A review of the Palm Treo 800w (Sprint) Windows Mobile smartphone has been posted over at CNET. 'When it comes to design, the Palm Treo 800w takes a little bit of the old and a little bit of the new. The overall shape falls more along the lines of previous Treos, but Palm has definitely trimmed it down and given the Treo 800w a more modern look. The smartphone measures 4.4 inches high by 2.2 inches wide by 0.7 inch deep and weighs 5 ounces. It may make for a tight fit in a pants pocket, but the Treo 800w is really quite a compact smartphone, especially considering it has a touch screen and full QWERTY keyboard. The smaller size and attractive slate blue color really adds much to the appeal of this device. Plus, the back features a soft-touch finish to give it a rubberlike texture.
One big improvement over previous Treos is that the Treo 800w now has a 2.5-inch, 320x320 pixel resolution touch screen (versus 320x240), bringing it up to speed with the Palm-based Treos. The higher resolution, along with its 65,000-color output, makes text and images sharp and bright, but you really notice the difference as everything just looks smoother and less pixilated. The Today Screen was also enhanced with some useful features to make the Windows Mobile smartphone easier to use. There's now a Dial Lookup field, so you can easily search for contacts by entering the first couple of letters of a name. And in addition to Windows Live search, you can search for points of interest.'
