Facts And Features Of The Treo 600As technology advances it gets more and more difficult to keep up. Not too long ago a Personal Digital Assistant, or PDA, was a pretty decent sized hand held device that allowed you to store important information but did not allow any connectivity at the time they were introduced. Just about everyone assumed that PDAs would offer connectivity in some form either to the internet, to voice communications, or both. In June of 2003 Handspring introduced the Treo 600 and soon the PDA had all kinds of connectivity. Nowadays when you talk about the functionality of a PDA you use terms similar to the terms used to describe a computer. The Treo 600 has a 160x160 LCD display, a 144-MHz ARM processor, 24MB of available RAM storage, and a built in digital camera. With the Treo 600 you can download files on the internet, check your email, talk on the phone, check your address book, and take a picture. The technology involved in creating the Treo 600 is incredible and its functionality is almost endless when it comes to communications. Surfing and Emailing The Treo 600 comes with a proprietary web browser called Blazer and, because it is one of the first PDA web browsers, it is neat to play with at first but it has many functional limitations. The Blazer browser on the Treo 600 has a difficult time with pictures in a JPG format and documents in a TXT format. Since these are two of the most popular formats for these types of docs on the internet, it can be difficult to surf the web on the Treo 600. However there are add ons you can get to help Blazer surf the internet more effectively. For instance, you can get WebXCope for your Treo 600 that will help break down the internet so that Blazer can more easily use it. With some help your Blazer browser can be effective. For help in storing files the Treo 600 has an SD/MMC compatible port. In simple terms this is where you can put in an SD/MMC expansion card that will allow you to move important items off of your Treo 600 and free up room on the built in memory. If you have important documents or emails that you want to keep safe then download them to your SD/MMC card. This is one of the more convenient functions of this groundbreaking piece of communications equipment. | Mon, Jan 05, 2009 10:42 |
