I just purchased the Treo 700w from Verizon. If I were to say the phone
worked well, I would not be telling the truth. It locks up frequently
and does not seem to have the power/memory to run windows mobile 5.0.

Now I find it hard to think that Palm and MS would have released a
product that would perform as this does... especially when they have
invested millions in advertising dollars.

I guess my question is this - is the product at fault, or did Verizon
"tweak" the phone so much that they have hindered the performance?

I would like to test this theory and do a fresh install of the 5.0 OS.
The cd that came with the unit will install Verizon's "fresh" install,
but that seems counter productive.

Does anyone have any ideas?

Any info or comments would be beneficial.

Thanks, Todd

I don't know if this helps or not but my Treo700w works great. The only
time I've had a lockup was when I was first trying to set it up and
installed a few things that I shouldn't have.

I'd suggest a soft or even hard reset. If you hard reset it you'll have to
reconfigure it all over again.
