Summary: Handspring, not very customer friendly
Review: After eight months of having my Treo 90, it totally went blank on me, with no apparent reason. I used it lightly and it was pretty much, still new. I contacted Handspring for assistance because my PDA was still under warranty. However, they told me that they could not help me because I was located at a military installation. After much running around and persistence, I returned it back to where I bought it and got a refund. If a product goes out before a year,it is still under warranty, and a company does not make any effort to help in the matter, it's not worth buying their product.I guess it is their loss. I was really contemplating on getting the newest Handspring, Treo 300. Now, I am shopping elsewhere. Buyers, beware!

Summary: Quite functional but has needed replacement twice in 6 month
Review: The unit is highly functional and I love it's keyboard although it is slightly small for my fingers. However, despite it's nice design I am giving it 1 star because it failed about 2 months after I got it and then the new, replacement, unit failed after 3 months (would no longer turn on without performing a full reset of the unit). Even though the unit was under warranty PalmOne (Handspring) charged me $25 each time to replace the unit and also charged me $20 for telephone service to determine that the unit was defective. Thus, I am now on my 3rd Treo 90 in the last 6 months, have paid an additional $70 in fees, and have spent countless hours trying to restore my data from back-up (not to mention two 20 minute telephone waits despite a recording that the "estimated wait time is 1 minute"). I bought this because of the great design but now I see why PalmOne (Handspring) is losing market share - poor construction and lousy customer service.

Summary: Simple, elegant, excellent.
Review: In bullets, here is why the Treo 90 is excellent: * Color screen. Yet affordable.
* Keyboard works...takes a few days to get used to it, but you won't miss Graffiti at all.
* Palm OS. If you like Pocket PCs, I don't understand you. For the rest of us, a simple, fast and stable OS is the way to go.
* Reliable. 2 years of use. Dropped many times. Plastic is faded, beat up, scratched. No problems at all.
* Small and light. You won't even feel it in your pocket. No carrying case or holster needed here.

Summary: Wonderful & useful PDA
Review: I bought one of this in May of this year and it's been a part of me I can't let go. It has helped me to build useful worksheets in Excel and transfer them to my Treo (using a non-included software). That's the biggest reason I bought one of these, the speed is also good and the weight... wonderful, you'll be able to carry it wherever you want. You can syncronize almost everything, but I think the memory card is a little bit small. If it were a 32 MB memory, I would've given to it 5 stars. I know extra memory cards can be bought, but that's not the point. You can also syncronise Word Documents, Pictures (jpg, gif, bmp, etc.), Power Point slides, even read PDF archives!
The built-in keyboard is one of its greatest features, no more words to explain it, just look at it. You can access to a function (4 different) pressing only one buttom. Good ilumination, you can work even at night without problems.
I've been expecting for a tool like this, and finally I found it. I haven't used another PDAs but I don't need to, I've found the best.
Actually, my calification for this one is 4.5 stars!

Summary: Worst repair service
Review: I broke the flip lid of the Treo 90 -- and called to get a new one. Palm-One and Handspring are not only back-ordered on this item, they will not even take new orders for flip lids.
The flip lid is the first thing to break. And without one, one cannot protect the Treo in one's front pocket (or other small spaces). Leather cases are too large.
Time to get a Sony!

Summary: Not the perfection that I anticipated....
Review: Any company that charges me $19.95 to speak to a customer support person on the phone is a company that I will not do business with again!! I'm muddling through with the online help for the TREO 90, which is cumbersome. It's a neat little machine but the lack of live support was quite a surprise. Also, the flip cover is pretty flimsy. Other than that, the features seem to work as promised.

Summary: Small, useful PDA
Review: I've owned several low-end PDAs over the last couple of years, including a Palm Pilot IIIx and Sony Clie SL10. This one is by far the smallest, easiest to use, and easiest to take along / fit in pocket. Keyboard entry is faster than graffiti once you get used to it. Also, the color display outdoes the SL-10's BW display, even though that unit has higher resolution. My only problems with the treo 90:
* it tends to turn on with inadvertant button presses when stored in my briefcase.
* 2 button presses to get to the app menu is 1 too many

Summary: Great Handheld
Review: I've owned my Treo 90 for about 6 months and can't fathom using anything else. The keyboard is surprisingly easy to use (not too small). The color graphics are great and the software is easy to use and install.

Summary: Treo 90 is a terrific tool
Review: I have had and used the Treo 90 for more than six months and it does everything I want it to do -- keeps my appointments, address book, notes, to do lists plus I use it to play Scrabble, which makes waits in doctors' offices, airport lounges and long flights pass more quickly. The Hot Sync works perfectly every time. My preference is to use a QWERTY keyboard, which the Treo 90 features. It is easy to learn & use.
