Review: Treo 755p

Form Basics Extras Wrap Up Comments 5

Just as on the Windows Mobile Treo, Palm includes two messaging applications - one for email and a second for SMS/MMS. The SMS application is a very simple affair, made even more simple by a seemingly advanced feature - threaded messaging. Messages to and from a contact are displayed in a single window like an IM chat, with a list of ongoing conversations and an option to start a new one on the home screen.

The email application maintains a traditional inbox view instead of the threaded one. It can be configured for one account and offers helpful default configurations for a number of services. As with all smartphones it can be set up to retrieve mail automatically at timed intervals.
