First of all, a big thank you goes out to all the people who purchased Tamoggemon Software applications and read TamsPalm! Without you all, this review would not be here. But enough talk for now – let’s hit it!

I ordered the grey Palm Treo 680 at Bluehand’s(a German retailer). The unit cost 369 Euros with shipping – and the web shop dropped my first order. After calling Bluehand the next day, the order was completed and the Treo 680 was delivered in 6 days. Bluehand shipped the Treo in a unsuspicious-looking parcel(at first glance, I thought I just received some books):

Opening the box showed the Treo 680 box “suspended” in the middle of the box by two air balloons – innovative packaging:

Opening the box immediately shows you an invitation to call Palm Germany for free once to get started using the Treo:

Below this, you find the usual bunch of Palmy stuff – a screen protector, the license agreement for the Palm OS and the warranty paper. This time, the manuals seem o.k.(very short compared to the Palm III’s manuals, but on par with my HP ipaq’s rx4200) too:

The Treo ships with an USB cable, a “wall-wart” charger and a little headset as added bonus “gimmick”(my version of the ipaq didn’t include the headphones…no idea why):

So far so good. Palm ships its latest Palm OS smartphone with a decent bunch of accessories. Of course, a memory card or a spare stylus still aren’t inside and the charger is still proprietary – but hey, this is Palm(=)). But – bickering aside – congratulations on this package. Well done, Palm – it contains all a novice user needs to get started(except for the memory card)!
