**** Bad news guys ****
Just went to Hammacher web site to see if there had been any Treo updates, etc. Was surprised to see that the item had been removed, and was no longer offered. I called to follow up, as I have had one on back order since early July, and spoke to a sales rep, who updated me on the situation. Here goes:
As of yesterday, Hammacher decided to no longer carry the Treo when the manufacturer informed them of a "problem with the capacity chip", and that it created "vibrations, and a non-stable environment, or skips...". When I asked if she knew when this was to be resolved, or if they would be offering it when it was fixed, she had no idea. The info she gave me sounded like she read it off a memo given to sales, but this is just my opinion. What the fluck?
Respectfully,
