PalmOne Commits to Treo Fix

Posted by michael on from the oops dept.

Kodi writes "After the brouhaha over the Treo 650's memory architecture resulting in less usable space, PalmOne has committed to upgrading the ROM to fix it. In the meantime they'll send Treo 650 owners free 128MB SD cards on request."

    Wow. Now *that* is a company that wants your business. Litigious corporations apt to sue their customers to silence them in a similar situation, take note:

    This is how you're supposed to do business!

    Kudos to Palmone.

    SD is more expensive than other types of flash memory.

    I actually went to the trouble of getting the $15 price off pricewatch (no URL for you, figure it out for yourself). Surprizingly, 128MB SD, MMC and CF all start at $15, and 1GB sizes show only about 5% price difference. So, your information is outdated.

    *ducks*

    Than, again, my girlfriend got a 128MB SD card at RadioShack, two weeks ago, for $79.95. Good deal, if you ask me (for RadioShack).
