Finally, after 2 years of losing serious market share to the Blackberry and iPhone, th Treo 
is making a comeback. In the fall, Palm will be selling the Treo Pro to compete in the smartphone market.
Is the Treo Pro worth of the Blackberry Curve and 3G iPhone? First of all, the design is really sleek with a thinned out version of the older Treo. Also, the keyboard looks just like the Blackberry so it is easy to type e-mails. It includes GPS and a touch screen similar to the iPhone. So, we like the fact that the new Treo is combining the best of both worlds here.
The potential pitfall is being able to product a stable Palm synchronization software to keep computer e-mails and Palm e-mails updated. The current Treos have several different sync sofware, making the process of e-mailing and syncing unstable. There has not been one standardized software like RIM and Apple have, making the third-party software inconsistent at best during operations.
So, the new Treo will need to have a stable universal software for syncing e-mails and operating from the computer for this new product to be able to compete with the big boys. Or else Palm computer technicians will need to be close by you at all times.
