Well, today my Treo got worse. I notice I had a voice mail on the phone and I tried to retrieve it. The phone refused to keep a signal for any longer than 10 seconds. It would dial, connect, and by second #10, I’d get “Network Searching” and it would drop the call. I got home and figured out how to get into my cell’s VM from my home phone. Luckily, the message was from the Sprint Store telling me my new phone was in!
Got the new phone home, hooked it up to the computer, clicked the sync button, and a few minutes later my new phone was just like my own phone. No loss of data, no need to even reinstall any software or reset customizations. This unit rocks!
