  23. Re:It seems a lot of companies do this, not just R on Firms Get Away with Selling Untested DRAM · · Score: 0

    Hum... I don't think you got that story right.

    Allow me to clear it up:
    Palmone decided to remedy a very common "problem" (or "inconvenience") often found it Palm or PPC devices: Hard Reset and you lose your data.
    The fix? NVFS. Here's the catch: the Treo 650 has the exact same amont of memory that the Treo 600 did. Where's the catch you ask? A NVFS takes up to 33% more room to store the same amount of data as in volatile memory.
    The result? A lot of people who had their Treo 600 packed (or nearly packed) got errors while synching with the 650. Not enough memory.

    It is not for lack of testing, or for faulty memory, or any other defect on the model. It is a small portion of customers who are not happy with Palmone's "solution" to possible data loss.

    To counter these complaints, Palmone is offering a free 128 Mb SD card to any Treo 650 owner who asks for it. Voilà.
