I ordered a palmone tres 650 pda from a seller on amazon.
They confirmed my order and charged my card and the next day they send me an e-mail stating he can’t do the transaction at this time. To me, thats simply very bad business. They always say, when it looks like a good deal something is wrong!!
They were right. I will never again use Amazon.
Thanks for the great experience.

My Treo’s volume is really low (even the speakerphone can be hardly heard). I have heard that the volume could be set as an “OUTDOOR” model. HOw can this be done? Thanks.

If you are reading this at Starbucks while wearing socks with sandals, then you just don’t get it and never will.

While this phone has a lot of features, the time, and learning curve that it requires to access and use the features is enormous. Just answering and making calls requires multiple steps and button presses. To sum up the learning process of the phone/PDA, Palm (in it’s owners manual) recommends that you learn about the device in the following steps: 1.The first day, read and learn X Chapters, 2. The next day, read and learn X (more)Chapters. 3. After One Week, read and learn X (more) Chapters. 4. Then, after One Month of use, read and learn the remaining chapters of the User Manual. Simply put, the time expended just to learn and USE this device is tremendous. Then, once you learn how to use it, you learn that TO use it also requires time and multiple button presses; no matter how simple of a task you want to do. By the way, these problems/deficiencies should not be taken out on Cingular. They don’t make the device. Rather, they sell it because there are people (unlike myself) who have lots of time, and patience, to learn and use devices such as this, and who like electronic devices which are challenging. As for me, I have more important things to do. (By the way, I am not ‘electronically challenged.’ In fact, I own a business which installs and supports electronically sophisticated devices.)

I’ve decided to write this in response to the numerous number of complaints in regards to the Treo 650 on Cingular Wireless.
First, the Treo 650 is a wonderful pda/phone. It utilizes almost everything an individual might need. The only option that could be added to increase functionallity would be built in WIFI support or support for a WIFI SD slot adapter. That being my only complaint, and that I would say is hardly a complaint.
Second, most of the issues people seem to have with this pda/phone seem to stem from the service provider (Cingular Wireless) and not the equipment itself. If you are having trouble w/ your service provide, please have the COMMON SENSE to at least complain appropriatly.
Third, many of the ACTUAL equipment issues that people seem to have can be easily corrected. For example, many have complained about a low volume issue, this can be easily corrected by installing a volume management application from [...] . Also, as with any type of operating system, whether pda based or PC based, there is the issue of END-USER ERROR, meaning a vast majority of individuals experience problems due to their own lack of patience and inexperience.
To sum it up, place blame where blame is actually due: The Service Provider & End-User Ignorence!!!!!!!!!!!!
