Desperately trying to find a replacement for my V3...
Is the Treo 650 the one ??
Does it:
1. Get all functiones (address book, voice command, steering wheel buttons etc.)
2. Has decent battery life ?
3. Able to switch between call waiting ???
4. Have any annoying problems like I've mentioned in the V3 report (calls doesn't hang-up, picked-up by itself, etc. etc.)
Please help
Thanks..

I desperately tried to like the Treo working in my car and gave up.
The Treo is a wonderfull smartphone, I think it's the best......
But with the E60
- it only syncs the favorite speed dials, if you get it to work.
- it only syncs favorites if it's limited to a number of speed dials (with me around 12)
- it connects well with the E60, so you can dial & pick up through iDrive
- when I dialled a number that is busy, I had to "ok" the "redial yes/no" screen away on the Treo, as long as I didn't do that, I was not able to dial another number
- it has the same issue as the V3 that it sometimes keeps the connection when the call is ended.
- there is no cradle, i still have a SEIDIO Treo cradle for sale.... (I really tried to like it)
- it's a big phone ...... (especially compared to a RAZR)
It depends on you call behaviour in the car in deciding if you want to deal with this issues or not. I'm back to Nokia 6230 (incl. cradle), runs very well with iDrive.
