If you insist on using your Treo for bowling, you should at least knock a few pins over with it. (grin)
Nice Review,

Thanks for the comment! They could replace it by just sending it to the manufacturer anyways. The manufacturer will just replace the screen and sell it as refurbished. Not that it was a nice thing to do, but how else are you going to find out if your phone was going to break under the same situation? :)

As for the controling part, I guess it depends on what kind of life you live! I pretty much don't get contacted too much. My job doesn't require it (whew!). But I do fix up computers on the side, so being able to quickly see my schedule at a glance and "pencil" them in is a plus. Also, the darn thing acts like an alarm - it will remind you that you have something schedule so you won't miss it.

In fact, it's because of my Treo that I don't need to set my morning alarm clock anymore... I set it to ring 1 hr before and I have enough time to do my morning rituals and be there on time. :)

You tried to break it? Suffer with a bit of a destructive side, do we? *L* Just kidding. Fantastic review! I gave up everything including my cell phone! I became so tired of every moment of my waking hours being controlled by the people who could track me down or keep in touch with me through it. I couldn't enjoy lunch with my husband, a song on the radio, couldn't even be a little late for an appointment because I heard "yes, but you knew about it ahead of time since it was right there with you!" (from my own mother-in-law )*L*

(oops, I'm rambling)
