Burn My Treo

I support Treo's as part of my daily job, and this is here to get out any rage I might be feeling towards them with some humor. This blog contains pics of me intimidating or emotionally abusing my treo, as well as those sent by others.

So i'm all super excited and shit, about getting my fricking update.

But then, I go to the site they mention, and look, there's a verizon wireless button.



But clicking on it gets me the same Damn WE PULLED THE FREAKING UPDATE PAGE I GOT LAST TIME (YOU MUST BURN IN HELL)



WTF!, You send me an e-mail saying an update is available, with a link to the supposed magical update page, and then I get this same old weak ass shit!

I got on the phone with Palm's new MyPalm support personnel, and they told me to call verizon! WTF, Palm Inc sent me the e-mail, not verizon.

So i begged, and pleaded for a way to contact their webmaster, and they basically told me to shove it. And i'm fairly sure the people walking in the marketing photo above are thinking, I wish we could die, so that this horrible saga with a crappy device, and a retarted carrier could end.

Treo is pretending to not suck this morning

The treo has been surprisingly reliable this morning.

Perhaps it's just biding its time.

trying to freeze the evil out




Prepping the treo for transport and delivery to the emperor.

every treo should come with a bottle of crown for the admins

For close to $600, every treo should come with a bottle of crown to give to the IT staff.


And who the hell is ACCESS. If they ever start making cars, RUN! This logo pops up every time the phone reboots. Apparently pressing the e-mail button causes this.
