Dead Treo. :'(

Dropped my Treo for the UMPTEENTH time last night and that was finally the last straw. Screen froze, hit the reset button, screen blank LED off, phone no work!!! Took it apart tried to reset batter connection, no luck. Phone support today, out of warranty, $250 CDN to replace, I think I will upgrade to the 650 now for the extra 3 bones. Ask me how pissed I am!!!

it's time for you to upgrade anyways and when you do, make sure you get at least this



but in your case, you're better off keeping your treo in one of these



see if your treo will get damaged when you drop it while it's in one of these

I dropped my 650 once and I was PISSED. I had put off getting the "treo rubber" til this happened. And of course for a phone this expensive I have insurance on it now too.

For sure man! As long as the company will pay for at least half of the 650 I am getting it for SURE!!! If NOT however I am stuck using the G/F's old motorolla V300 until I can scrounge up the $600 for the 650.

That would be cool if you wanted to do that I would be MORE than willing to swap the screens over.... If you ship it as a gift there won't be any customs fees.

umcp, you're a fucking douche bag.

ForceSHO was offering his broken Treo to Cornflake, not some llama opportunist.
