Palm Mixes PDA and Phone to Clear Out Your Pockets

Palm has been a big name in PDAs for as long as PDAs have existed, but they started to fall out of favor when cell phones that could hold contacts and do email came around. After all, why carry two devices when you can get one to handle everything you need? Well, Palm isn’t going to let their brand fade into the night without bringing their product innovation up to par with what people are looking for these days.

The Palm 1040NA Treo 650 is everything that made Palms so popular in the first place combined with the latest smartphone technology. It’s got a full QWERTY keyboard, making writing emails, entering contacts, and inputting calendar entries a snap. It also, keeping with the trends of the time, has a built-in camera and MP3 player, making it a wannabe replacement for a couple of other pocket-fillers people have these days. It probably won’t stand as an adequate replacement for a Powershot and an iPod, but with its powerful personal organizer features coupled with its high-speed wireless and phone features, it makes having both a phone and a PDA feel so last century.
