Um, no, tregrad. The Treo 700W is the brand new Windows Mobile based Treo. It is available in the US exclusively at Verizon. I had a BlackBerry 7100i with Nextel, switched to Verizon and tried a Treo 700W. Will be switching back to a BB tomorrow. The 700W is an awesome device. My wife loves hers. My goal was to trim down to one device, but it's a little low on memory for me to be able to replace my dedicated PDA with it, so the BB is a little better fit for me.

We all hate windows just because they own it all, but they are still better than anything Rim has on their phones as far as applications. I dont know about the feel of them too much, held a couple seen a few in passing and have never heard any bad input, until now. But, if I buy one it will probably crap out.....Murpheys Law lol.
I bought a $41,000 F-350 last year and it crapped out on me and Im turning it in on the lemon law so things do happen
