A good effort by Palm, but it’s a long way behind the best both ergonomically and functionally

The Treo Pro finally brings Palm's flagship smartphone into the modern age. It's available exclusively from Telstra on Next G, and unlike its cousin the Centro it comes with WiFi.

No high-speed internet or bells and whistles, but an easy-to-use and pocketable email phone nonetheless

It's not for meetings, it's for meeting up. If you don't like the bulk of a Treo, here's your smartphone.

Poor value and lacks a few high-end features.

The 650 really picks up where the 600 left off, and while it doesn't look too different to the eye, many of the changes are under the hood or subtle manipulations of the 600's design. It runs the new Palm OS 5.4 and has a much faster 312MHz Intel PXA270 processor, but the most immediate difference is the screen: it's now double the resolution at 320 x 320.

The past two years have been littered with attempts at combining a phone with a PDA. The first was O2 with its XDA (January 2003, page 41) - an excellent first try, and one that will be revised this month.

The Zire 71 isn't a business tool. It's not even a straight forward personal organiser. Palm is targeting the ears of Sony's CLIÉ range, the new PDA boasts not only a headphone jack for MP3 player use, but also a 640 x 480 camera. The camera is ingeniously hidden behind the metal backplate. To activate, you simply slide down the backplate to reveal the lens, the screen becoming a viewfinder. You can save photos to the memory – 12.7MB before you start loading programs – or to an SD/MMC card that slips into the top-mounted slot.

It's been a long time between Palm releases, but the Tungsten T makes the wait worthwhile.

Palm's m100 series was designed to replace the III series as a low-end mono PDA

The m505 is also the only device in the Labs to feature vibrating alarm alerts.

Functionally the daVinci is the bare minimum as far as PDAs go so I was intrigued with the idea of a PalmOS device for $329.

We had one of the special releases of this version of the Palm, which comes with a translucent plastic shell

Palm's primary considerations for the IIIc,s design brief was battery life, size and weight
