Are you really locked into Verizon?
BTW, I have a 755p. It's nice, but the older treo models were
noticably faster. The CPU isn't slower, but I think the OS keeps
the CPU underclocked most of the time and takes a little while to
bump the speed up during load.

FWIW, the n800 is available, but it's not a cell phone. It works
nicely with VoIP, but I'd recommend a headset for that. It's not
really designed to be held to one's ear.
