well i mean its not really that much different from the regular palm os 5.2 simulator. It only shows the screen of the treo. it also shows the graffiti area, since i'm assuing theres no support for custom skins like in the palm os emulator. the only extras are that it includes the handspring tutorials, blazer, email system, phone program (which btw has a very interesting use of the 5 way system; it shows shortcuts to blazer, favorites [the new speed dial], pictures, and contacts, and if you press the center button it will go to either the call log or the dialpad, depending on if you've got the dialpad on the home screen, or wallpaper instead) and sms/mms depending on which version you download, and the pictures/camera program. it still includes citytime, so if anyone who had an older treo liked that its still here. also new is a security app, which autolocks the handheld after its turned off, or after a short time, and blocks out everything but emergency phone calls. With the mail app, I think i'm still going to stick to snappermail, although it does look like a halfway decent alternative.
also being that its the debug release, it has a few programs on it that i don't even know what they do, like "TV" and "debug prefs"
Also theres a battery meter application included that actually shows estimated voltages, currents, and charges and the like.. of course running from the simulator its a constant full, but that will be nice to have once i get the actual device.
oh and those buttons i mentioned earlier with the phone app are fully customizable if you don't like the defaults.
hopefully my rambling is coherent enough to give you a decent idea of what the simulator/ treo software is like
