My New Sad Treo 600
Won't hold a charge. Screen goes dead after three to five seconds. (And yes, I did let it charge the full three hours this morning and waited for the green light to come on.) Handspring said they'll ship me a new one - should take five to seven business days considering the demand.

However, it does work if I have it plugged into a wall. I played with it for a only a few minutes. Right off I can say the keyboard is easier to use than it looks. They are tiny lettered keys, but I didn't have any typos punching in a short memo. However, the main center navigation button is hard to use. Maybe my finger's fat (?) but I had to use the tip of my nail to get it to respond. Maybe it just takes practice. Photo quality looks only so-so on the screen - though Marc Brown warned me that Sprint doesn't have the best picture quality.

Correction - Marc has e-mailed to explain his issues aren't with Sprint's photo quality, but rather that their Picture Mail which he says is slightly annoying.
