Massive improvement over the 700 OS. Reception and speed are vastly increased.
What can i say about this phone? Having been an owner of the Treo 600, then moving onto the standard 650, then skipping the 700p due to the fact that it did not have the high speed capability that i was seeking and the features were not much different then the 650. Now that the 755p has come out, i got a chance to demo it at a Sprint Store. Let me tell you, i just fell in love with it after holding it on my palm. I just love how how it fits in my hands, unlike the previous Treos, as it has a contoured texture grippiness to it which i can hold onto like forever and not feel uncomfortable. Having EV-DO high speed (with power vision) along with a much higher capacity battery. One feature i like alot is the after-call task ability of asking if you would like to add that number to your contacts if it is not already there...this feature comes in handy when you answer alot of new voice calls. I also took advantage of the Sprint TV service which shows clips and live TV formatted nicely onto the Treo's sharp screen....very nice! The PDA functions are the same with some nice twist to it. I just hope that this new phone will be as reliable as my old 650 as it uses the new Garnet Palm OS 5.4.9. Compared to the 700 OS this is a MASSIVE improvement!!!! Great contour improvement too, fits in the palm of my hand perfectly!

I got the midnight blue one but they carry a deep maroon color one as well. Having had it for maybe 2 months now, i can safely say that i am more then satisfied. So next time your at one of their local stores, demo the TReo 755p smartphone. You might fall in love with it like i have.
It used to be really pricey, but a smart shopper can get it for under $70 now, believe it or not!
