Replacement For Clairol Born Blonde

Treo Pro: Impressions Treo Pro part II


It took me a couple of days " detox "from the Treo 750, but I certainly gained a lot with the change of equipment. In principle, to comment that I like and do not:

Me:

  • is slim has better battery
  • have the latest official version of Windows Mobile
  • has 109 MB of storage, enough to compare the former has better
  • camera has Wi-Fi GPS
  • It is very stable
  • It weighs
  • has a faster processor
  • more RAM you have very good signal

Me Not:

  • modernist design does not convince me
  • All the accessories you had for the 750, sold for incompatibility
  • I could not install any programs you had on the 750 due to incompatibility
  • the screen resolution of 320 x 320 is not optimal for such equipment
  • The keyboard is smaller than the 750
  • Soft Reset button is under the back cover
  • The slot memory card is also under the back cover
  • The GPS is not as fast as the one I have and used with the 750
  • The housing finish is brilliant and attracts dust and fingerprints
  • The stylus slot is in an uncomfortable place, I am not skilled and therefore hard for me to access it
  • No as loud as the 750
That's in general and roughly what I like and what not, but it seems that there is more that I do not like of which I liked, not get carried away with the bad certainly, the team has more good than bad.

Now, we split ...

BATTERY:

The battery is significantly more potent than the 750 , with the 750 after a continuing adequate moderate use, the battery lasted just over one and a half, the battery of the Treo Pro, with an application like the one you gave to 750 lasts 2 days or 2 ½ days . Clear that we must take into account that now I am not using the data network of Telcel, but I'm using the Wi-Fi.

STORAGE CAPACITY:

The increased storage capacity has given me a chance to install more applications on the internal memory, which undoubtedly makes the terminal faster.

GPS:

GPS, had to upgrade to the latest version of Destinator Because the former was not compatible with the Treo Pro, Destinator 6 does not recognize the GPS. With this new version, the good news is that I have the most current application, but at the same time, I miss the old, and was very accustomed to it. On the other hand, has some minor problems, like the fact that if you create a favorite of a certain street and there is a Point of Interest around, you click a certain location on the map and is supposed to appear a popup that allows you to add that particular point on the map, because I do not pop-up menu appears that I have to do " circus and theater rope" so that it can add. Continuing

with GPS, is much slower when purchasing position, but once the GPS already has localized works perfectly, I've thoroughly tested with the Destinator 7 in Google Maps and the PathAway. We must remember that the Treo Pro GPS is A-GPS (Assisted GPS ), which allows Internet to download information about the satellites, ie, that supposedly allows the satellite data more accurate and same time, the acquisition of position faster .... Actually I have not seen much difference , but again, once running, the GPS works perfectly .


WI-FI:

The Wi-Fi, I've used it enough, it should be noted that " eats" the battery very quickly while in use, that's why when I need it I turn it on, but once you no longer need it, turn it off immediately. It works pretty well , has very good range, I can even say it has better range than Wi-Fi on iPod Touch , the Treo Pro detects systems the Touch is not able, so far found. Once underway, it works perfect when surfing or downloading emails. Something that I liked a lot, is that one side has a button on and off the Wi-Fi, which saves you be switched through the Comm Manager.

SIGNAL:

The signal is excellent, obviously you can not compare to a Nokia terminal, because as we all know, Nokia phones are characterized by excellent signal where others ( Motorola, Samsung, etc. ), no. In this case, the Treo Pro, it works pretty well. In places where it did not signal ( home and office), now if I have it.

QUALITY OF CALLS:

Excellent quality, I can not complain in that sense the Pro and the 750 are pretty good, especially since Telcel " lit "their 3G.

STABILITY:

Extremely stable, it is a fact that Windows Mobile 6 and 6.1 has been a great step by Microsoft, unlike the Windows Mobile 5, this new version is what Windows Mobile must have many years ago. It is obvious that he has his mistakes and there are many, but stability is one of the great virtues of Windows Mobile 6 and 6.1. It is also a fact that if you want your Windows Mobile 6 and 6.1 work Perect, d eber have applications that help so be ( SKTools ). And there is more to do a soft reset at least once a week for the operating system is not saturated.

DESIGN:

not convince me, I'm hanging which is a rather ugly terminal, but fortunately, is the first Treo that incorporates what I was looking for several years. While on the other hand, it is still elegant because of its color and its finished.

ACCESSORIES:

Unfortunately, I had to sell along with the 750, 95% of the accessories I had, now have to go thinking that accessories purchased to eventually go by them, including a battery extra, retractable cable sync and charge, charger self and a screen saver . So far I've put one of Palm, which is bad enough, but in principle it works for not abusing the screen.

DISPLAY:

certainly grateful that the screen resolution is better than the 750 , but in fact would have preferred a standard screen that was not square, that square is a relatively new resolution, some applications do not work properly or simply INOPERABLE. Finally, most applications work, with some exceptions.

APPLICATIONS:

Applications well known ( Pocket Informant, most SPB Software House, SKTools, the Resco, Facebook, Google Maps, iSilo, PathAway, Skype, etc.. ), f unction perfectly. There are some exceptions, most games that simply can not be installed.

KEYBOARD: Functional

tout , the problem is, is that the keys are much more together than the Treo 750, which sometimes makes it difficult to write, but definitely not something that makes me consider changing the device with another. Once you get used to driving as well as the one with the 750.

HARDWARE:

Soft Reset button is under the back cover , as was customary in the 750 was at hand, but I've corrected the Soft Reset function of SKTools. The slot memory card is also under the back cover one hand is good news, as this is less likely to lose, but on the other hand, is a drawback if you are a person who get used to using multiple cards in one device. I for now I have no problems, and now and from my 750, I have been using a 16GB card.

finish when new looks great, but the problem comes in begin to use it, is imbued with fingerprints and starts to look pretty nasty, you have to be pregnant by wiping with a cloth all the time if you want it to look shiny and clean. On the other hand, the same glossy finish makes imprefecciones and bumps more noticeable .

The speaker is not as powerful as the 750 , but it's nothing serious, this can be corrected through software, but so far I have not seen the need to resort to it.

is very thin compared to the 750, which is far more comfortable when carried in a holster on your belt or shirt pocket or pants.

3G DATA NETWORK:

When I can not talk about it because as already mentioned, she dispensed with, when I have chance to try it, I will publish results and ydemás.

For now, I think it's more than enough, in a couple of days before, I'll break down some things I need to try here, for example, that I have installed software, that software does not work and now something else I remember ...

Soon, more ...
