Wait, I'm confused. The Palm battery in my 755p says 1600mAh on it.
Does that mean that the 755p has a larger stock battery than the 680,
given that you're ordering a 1600mAh battery from Seidio?  I thought the
stock batteries in the two devices were the same.

I do recall both the Verizon rep and the Sprint rep telling me that the
batteries in those two machines would last longer after a few full
charges.  Who knows, maybe it's true!!

Cheers,
Don

Hello, Jeffrey Kaplan.

This battery is +almost+ too thick to fit the Treo 680.  It's so tight,
I have to practically force the cover on and off.  Seriously, if it
were one tenth of a millimeter thicker, it wouldn't fit at all.  It's
also heavier, which is to be expected.  I didn't weigh the batteries,
so I don't know.  What's odd about that, though, is that I didn't feel
the difference when handling the batteries by themselves
(individually), but once I put the new one in my Treo, I immediately
noticed it was heavier.

It's been in only about four hours, so I have no comment on the charge
life yet.  I should start to get a feel for that over the weekend.
Also, the paper insert in the blister pack said that "performance will
increase after 5-6 full charges".
