I wrote a glowing report last week about TreoTricks in California who repaired my Treo 650, which had a speaker problem that seems to be common to the 650.  I said he made it better than new and repaired a few glitches that I couldn't figure out how to fix.

Well, dad-gummit, today the speaker has gone out again.  The first time when it happened I could hear the caller on my loud speaker but this time I can't hear them anywhere.  I could see who called and politely tell them my phone was out and they should call me on my land line and they could hear me but I couldn't hear them at all.

I've emailed TreoTricks and told him he needs to fix it again.  Will keep you posted in case anyone cares!!

Oooooo, don't get me started on the 650. It's a piece of junk in my opinion. I'm just waiting for my contract to renew and then am probably going to go the Blackberry route. Good luck w/ the repair!

Sorry to hear about your Treo, I consider myself lucky as I have had no trouble whatsoever. Lmk what you find out.

I went through 6, count them 6, in  a year. I would never get a Treo again.

Colleen, I've never had a Blackberry but what I have must open lockboxes and I know the Palm based Treo does.  But I believe you are right about the "junk" bit.

Jay, thanks for the sympathy.  Don't be surprised if you shout, "Hello, hello"  and realize you can't hear a word from the other end of your phone.  Mine appeared perfect, too, until it quit.

Christina, I hate hearing about 6 in one year!!  What do you now have?  And does it open lockboxes?

I hated my Treo 650 when I was with Cingular. I was always getting operating system updates. Mine would always lockup. I used to use it as my lockbox key. I finally got rid of the thing and went with a regular cell phone with Verizon. The best phone move I've ever made.

Kenny, I'm sorry about your Treo problems.  I love using just the one item to open lockboxes etc.  But it costs me over $25 per month to use it just to enter lockboxes.  One of these days I'll get made enough to do what you did,  just chunk it!

Barbara, my daughter has had 2 treos that messed up.  I have one and it's never had problems.  I'm waiting for it to do the same thing as yours.  Sorry about your troubles.

Kay, thanks for comments.  I just knew I had a good one but it went out in a flash!  I've sent it back to Treo Tricks in California who says he stands behind his work.  I'll keep the group posted on what happens.

I had the same experience with the 650.  I went through about one every 6 months.  I have the new Palm Centro and so far so good.

Randy, I don't know what a Palm Centro is.  Does it allow access to lockboxes?  That's a must for me.
