The Palm Treo 700w doesn’t look that much different from the Treo 650. The design is one-handed operation that very comfortable. The style of the buttons is a little different, and the shape of the casing has been changed slightly, but otherwise the design is very similar. The buttons of the famous thumb keyboard remain similarly sized and well spaced. On the left side is keys of volume slider. Below are a single unmarked button. Maybe for push-to-talk or some similar function. The only function that it does have out of the box is to launch Windows Media Player if it press and hold. On top there are SD slot, IR port, and a simple switch that changes the Treo from ring to vibrate to silence quickly and easily. (more…)

The bottom front panel only contains four buttons, two softkeys and two phone keys without two buttons for proper one-handed navigation, the Start and OK/Close buttons. The screen and keyboard are mounted on separate parts of the device. When slide the display to one side and reveal the keyboard, it’s automatically switches the system to landscape mode. The keyboard is back-lit for use in low light that seems much brighter than the Cingular version of the Wizard. (more…)

The P120’s screen is 2.8 inch LCD with a resolution of 240×320 pixels. It’s very bright, clear and easy to see even with the backlight at half strength.

The LED on the left of the screen flashes blue when the Bluetooth radio is enabled and flashes amber when the Wifi radio is turned on and with both radios on, the two colors are flashing. (more…)
