Best PDA phone?

[advocatusdiaboli]

Need WIFI and other goodies on my phone....

Suggestions and weblinks?

l did have a P800 for a year and loved it. l now have a Toshiba pda and a V800 3G phone. This gives me the best of both worlds as the pda is great and has wifi and l can connect via a bluetooth Card to my phone when l am on the road. I can also just take out the phone if I'm going to the pub.
I guess the only way is to go and have a look.

www.esato.com is a good site even though it is a bit Sony Ericsson biased.

I've got an MDAIII with wifi, however its pants tbh, awful as a phone, always going wrong freezing up etc.

I've got a SPV-M2000 (same as the MDA III). After using it for a while I'd have a hard job recommending it to be honest. Does everything OK (but not that great as a phone) - but it has a some serious bugs in the operating system that are incredibly annoying:
- Sometimes there is no sound on incoming calls, so you have to reset the damn thing
- Bluetooth failing to switch on, again resulting in the need for a reset.
- WiFi failing to connect when the unit is sat next to the wireless router. Guess what? Yep, reset again...
- Failing to recognise SD cards in the expansion slot. Hmmm, let's see. Reset? Yep.

Probably all of these will be addressed in future with a firmware update, but I'm not holding my breath.

I'm looking to get an HP 3640 (or 3665 with the camera) - I like the idea of it being an HP rather than a "no brand" manufacturer (like the XDA / MDA).

Had a play with one, liked it, but as yet not lived with one...

Give it a few weeks and have a look at the Orange SPV M500

What about the Treo 650 or Nokia 9300? I don't have either but they ar eon my short list. Anyone have experience of either? When I tried the Treo 650 the earpiece volume though was very low - any thoughts?

I think overall the treo 600/650 is a better package ( although dont have wifi) than the nokia, but the nokia is a better phone.

volume isnt a strong point on the treo, where as the nokia 9500 you can have open on the dash and use as hands free !!!
