pic Tim Carroll has an interesting Editorial on the Treo vs the iPhone that was a good comparison of both of the devices.  In part, Tim said: 

iDay has come and gone, and the first iPhones have made their way into the hot, grubby hands of gadget geeks and Apple cultists. It’s an important phase: how well is this svelte little beauty going to bear up under the hypercritical gaze of enthusiasts without the patented Steve Jobs Reality Distortion Field surrounding it? In the words of the Boston Globe’s Hiawatha Bray:

“After the relentless buildup of the past six months, the temptation to trash Apple Inc.’s new iPhone is pretty much irresistible. If only I could.”

But Miss Bray shouldn’t fret: PIC is more than happy to give in to temptation. Six months ago when Steve Jobs claimed to have ?revolutionized? the phone, we put the so-called ?God Machine? up against Palm’s Treo and concluded that while formidable, it’s not the perfect device and could be beaten. Now that we have fresh, unbiased opinions coming in, it’s time to see whether or not the Treo still passes muster. Let’s take a walk down memory lane…
