Thinking of buying a treo 650, do they still freeze up?

[dvigue]

i am looking at getting a blackberry 8700c or a palm treo 650. The treo seems to have more of the apps i want, and has more multimedia capabilities. But, i keep reading about how the treo freezes alot. i had a phone that did that and i do not want another. My qquestion is. has palm fixed this issue? since im buying a new 650 will the OS and firmware resolve this issue?

Thanks alot
Derek

The 650 has never been a stable device for many people. The Centro is a better solution all the way around, especially the new ones, as they now have about 120MB of on-board user available memory.

I'm on my second Treo 650. This one doesn't freeze like the first one, but it still rarely will freeze. Overall, I love the phone and I'm planning to be a Palm user for life. :-)

The only freeze problem I had with the 650 and 680 was due to the magnet on the on the cover/flap of the horizontal leather case. Once I got rid of the case, I never had a freeze up at all.
