Hands?? No, Palm’s Down
Palm will be closing all of its retail stores by the end of this quarter according to a company press release. After losing a class-action lawsuit from way back in 2005, the company must now payout to Palm Treo 600 and 650 owners that had their Treos serviced/replaced at least twice between September 2005 and mid 2006.
I’ve been in one of their stores at the Grove up in LA. Nice quiet store, not on the main stretch of the Grove, but on a side street. No real customers there. I went in to buy protective film for my Treo 650, but they didn’t have any in stock and wouldn’t have any for a few weeks. I walked out disappointed as I haven’t been able to find them anywhere. Oh well. I have since then ditched my Treo and had to go Blackberry for my job.
