[ale] Cell phones

[Mike Panetta]

Have you used a Treo yet?  Someone I know has one, and they are a nice
concept but the phone part of it sucks horribly.  Everytime I call them they have
bad reception and "digifunk" every time they talk.  Or a bad delay and the sound
of talking through a tunnel.  And it drops calls alot.  Just a warning...  He is stuck
with it otherwise he would change (the company he works for stuck him with it).

I'm looking at changing cell phone providers. Nextel can't provide a
phone that can access a web page work diddle-squat ( I need to check a
web calendar to make sure I don't double book my time. again).  I like
the walkie-talkie with Nextel, but I can live with out it.

I really like the  Palm Treo, except the price, but I am not tied to
that phone. 

What are people on the go using and how do you like it?
