Glossy black devices are very difficult to maintain! I have never found the need for extra protection for my devices up until the Treo Pro. Not only is it a fingerprint magnet, but also very easy to scratch. I managed to scratch the screen with my fingernails, and the battery cover had picked up many tiny scratches even though I had been careful not to set my Treo Pro on any rough surfaces. That’s when I decided to give BodyGuardz a shot.

Last week, Palm released a cabinet file update for the Sprint Treo Pro that fixes a bug with the Pro that “can lead to the smart phone not ringing and causing the user to miss an incoming call.” This update is recommended for all 1.04 Sprint Treo Pro’s.
The update is a software update (not a firmware upgrade), so if a hard reset is performed, the update needs to be reinstalled. It can be installed in three ways - transferred using ActiveSync, downloaded over-the-air (OTA), or launched from a microSD card. To install OTA, please click here.

Finding great deals on eBay has become very alluring to consumers looking to save major bucks in a struggling economy. According to a study performed by the University of Maryland, consumers have saved a cumulative of $19 billion over the years that eBay has been in business. Despite such a positive review, I am sure most of us have heard the typical eBay horror story of not getting what was paid for in the condition it was promised or not getting what was paid for at all. The bad news is that these horror stories do in fact occur; the good news is that the more informed a buyer is, the less likely he or she is to experience such a horrific purchasing experience.
As an avid user of MTDN, I have found that some users purchase their smartphones off of eBay or are open to the idea of doing so in the near future. Purchasing any range of technological devices off of eBay can become an arduous task if the buyer does not know what to look for or avoid. I have compiled a list of the top 10 Dos and Don’ts of eBay purchasing based on my years of experience in buying and selling on eBay. It is my hope that the following information will assist buyers in having positive eBay purchasing experiences and drastically reduce the likelihood of negative purchasing outcomes.
