Thats not what I meant, I probally got over 60 applications on my phone but I probally had well over 150 or way more on my treo 650, you cant just download something you see on Palmgear and assume it will work OK. Have to treat the treo as a PC (WHich is almost is) , I used to download programs and games for my PC years ago and get the crashing and blue screens , now I dont just download random software any more and my PC has been running great for years. Since I stopped downloading every piece of software that I see on Palmgear my treo is stable. One test I did once in a while was when I was getting the stalls and white screens is to Backup my Treo and hot reset it and it would work fine so I knew the issues was one (or more) of the software I had on my Treo . I Literaly had around 200 programs on my tro 650. All the free games etc. but just like the problems alot of people have with say the toysoft stuff reseting there devices, if a company that has been around and is established has some bugs in there software , the odd are that some of these other programs made by smaller developers have a few , so you have to just be carefull what you put on it. I have tested the Treo 700P without any software on it and it rans fine for days so I think alot of the stalls and crashed are softeare based. This is not to take Palm out of the blame as they need to fix the Bluetooth and the camera is horrible.

I use the Treo as my Email, Internet, TV, MPS player, Movie player, Game device and it works great . I didnt mean to leave the device empty, just treat it like your pc .
