Treo 680 vs. 8525 vs. ??

Hello all,

Looking to switch to Cingular from VZW... the rollover minutes are the deal closer.

The 680 is much cheaper than the 8525, so I am wondering what I am losing....

I know 680 has no wi-fi, which is a big deal, since I do not plan to get a data plan. Can this be added?

What about CPU speed? I plan to use this for a GPS solution as well. ( w/ a bluetooh GPS receiver)

Thanks,
David

680 doesn't support Cingular's HSDPA Network. The internet speed will be much much slower.

I'm not planing to get the Data plan.... but I would like wi-fi so I can get online at home, though...

Anything else?

Thanks,
David

The main reason to buy the 8525 is because of HSDPA. Otherwise, look at the 8125
