Windows Mobile Standard
Mobile 5.0 Fresh Install
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.

Have you ever used a microsoft product before? Have you ever used a PDA before?
Here is the thing about PDA phones, they are a phone combined with a computer that fits in your pocket an is dropped frequently. A phone is a unreliable device at best, a PDA is an unreliable device at best. Put them together and what do you get? A machine that has more bugs then a matress at a hotel that rents rooms by the hour. Now add to the mix a microsoft OS and you are realy in for it. Microsoft is far from a sound pr...

The device probably "locks up" because you have a lot of programs running in the background. You can hold down on the "OK" button for a few seconds and it will open a the task manager. Go to the running programs tab and Kill all the running programs.
I would do this whenever you see a slow down. Also make sure you are using an SD card and not the device memory. Keep the device as empty as possible.
