although i'm ver new to the forum. I had the sk2 and moved over to the treo650. I haven't regreted it at all. there is alot more that can be done on the 650 vs. the sk2. the camera is way better, 650 adds realplayer for music. the internet connection seems to be a lot faster too. they are both about the same size when laid next to each other and the sk2 buttons are a little more spaced out. all in all i'm happy with my 650 and think you would be too vs. the sk2.

hope this helps..

ps. there are way more applications that the 650 can handle too!!!!

I had a sidekick and just switched over to a Treo. Even tough the sidekick is nice, I'd recomend the Treo by all means; You can't expand the sidekick and the software posibilities are endless! Go for the Treo!

Funny this topic came up...today in class (I go to Marquette University) on of the basketball players who bragged and bragged about his sidekick to me all the time, saw my Treo for the first time yesterday...well guess who has one today. Anyways, I too (clearly) am partial to the 650 because of the amazing features, support, and community that back it.

Yeah, what Miller said. pTunes seems to be the Treo's WinAmp.
