It adds about 3/4 inch in length, 1/2 inch in thickness, 0 inch in width and now weighs as much as my 8 in 1 Function TV remote. It isn't light. The big issue was now there is no holster for it; so I used Gorilla Glue to place a circular mounting button on the back. I like it. Of course now I'll wait until a new Treo XXX comes out with wifi and a neck massaging function. When it reduces to $199, I'll buy it.
