How good a PDA is it?

How good a PDA is the 220? I have been looking at both the 220 and Treo 650 and am undecided. I need scheduling, Contact list, e-mail and a ggod phone with speakerphone. Does the MPX 220 automatically synce e-mail and schedules like Blackberry and Treo do? I am not familair with the windows smartphone software. how is the Browser?

My $0.0005

I am not so sure if we can compare windows and palm OS. Each has its own strenght and weaknesses really.

Both are smartphones. While the mpx220 though a Windows mobile OS, is a slim down version OS versus it's brother the Windows PPC (pocket PC) mobile OS.

If ever, you can compare perhaps one of the many PPC with a Treo650 but not with the mpx220.

The mpx220 is a good small phone that I like.
1) It has scheduling, contact list, email and is not a bad phone at all with speakerphone.
2) It's camera is aok..
3) It syncs quite well with Outlook.
4) The IE browser is good although I now use a different and much better browser than IE.

I have been a satisfied and faithful user of a Kyocera 7135. I love it but realize that it will not last forever and at three years I am pushing it. Is this Moto a decent replacement? Should I be looking elsewhere? Cingular does not offer many options and Cell One (my current service) offers only the Treo. I don't feel that the Treo is a good replacement for my 7135, but that's probably just me.

Any input appreciated.

The MPX220 has had many bugs in the past. Most if not all have been fixed. I'm not really aware of many Treo problems but IMO it's all about style and comfort. If you're a clamshell freak then go with the mpx(with updated firmware of course). But if you don't and want a virtually trouble-free phone then go with the treo. It also depends on your OS preference.
