I've still got the 800w for now, but I can't say I'm pleased with Palm's handling of many of the issues brought to their attention regarding the device. They've done much better by the Treo Pro regarding issues.

I've got a BB Curve too, that I also use. Can't say I use the 800w for the straight up business critical stuff. As much as I really DON'T like BBs, when it comes to business critical things you need something that does not require soft resets often. (Can't say I remember the last time I reset the BB.) The 800w for me is for lesser important business and personal use. Palm's left me disappointed, can't say I'll be buying any more Palm devices.

And I always assumed that Palm would make a 3.5mm wired adapter for the 800w, but they never did.

Anyway, glad you're happy.

yes i had high hopes for palm because of the speedy updates like usb update and bluetooth voice dialing.

i later lost all hope in palm. yes the 800w is more of a fun phone (if you have a charger near) lol but i recently changed positions at work from being a tech to being a cooridnator so reliability is key for me now.

if i ever get out of this job or downgrade my plan i will probably go back to one of my palms. i still have my 800w and my 755p. but i honestly dont think i can go back due to the speedy app switching and internet on the curve.

i have excelent vision and i was having a hard time seeing the gps screen as well. well the bottom stats that is.
with the curve they seem to have realized that they have a small screen so the blow everything up so it is easier to see.
the only thing i miss is the threaded messaging and pic mail.
but i didnt use them enough for that to be a deal breaker.
