Any unlocked GSM treo will work on T-Mobile. There are palm 600's that are locked specifically to T-Mobile but they are very outdated compared to the newer Treos and it will be next to impossible to find one anyway - unless you shop Ebay. The 650, 680, 750 and the new Centro can be used on T-Mobile if unlocked. Any Treo that is dedicated to Sprint or Verizon will not work for they do not use SIM cards. Hope this helps!

Good luck. I have T-Mobile too and I have had a 600 (which I loved) and currently I have a 650 and a 680. The 680 has sucky battery life but it is much lighter than the 650. But the 650 is my baby!! I absolutely love it to death. Battery life on the 650 is awesome. So make sure whichever one you pick, you ask about battery power. See ya!

Default T Mobile And Treo

That is interesting, I was scoping out a refurb 650 last night for 80.00, not sure if that is a good price or not. sometimes the old models never die or have the problems the new ones do. I thought it would be a way to see if I even like the treo. without spending a pile of money. thanks for all the input here. great info on this board.
