Customer Reviews of Enfora Treo 650 Wi-Fi Sled

A glorious piece of .... cr***p
This is the most egregious piece of hardware cr**p I've owned in a long time. You'll be lucky if you get it up and running half of the time you need it, and that in ONE given hotspot only, never DREAM of programming it to work on many. <

>The construction of this gizzmo couldn't be sorrier. This piece of junk utilises the cheapest plastic around, makes it look and feel like a cheap toy from the FIFTIES. Which, in many ways it's not different from. Let me explain: <
> <
>First thing to go is the plastic junk that plays the role of ON - OFF button, pretty soon it gets swallowed into the device and stays there. Don't even try to pry the thing open, it'll never reassemble properly. <
> <
>If you turn it off, be ready to wait for at least four minutes to try again, because no matter what you do, it won't turn back on before a "resting period" has passed <
> <
>From the operational standpoint the Enfora WI FI adapter for Treo 650 is a working nitghtmare. Establishing a WI FI connection is like winning a lotery: sometimes it'll work and sometimes it won't ... over the same network and without you having made any change to your settings or hardware. So don't even think of this machine as a reliable connection tool on the road because it plainly is not. <

>The Enfora Wi Fi Adapter for Treo 650 allegedly allows for four different "profiles" storage (different hot spots kept into memory). In the real world, adding a new profile after the first one sends the machine into loonyspace, and you must RESET it and start profile registration all over again. Only to see if it works as before. A 50/50 chance, that is. <

>I've tried this with Blazer, Opera and Versamail Treo 650 applications. The Adapter software says it's connected and its connection LED lights green. But none of the software will work because in fact the thing is NOT properly connected. It's so funny because even the Help page at Enfora.com tells you that if Blazer doesn't work, you must "disconnect and then connect it". Clearly some handle or glitch in the WI FI Manager (the thing's software) is terribly wrong. ROM updates are about 10 months old, either few people has bought this thing, or the Enfora people are asleep... or getting ready for Chapter 11. <

>Hey, the new Treo 700 IS native WI FI capable. Spare yourself the $150 they ask for this useless piece of plastic, and get yourself the new phone.
