Bye Bye Treo 650

Treo is gone bye bye.

#1 Inconsistent bluetooth implementation on the X5
No pairing on the 530i

#2 Four Automatic resets in 2 days

#3 Low earpiece volume.

#4 I have no time for cell phone drama

I thought the same thing and bought the 700. Bluetooth is a lot better in the 700 but it ended up being more of a pain than what it was worth. On the 650 most things, like speed dials, were very easy. With the Windows OS5 on the 700 it seems to take many more steps to get what you want and there were just as many, if not more, hangups and resets. I ended up going back to my 650 in spite of bad BT.

Nothing. It was less than 3 days full refund.

I guess if someone really needs the 650 then it's worth it. I was trying to replace my Handera Palm and my old Nextel phone but it wasn't to be. Nextel is a bit more expensive but talk about an energizer Bunny?? It just keeps going and going and going. I really want a Razr V3i. Hope i'm not dissapointed if and when it ever comes.

I have the V3i and so far so good. My only complaint is the lack of a snap-in adaptor. I'd completely forgotten what a cigarette lighter adaptor was for.

Oh Oh you got my attention. When and where did you get it? How much was it? How do you like it? How does it Pair? Who's your carrier? Do you have iTunes? Is it GSM? Is it gun Blue? Whew..... Is that enough questions?? Is this it? I just took the 650 back today and they said they didn't know when that phone was coming out.

You could buy it for $307.00 shipped.

I usually buy my phones from them and they are good.

That is for the GSM version.

If you want to pay more for it, I know amazon.com also sells it.
