It’s the iPhone X. Whether or not it’s worth is a being widely debated. So that’s another thread. Palm Treo 650, you gotta be kidding me! I had one of those when one of my kids was born. He’s in college now and he has never heard of it.

I heard the Palm Treo 650 boosts your FICO score by 100!

Presume your kidding but if not.. its a phone with the power of a small laptop in a portable form factor that makes calls and browses the internet..

 

Oddly enough I supported various smartphones over the years but didnt own one untill recently... I kinda liked the Treo 650....

Had a friend who had the Samsung I300.... and another who had the Handspring Visor..

 

My first smartphone was actually a One Plus One... untill then... I just stuck to Sony featurephones.... Still some things that they can do that an IFruit cannot... Bluetoothing contacts and files is something Apple still doesnt want to allow folks to do... 

 

Oddly enough some of us are starting to pay the same prices as if we bought one of the original luggable/brick car phones... that required installation..

I’m a Verizon customer and just going to upgrade through them. They’ll do an installment plan and I avoid a HP. 

 

Once I have it, I’ll wipe clean my old iPhone and sell it to Verizon as credit agains the new phone.

I wished that each of my tech toys boosted my score by 100.  I would be 800 by now!

This is what I plan to do through AT&T (I currently have them), and if I want to payoff early, I can do so, but all about not getting the HP for this if I can help it.
