Talk:Treo 700p

Weasel words

I've flagged the criticism section (which is a merge of two sections with specific criticisms and a lack of context) as needing citations and having weasel words because it makes use of quite a few weasel words and applies other assertions (which are probably correct, but need back-up). For instance: What kinds of devices are similar? How much criticism is "considerable"? How is a camera-less version a necessity? Keep in mind I'm not refuting any of these, I just think we need more evidence (external citations, links to appropriate articles, etc) than we currently have in this article. -- Steven Fisher 22:03, 16 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I tried to add some citations using the "note"/"reference" system but it didn't work. 65.104.77.179 21:46, 19 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I completely overhauled this section with more a balanced approach, citing both the good and bad of this phone based on C-NET, PC-World and other review sources. This should hopefully address all of the above (Joe Consumer 8/27/06)

I'm surprised that the "camera-less" angle was dropped. It's a genuine necessity for some users. This handset is clearly aimed at corporate/technical users. Many site policies prohibit the carrying of cameras by visitors, and not only in the defence contracting world. Not having a camera-free phone available in the range looks like a clumsy step. This issue may be fading now as policies and practices are adapted but it was real issue (three-year old nokias going for top dollar on ebay) when this model was introduced.

VCAST on 700p?

I have a 700p and nowhere does it allow me to get VCAST on the phone. Can someone verify that the phone can indeed do VCAST?

Incomprehensible text

"With appropriate service, it can also display the latest news and headlines in an on-demand user area."

In particular, the last noun phrase. Can someone please run this through the Remove Telco Industry Jargon filter? Matt Whyndham 08:40, 17 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Availability

I added a notice stating that the phone is no longer available on Palm's site. This is born out by looking at the main page for the phone listed further down in the article. Andrewhime (talk) 03:52, 2 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]
