i have to say that i was very releaved to come across this discussion forum. my handspring treo lid came off last night, and i was furious. i plan on visiting a sprint store today with a printout of this forum and other discussions that i have come across, in hopes of a replacement phone.
i do have to say, however that as an employee of best buy, i have seen numerous handspring treo 300's come in with problems. these problems have reanged from broken lids, OS failure, battery draining in roaming areas, weak service ranges, and so on.
it seems that the product's design was hurried and flawed from the beginning. i puchased the treo 300 right after its release on the market and a few weeks afterward ... i recieved a box with a new car charger and a note warning: "DISCONTINUE THE USE OF YOUR FORMER CAR CHARGER IMMEDIATELY, IT HAS BEEN FOUND TO BE DEFECTIVE. PLEASE USE THE REPLACEMENT WE HAVE PROVIDED." the defect was in the way that the charger was detached from the treo 300, the hinges would catch and break off. i experienced this problem many times and spent countless frustrating minutes on it.
since my handspring treo 300 experience has left a bitter taste, i have been searching for a different sprint model to replace it. does anyone have any suggestions?
