so far the Benq p50 is reigning, but it hasnt got this far yet.

Both the Treo 650 and the i730 include a touchscreen and SD card slot.

Every Windows Mobile Pocket PC phone to date has included a speakerphone - I think it might be a required element of the platform - so I'm guessing the i730 has that as well. Same for infrared.

I'm sure it will have a touchscreen and SD slot and I'd be amazed if there's no speakerphone. However I don't see this competing with the Treo 650 but rather the next Treo. How long ago was the i550 announced and it's still not out yet? How many delays were there with the i500? I give it at least a year before the i730 is released and by then there will be a new Treo on the verge of being released. For all we know that could blow this thing away. Just my $.02.

You really can't compare a Treo to this!

Pocket PC's are so much more capable than Treo's. It will have speakerphone and anything else you can think of!

The Treo from three years in the future will probably not have the capabilities this has. Palm is an organizer not a computer!!!!!!

Explain to me why the Siemens SX66 blows the Samsung i730? The Samsung i730 has all the features you mentioned that are on the Siemens. The Samsung has WiFi, Windows Mobile 2003 for Pocket PC 2nd Edition, Bluetooth, a sliding QWERTY keyboard, b...
