Treo 650 or wait...Nokia 9300

by rodneyolson Dec 9, 2004 4:19PM PST

For anyone that has seen or used the 9300 I'm thinking that's the better of the two. Certainly style and innovativeness the 9300 wins (I"m a MAC and Viao user-- so looks plays apart in the decision!) bluetooth a huge + and inside screen on the Nokia sounds awesome. But I need a pda badly, I've been without a pda for almost 6 months and I"m going crazy! Should I hold off until Janauary or Feb?

My question exactly!!

I wonder the same thing! When closed, the 9300 looks easier to use as a phone, with regular buttons one can use by touch. The keyboard looks much easier to use for e-mail or notes. Since I've never been able to actually touch one, I don't know, but I hope it might be easy enough to use it for note taking at meetings instead of a laptop...
Of course, Nokia carefully left out the WiFi so they could sell the larger 9500!
I need no camera, and the 9300 sounds perfect enough I've remained with a phone I hate just so I could get any new phone promotions to switch. But, the debut of the 9300 keeps getting put off. The Treo is here NOW. Anyone have any real data to use for a decision?
