I am thinking about ordering the Seidio case (yes I read about the tabs breaking) and wanted to know if it helps with the Oreo effect. I currently have the Sprint case on the Pre now but I found the Sprint case to be slick feeling. The whole reason I bought the Sprint case is that the Pre slipped out of my hand and feel. The Sprint case is solid, no Oreo effect but it feels so slick.

Thanks for your help.

For now, I have to remove the Pre from the TS, and then place it back on. I don't want to have to do this. There has to be some other way.

I just want to type in an address on Navi, or reply with a quick text to someone.

Anyone? ]]> Palm Pre Accessories voltageROCK http://forums.precentral.net/showthread.php?t=216027 http://forums.precentral.net/showthread.php?t=215684&goto=newpost Thu, 19 Nov 2009 03:36:18 GMT I'm not about to modify/drill my Palm Pre case or add a shell.

After the update 1.3.1 this weekend. My wall charger charges the Pre normally during the day, but when I put it on the charger at nite. It starts charging, shows the lighting symbol, the symbol stays on until the morning. But by morning the batter had stopped being charged since like 1 or 2 am pst.
Then in the morning, I unplug it from the Pre, plug it back in and it goes on to charge to 100%.
Has anyone had this weird timed out charging issue ? ]]> Palm Pre Accessories louboy23 http://forums.precentral.net/showthread.php?t=215533 http://forums.precentral.net/showthread.php?t=215491&goto=newpost Wed, 18 Nov 2009 16:58:13 GMT I have a black Seidio innocase currently but I am only using the front right now.

Why? Well, with the back on the phone is thicker, doesn't connect as well with the touchstone, and it is harder to get to the battery to swap it when I need to. Plus, when I can by a new back for less than $20 ($10 some places) I don't see the point in protecting the back.

I took the case off altogether and then dropped my Pre and chipped the front corner a bit. So I do see the point in covering the front.

The problem is that the front only solution leaves a sharp edge around the phone. I would like a snap on that is designed not to be used with a back. It could be rounded in areas and maybe extended a bit beyond the top half so it blends in with the body.

Does anyone else like this idea? Any suggestions?

I may try to sand down the sides of my Innocase a bit and see if that works but a clip on front designed for this use case would be the best!

I have tried to use the Palm 12V charger adapter with the Palm Touchstone wireless charger in my car, but the radio interference is so bad that I cannot use it like this.

Let me clarify that it worked great for the Palm: I was able to charge while doing Sprint Navigation, Pandora, and talking on the phone through my bluetooth earpiece. Very nice!

But listening to the radio for local news and traffic reports is almost impossible due to the interference.

not looking for anything expensive either. I've not seen many for the pre and most of my searches keep pointing me towards handsfrees for the treo. Are these the same and will they answer calls and control the music player the way the original handsfree does?

My screen used to stay active, prior to 1.3.1, and now it doesn't. So I'm trying to figure out if Palm meant to change this or if it's a bug specific to just me (and a few others). I'm tempted to Doctor it back to 1.2.1 and update again, but I don't want to do that unless I need to (obviously). ]]> Palm Pre Accessories jbg7474 http://forums.precentral.net/showthread.php?t=215035 http://forums.precentral.net/showthread.php?t=214725&goto=newpost Sun, 15 Nov 2009 18:31:41 GMT i bought a standard protector from sprint and it's ok i guess but i hear invisible shield's are the best but the price is very high. what do you guys recommend as im looking on ebay. ]]> Palm Pre Accessories fixxxer1022 http://forums.precentral.net/showthread.php?t=214725
