I’ll be the first to admit that, with only 32 MB of memory, this Treo 650 isn’t the most technically capable model. But it does hark back to the days when phone manufacturers made smartphones with talk times over 4 hours (the Treo 650 is rated for 6). This quad band (850,900,1800,1900) GSM phone has Bluetooth capabilities, 32 MB of internal memory, an SD card slot and a 65,536 color 320×320 display.

Judging from the photos, you can expect that your Treo 650 may come carrier branded to the old Cingular (now AT&T) phone company.

This phone is fully unlocked for use on any GSM based carrier (in the USA that would be AT&T or T-Mobile). Reading through comments on the CompUSA site I noticed at least one person saying their phone was in a “banged up box” but otherwise in perfect condition.

    We owned about 20 at my company and 75% died within 18 months, many multiple times after multiple replacements. You’d swear they were made by the same company that makes all the toys for Walmart…
