Great package!

Pros: Includes mobile power cable for gps/phone
Cons: need to transfer to larger memory card
A very shortsighted feature set
Basically, anyon who really maximizes the use of their Treo is going to want something more than a 1 GB card. This site, for example, sells a 4GB card that I have purchased and it lets me pocket tunes, Audible and still have plenty of room for photos. There are different Siedio cradles for different purposes, and none of them do everything, but I'm getting by with the 4850 right now. useperhaps if the 6 softare is now compatible with the 680 I might buy it and load it on the 680 and get back to the functionality of my beloved 650!
The puck receivers are a drag unless you want to walk around with it. Otherwise you really need a cable that charges both the puck and the treo at the same time (Palm's solution). That's also a pain. The puck slides around on the dashboard and you have extra wires in the way.
An integrated cradle may interfere with BT Heasets, may not play music or may not have a seakerphone. You have to review them carefully on Siedio's website before buying one. Sometimes reseller sites do not accurately describe compatibility and features. Still, if you can find the features you want, all you have to do is drop the treo into the cradle and you have both a secure mount, a charger and a gps receiver without having to connect wires every time or deal with sliding pucks and extra wires.
The ability to load the software onto an existing high GB card also means you don't have to change cards or limit content you can store on your Treo.
The Palm soution is a nice way to go if you dont mind extra wires, plugging it in every time you get in the car, and you only use your phone for phone, organizer and email, but if that's all you use the Treo for, you're missing some fantastic programs and features.

Pros: The Tom Tom 6 software is the best there is
Cons: Software on a 1GB card, no charging cradle
