Mossberg Solution: Motorola Q vs. Palm Treo 700p - The Attachment Test

The Mossberg Solution -- Personal Technology from The Wall Street Journal: Smartphones Get Smarter

Walt Mossberg reviews the new Motorola Q by pitting it against the latest Treo, the 700p running Palm OS. He finds that while the Q has an edge on price and pocketability (it's thinner and cheaper than the Treo), he likes the simplicity of the Palm OS and points to the Treo's superior attachment support as reasons why he still recommends Treo as his smartphone of choice.

I plan to blog about some of my own thoughts on Mobile Attachments soon. For now, you can check out some of Mossberg's conclusions on mobile attachment support on various smartphone platforms in this February 2006 article from SmartMoney.com
