Goodbye Centro, Hello 755p

[jfa02]

I think the form factor is great but I want something that size with winmob and a larger battery but retain the slimnees of the device And the blue color would be cool also,

I really like my new Centro! I love its size, including my big fingers on a small keyboard and all . I also have a 650 (similar to the 755 in form factor but the stubby ). The extra .2 inches on the screen are nice and the bigger keyboard as well but the smaller form factor beats both of those on the Centro . Now Palm could stretch the screen and keyboard to the edges of the Centro (there is a little bit of room) and it would almost be the perfect device .

I am very happy that you like your 755, but i only wish they put windows mobile on it. But palm OS is still great because its much more easyer to use.

Winmob on the 755p? ::::::::::::::making the sign of the cross::::::::: If I wanted Winmob, Ida bought Winmob. Seriously though, some people like Palm OS and some like Winmob (and others). I can handle either one, but have a preference for Palm OS, due to the many freeware apps, less likelihood of viruses, and being tired of Windows with my regular PC.

Bah, viruses on a WM device are just as unlikely as on Palm devices.

[Treo Musketeers]

I didn't know that LL. I just assumed since they are plentiful on Windows that they would be more prolific on WM devices as well.

Replying to the original post,

The treo does feel like a pretty sturdy phone. It's like a Cadillac of all phones

My regular phone is the 755p and my wife's is the centro. I have found the reboot problem to be less frequent on the centro and the audio to be much louder. Palm needs to solve this reboot problem once and for all. Does anyone have a palm centro or treo that does not reboot at least once a day? Also the hardware is a problem on both I have been through approxamately 15 treo's and 1 centro in the last 2 years. Every one has the problem with the soldering points in the headphone jack going bad and allowing music to play through the speaker even when headphones are plugged in. Also had many problems with keyboards, speakers blowing. I love treo and I love the palm platform, but honestly.. if I could find a way to convert the palm database I would switch to a blackberry or
an i phone.. Does anyone know how to do that?

My WM based Treo 750 doesn't reboot every day, and neither did my 650. If you're having restarts every day, it's almost defintely related to third party software incompatibilities, not hardware.

Admittedly there are problems with the headset jack, but you're the first person I'm hearing of having a blown speaker on any Treo or Centro other than the 650 after using Volume Care.
