| A Few Questions....  | iPhone buyers are ex-Treonauts? The NPD Group said in a recent report that initial iPhone buyers were 10 times more likely than other new phone buyers to have previously owned a Treo. Makes a lot of sense. I own an iPhone, but I swap my SIM back into my Treo on weekdays so that I can use Snappermail and a dozen other apps for business. iPhone is great for weekend web surfing, but that's about it. Other opinions? |

    | I read the same thing. CNET had a poll and said the same thing. No loyalty I tell ya. LOL Hey, some people look for better things/different things. |

| I wonder what the real stats are. Exactly how many people did that statement include? The whole thing sounds rather subjective. |

| Well I guess we could do a poll. Would you use an iPhone instead of a Treo?

| Not a big surprise really as I expect most Treo owners only use the basic features available to them, so an iPhone would make an acceptable replacement.

| I'd take a FREE, no strings attached iPhone today. But they'd have to go a bit further to get my cash (maybe 2.0) But I am not a Palm loyalist. I once was, but now I know better. |

| Well the statement makes sense considering the Treo has been out for ever. Everyone has had one at one time or another (at least the kids with a few bucks in their pockets) so why wouldn't they pick up an iPhone when it came out. Treonauts are generally (or were generally) the kids looking for the newest and fanciest gizmos; why would that change?

| I have owned the Treo 650, 700p, 700wx, and now the 755p. I jumped to an iPhone and it aggravated me with its lack of real PDA-type functions--went back to the trusty Treo and am thrilled! |
