   | You get a bigger screen with the TX I believe, but why would you want to go back? The Treo is usable without using the phone features. |

| I like wifi and bluetooth doesn't work I like the wifi. I also want the TX because bluetooth freezes the 650 so I can't use Reverse bluetooth dun and I don't want to buy a wifi card or wifi sled. I know it soesn't make much sense plus I like the bigger screen and did I mention I like the wifi of the TX? plus I tried to examine the 650's mainboard and I somehow broke the keyboard backlight and the clip that holds the keyboard connector in place. Plus I like that the TX has wifi! |

| Why do you still have a treo 650? Why do you have a treo 650 still? Plus the reason I want a TX is because the treo 650 is sprint there firmware was buggy plus the phone was stepped on by a wet dog and also check out my Bluetooth Frezes Phone post. |

| I still have a 650 because, well I don't know. I had trouble selling it on eBay... It works 100% I actually have 2. I use my 750. I like the option of going back to Palm OS on occasion, but mostly the 650 sits. |

| Why Why was the treo 650 so buggy? I think what happened to my treo 650 is that the BCM 2035 (the bluetooth chip in the 650) failed and that is why when I try to turn on bluetooth on it freezes at the Please wait screen or it was ESD.

| My 650 is Cingular, it works great actually. Bluetooth is slow to pick up calls, but other than that it's flawless. Of course the problem with it is that it's Edge and not a 3G network. |

| Honestly I'm not sure. You could probably get a replacement Treo off eBay for fairly cheap. Under 200 for a Sprint Unit. |
