For you Treo lovers, I need to know why you love them so much.
My contract with Cingular ends in about 5 months and I need to decide what my next cellphone will be. I love my Palm PDAs. I am not sure why I need it integrated with my phone. What benefit is there in doing this besides being able to immediately call those in my contact book?

FTR: My Tungsten 5 dials numbers on my Razr. I don't know how immediate you mean, but I like it because I don't have to have any but my most-used numbers on my phone, and it's not very many steps.
yeah, I think at the very least, I need to get a bluetooth phone.

You completely stop caring when and where a show is on. "House" is on whenever you feel like watching it. Catching up on three weeks' worth of "Veronica Mars"? No big. Supper isn't finished by 8PM on Wednesday? Whatever.
Don't feel like sitting through the commercial? Start watching "Stargate" 15 minutes late, then hit fast-forward whenever a commercial shows up.
Stop running your life by the TV schedule; run the TV schedule by your life.

Betsy, you're talking about Tivos, not Treos, right?
Oh, God.
Yes, and did I mention that Treos make fantastic vibrators?
stupid, stupid, stupid, stupid, stupid.....

Now I really hope you're not talking about Tivos...
Well, seeing shirtless Gunn ought to count for something.
I've heard it spinning up to start recording. There's just no comfortable position when it's on the tv stand...

Well for me, I just didn't want to carry around my phone and PDA anymore. The Treo is a decent sized PDA, and a slightly bulky phone, but slim enough for me. Also it has most of the bells and whistles of the latest batch of phones like bluetooth, camera/video camera, mp3 player, movie player (with PDA software), games, internet, and, of course, vibrate mode. Actually with an SD slot and an unlimited capacity to run Palm OS software it can do pretty much anything.
