To Majid Ali: That is a limitation of SMS messaging, not of this particular phone. There is no way to increase the characters per message you can send; however if you type beyond the 160 char limit the Treo will automatically send multiple messages for you.
I've had this phone for about a year now, and though it has locked up on me a few times, that is mostly due to two programs: Mundu IM (instant messenger) and TreoAlarm (alarm clock/weather app). Otherwise it seems to be fairly stable and a decent phone. I've been holding off on replacing it with an iPhone for two reasons: One, the iPhone as of February 2008 does not support Bluetooth DUN without a hack, and also because for some strange reason, AT&T converted my individual consumer account to a "small business" account when I upgraded to the Treo and I don't think they will activate an IPhone. If they do, it may be under a business rate and I'll end up paying more for the data plan than most people.

This in my opinion is a great phone. I've made several attempt to switch to a newer phone or other brands but I realize its very user friendly. The only concern are the T5 screw come missing if dropped several times oops!!!. This is type of phone you will have and your friends will say "man why do you have that old thing?"

i got this phone since 2005 and it work well. there're some difficulties: gprs blueetoth with XP, keypad freeze so you must push the restar button and the worst thing, it restarting itself. i tried many software, then finally i use the standard software to support my work. Push email is good (you must buy the sw versamail 3.5, treo 650 is using older version without push email). does anyone hve same experience that the phone restarting itself, the stability is under questions.

I gotta say the treo 650 is a kick-ass phone. theres a few things that I don't like about it but most of those things can be fixed with a third-party application, which is what makes the 650 such a cool phone, (all the downloadable aplications). all-in-all this phone rocks harder than any other out there.

guys, u dont need ringo orr making anyntother expensive application for assigning mp3 as a ringtone. you can use freewares like mini tones available on palm freeware.com. i have been using this fone since a 13 mnths and i have learnt a lot. this fone has changed my perspective towards pdas. ther is a slimy bunch like nokia n moto n o2 which are symbian n windows n they suck..u can do a lot more than that on Palmos. ther r thousands of freeware apps for linux, palmos OSes.y pay bill gates n other crapy ones. for me 650 is the real fone for the last real nigga alive

For the below user....
For transfering music files into the palm u must have the real player installed on ur system. when u perform the sync operation both devices the computer and palm must have the real player opened. In real player on ur computer select now playing--> burn/transfer-->select ur device--> drag the music files into the realplayer window-->apply right click on the music files select start transfer...:) that's it.

My first impression about the phone - when I got in my hand - Wow - awesome phone ... that was a few days ago! Now I am bogged down with a problem of "keypad not working". The keypad of my 650 just refuses to work. Can anyone just help me with this problem - I feel very helplessly - it is as good as no phone for me. Aprpeciate a quick response from the Gurus - I need help ! You could reply on my email too - any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks.
