Palm OS
Verizon Treo 650 to 700WX Upgrade?
I currently have the 650 and it has been acting a bit crazy for the last couple months. I am eligible for an upgrade but am unsure of what to do. I hear the 700WX is the way to go but I wonder if there is anyone out there who has one already that can answer a couple Q's for me? Here we go...
1) Have they improved the bluetooth at all on this model? Is there still a 3 second delay for call transfer unless you use the "wakeup" feature on your earpiece?
2) I obviously am using the Palm OS right now, is the OS in this model stable? What are the major differences from Palm to Windows on this model?
3) I am a mortgage professional and I use software on my phone right now that serves as a loan tracker and calculator, is there a version for windows?
4) I also have bought much software for the palm that I use frequently, is there a way to run palm software on a Windows powered phone?
5) What are the pros and cons of this transition in your opinion?
Thanks to all in advance for your great input. I trust this forum like no other...

the biggest issue is going to be the learning curve going from Palm OS, to windoze mobile. i've never sold a WX to a previous PALM user and not have it returned. if your on Palm, stay on Palm. all of your softwares will generally transfer to the new device, and your not going to have to completley relearn your device.
i personally see no pros in switching from one OS to the other. aside from Docs to Go, i don't recommend any user to switch.

I like it. I loved my SDA with t-mobile. It made me interested in Windows Mobile. You'll be happy with it for sure, especially compared to the 650 (I had that, too.)
