6620 as a PDA?

The 6620 is clearly a very good phone, what I am not sure about is if it is a good PDA such that we could see using it instead of a Treo-600 or blackberry? Are any of you using it in this manor?
By good PDA I would mean, fully functional and usable calendar, notes and contacts and the ability to get practical on-the-road email. The sync with outlook should be complete and it should also have a realistic way to enter text (if it had the fold-out keyboard I would jump at it).
Any thoughts?

to use a palm keyboard check this out:

don't know if it works well or not but plan on trying it seeing as how pockettops go for $40 on ebay.

Including myself, I know almost 10 people who traded in their palm's for this phone. The email works great, you can browse the web no problem (and fast), it syncs great, full calendar, contacts, memo pad, open/edit/save word/excel/powerpoint, view PDF's, expandable memory, GREAT size (compared to other PDA phones). The only real downside is no touchscreen for grafitti. I'm great at T9 predictive text, so that's not an issue for me. I have yet to try a bluetooth keyboard, but I've been told they're available and work great.

I got a chance to play with one of these with some data in it, it didn't seem to have PDA functionality for the contacts - there was no way (I could find) to organize your contacts by company and it didn't seem to have many of the outlook fields. I looked for add-on applications but didn't find any. Am I missing something?

It has every contact field that Outlook has. I would just read the manual online. I'm not sure about the grouping by business, most of my stuff is personal.

OH YEA!! A friend of mine with Cingular has it, bought the TALK software. It is suppose to help with disabilities (blind)----but it is just plain cool.
