Centro...reliable little fella, so far

Poor Luca from pdathoughts has been reporting on his Centro, which he bought for his wife, and the not inconsiderable problems he has met so far. The worst being its apparant inability to receive incoming calls which for a phone, is more than just slightly inconvenient. Luca tells me that it just freezes and has to be reset.

Luckily, my Centro has been rock solid so far. I say "so far" as my recent-ish palm experience has tought me to take nothing for granted these days. In days of yore, I always found palm hardware to be reliable and never had a single issue of anything going wrong necessitating (thankfully) a call to palm support. However, the first treo 680 I bought couldn't hold a call and had to be replaced and then the treo 750 needed to be sent back as the touchscreen stopped working after a few months. Since then I have been living on tenterhooks, always anticipating that something may go wrong. This has not been the case though with the Centro. Last night however I had my first random reset, sitting watching the telly with the Centro resting on the sofa I glanced across and noticed it was in the throes of a reset.  I thought, perhaps it has been doing this for a while so I checked the excellent Reset Doctor "Crash Logging" ...errr....log and was relieved to see that this has not been the case. This was the first time it had done it and coincided(?) with having added on an application a few hours previously.

If it happens again I shall assume that the application is causing the outcome and will uninstall it. I can't be bothered these days with apps that cause resets no matter how useful they may be productivity-wise. If they can't co-exist with my other stable apps then it is ta ta, no questions asked. I'm now not going to spend hours googling for a solution, wading through pages and pages of dull Forum posts trying, usually in vain, to find a solution for an application that I will probably hardly use but which was sadly just installed as it has nice graphics.

I did use the 680 for a day but found it a bit bulky feeling in comparison...I also think the Centro seems quite a bit nippier around the menus and when opening apps...anybody else think that too?
