The Handspring Treo 270 is a portable communicator you can use to surf the web and make regular phone calls straight out of the box, as well as use it to organise your life. The colour screen is bottom of the range but functional enough to add that extra dimension to web browsing on the move.
Our main issue with the Treo 270 is that, apart from the addition of a colour screen, there's little difference between this and its monochrome sibling apart from the extra £100 on the price tag. If you want to make best use of the colour screen for showing off things like digital photographs, you'll have to find your own software – there isn't any included as part of the bundle. There's definitely something to be said for browsing the internet in colour, but the connection is slow over the standard phone network so graphically intensive sites can be frustrating.

(Price from O2 with 12 month contract)
