I did it using a spare SD card. I have a bunch of them because both my Canon point & shoot digital and Treo using SD card. I had an old 1GB lying around and used it for installing the updated firmware which took only 10 minutes last night. So far, so good.

I did back up my data on Backup Buddy VFS on my Treo's 2GB SD card. Hard reset the Treo 700p (which basically wiped out everything). Installed the new firmware _1.10 which basically only took 10 minutes because it was just updating the network connection routines and then took out the 1GB SD card and put back my Treo-only 2GB SD card and restored my data using Backup Buddy VFS that was stored on the 2GB SD Card!

I guess the hard reset got rid of bunch excess data because now the Treo 700p is running snappier as well. No problem connecting to the Internet network!

I guess since they fixed it, then the VZW Treo 755p should be coming out soon since it uses similar firmware....
