Treo 700W or P Screen

[Lardo]

Did anyone compare the screens on 650 and 700...?
I really like to take and see pics with the 1.3 camera, but a couple of friends told me that 650 is much better yet than 700. Even the 650 camera is 0.3 Megapixels on screen looks better. Is that true?
Thanx

The resolution of the screens are different. The 700w is 240x240 and the 650 is 320x320, so pictures will look better on the 650. I would the pictures taken by the 700w would look better on a PC.

Ok, I got it, and what about the rest of the aplications?
It looks like a 600? or it is more likely a 650 ?

I'm not sure I understand your question. The 700w runs a completely different OS (Windows Mobile) from both the 600 and 650 (Palm OS 5). The majority of the applications available for the previous Treos will not run on the 700w without an emulator.

Sorry, I mean besides showing pictures, what the screen looks like, like a 650 or 600 ??

My guess would be that it's somewhere between the 650 and 600.

I have owned a 240*240 device, hw6515 and the screen was just fine. The Treo 700w is not for Palm OS users and quite frankly PalmOS users are not going to switch anyways (well maybe a few will see the light). Unless you compare the two side by side and even then its not a night and day difference, to me and I am one picky person.
