    Have you done a hard reset? You should backup doing a complete HotSync prior, but this might cure the problem. If you have a Treo 680, here is how you do a hard reset on a Treo 680.

    Sync first, then hard reset. on 650, take the battery out, press the phone on off button and hold down, then put the battery back in, continue to hold until the 2nd palm screen shows, then release, you will see "Erase all data?" , press the UP button on the 5 way controller. Hopefully that will have your keyboard back up.

    I hate to hear that storminfla! Can you exchange it maybe? Usually on a failure, a hard or system reset cures a lot of ails . . Since it didn't work in your case, one can assume that its hardware related I guess . . . Keep us posted as to any resolutions!
