Product Description:
Say hello to the Palm Treo 680 smartphone. It's your phone along with email, messaging, and web access. Not to mention your contacts, calendar, photos, and songs. Sounds like a lot. And it is. But everything's so easy to learn that you'll actually use it, which makes it anything but a typical phone.The same goes for design. Pick it up and you'll notice a large color touch screen and an easy-type keyboard. Since the Treo 680 is just the right size, you have the freedom to take it anywhere and still be connected to friends, work, and family. Of course, there's also something called an "off" button, for when you don't want to be connected at all.

 Hardware sucks / on my 4th treo, 2008-11-13
I have had treo 600, 650 and now 680. This has the best OS on the market and touch screen is awesome. Through all the treos over 5+ years, I can say besides the high usability, the hardware SUCKS !! All treos have mediocre reception, highly prone to dropped calls, self reboots; weird behaviors like rebooting when switching calls between active and call waiting and if the inactive caller hangs up, then the phone will reboot; yada yada.
My latest gripe with my new tro 680 started when a known common problem hit me, i.e. the phone jack circuit was loose, so no matter if I am using the phone jack or not, people can't hear me and I can't hear them.. So i sent the phone back for repair (under warranty).. after a long 10 day wait, I was given another refurbished unit which refused to charge when plugged in to the 680 charger. The charger glow light came on, but it looked like its charging, but wasn't... so here we go, sent this replacement unit back .. Palm wanted to charge me $25 for an advance exchange even though they sent me a bad unit... So waited another 10 days with no response.. When I called them, kept getting their call center in India who don't know the status, but they just want me to wait another day.. Had the issue escalated and finally had to yell at them to let me talk to their US counter parts.. Sadly, things were not any better their either .. Again I got the standard answer that they are "escalating" but do not have a current status..
Today I see in their online status that the status is marked shipped; though fedex doesn't recognize the tracking..
So overall I have been without my phone for almost 4 weeks now.. What can I say, I have been a faithful treo customer for years and I have put up with all kind of hardware problems before with every single unit I had.. and this is the thanks I get.. Piss poor service ! .. Looking at the new Nokia E71 now..
