I have had a 650 for 2 years, and the original battery had lost some of its capacity. The new battery fit perfectly in the Treo, and on the first use I was able to last over a week with several 1 hour teleconferences, data usage, standby without recharging. This was more than 3 times what my old battery provided. Since you can never use 100 of a battery without chance of being stranded, the extra 40 is actually much more in day-to-day practice. I should have bought one sooner.

Pros:
Long life, fits with OEM battery door
Cons:
none
This is an absolutely wonderful product! I bought a used 700p and it came with a weak battery. I have had this battery in for about 5 days and other than the initial charge, I have only charged it for about 1 and a half hours, yet I still am above 50! My old batery would drop to 20-30 within one day of light usage. This battery has taken some heavy usage already and has stood up to all I have put it through, including long phone calls, sustained screen usage through Bible reading and note taking, music playing, and gaming including an emulation program. I have been very impressed with this product!

Not worth the money

I bought this battery in December 2007 and after less than three months it will not accept a charge. The original Palm batteries I bought with the phone are still working. I will not purchase this brand in the future.

No Improvement

I bought this directly from Seidio soon after it came out. I have the Palm external charger and leave one battery in the charger while I use the other in the phone. I am unable to discern a difference in how long a charge lasts between this battery and the original Palm battery. I would recommend buying the standard Palm battery and the Palm external charger. The charger will work with both the home charger and the auto charger.
