Sprint Settles Lawsuit; Treocast Gets Paid

sprint_settlement_small I was notified today that Sprint has finally settled the Treo 600 class action suit that they have been battling for so long.

Granted, I had no idea that this lawsuit was happening. But I did own a Treo 600 back in 2004. As a matter of fact, it was the second in a long line of Treo phones that I've owned. (You never forget your first.)

Apparently some Treo owners took the promise of WiFi and Bluetooth literally and became upset when Palm didn't deliver. Rather than play around with every add-on gadget out there to solve the problem as I did (including this brick-expander) some decided to band together and take on Palm on behalf of Treo owners everywhere.

The result: I get a coupon for $27.50 to spend on the Palm web site any way I want.  Can't beat that! I wonder what other lawsuits I'm tied up in that will be cashing in soon. Is there an app for that?
