make sure the applications you are goign to use support the palm os 5 that the treo has. A few of the applications I need do not support that. Wish I knew before I bought it.

I really appreciate the offer...but I think all of my extra money just went up in x-box smoke...ie: my son's Christmas gift AND a set of 4 Goodyear Eagles....









all in about the last 24 hours....Sith =

yeah and at treocentral.com people are trying to figure out if they are going to get theirs tomorrow in the mail or not. seems no two people in shipping know the same thing. Now this is at palm. Sprint people are saying its backordered and they wont have it for another week or something.

My friend is one of the ones with the next day shipping order.

I hope palm didnt drop the ball by not making enough units to fill the anticipation of this product.

oh and 599 for existing sprint customers.....phhhht fuck that, i dont care if the phone wipes my ass and powders my balls, that price is nuts.

650 looks to be pretty cool, but P1 screwed up big time with the memory. A lot of people are having problems because the 650 cant run a few applications because it only comes with 32mb of memory, and only 23mb is available to users.
