Attention Sprint Treo 600 owners: you're owed $27.50

Sure, Sprint and Palm are hoping the Pre turns the page on their relatively dark recent past, but karma's a bitch sometimes -- the other Palm news this week is that Sprint and Palm have settled a class-action lawsuit alleging the two companies misled customers into thinking there'd be WiFi and Bluetooth accessories for the Treo 600. Remember how crushed we all were when nothing ever hit the market? The pain was almost immeasurable -- unless you're a class-action settlement attorney, in which case you instinctively know anyone who bought a Sprint Treo 600 before October 27, 2004 is owed either a $20 Sprint service credit or a $27.50 credit to be used in Palm's online store. So, anyone still have their Treo 600 receipts from 2004? Yeah, we didn't think so.

receipts? I'm wondering if anyone still has the actual phone. Sprint should have a record of the receipt in their systems. or least I'd think they would.. they've seem to know how many phones I've had in the years I've been with em.

then again.. if they have to pay $$ someone prolly will secretly say records are only kept as far back as treo 650 ;)

Actually, per the documentation, you're only eligible IF you bought the phone BECAUSE of the promised but never delivered bluetooth or WiFi third party SD cards. Otherwise, this isn't your suit.
