Conclusion

I do horde spare batteries, charged up, for the stuff I depend on: digital cameras, Treos, and everything else. When I leave for more than a couple of hours, I take along extra batteries, just in case. I learned this lesson early, the hard way. Counting the AA’s and AAA’s that fit my strobes, I’m a walking battery store. But I do not run out of power!

Work around, or with, the cradle and case problems, and if you do not mind a little extra weight and the added size, the Seidio 2400mAh Extended Battery brings plentiful power to the Treo 680, and you can keep Palm’s battery charged up as a spare.
