Got the hots for a new Palm handheld, say the Treo 700w or upcoming 700p? Don’t relegate that tired, old Palm to the trash; consider trading it in via the Palm Trade-In program:
"Don’t just send your old handheld or smartphone to the trash bin. Put it to good use—saving you money on a new one with the Palm Trade-In Program. Simply purchase a new Treo™ smartphone from Palm.com, send us your old items along with your Treo smartphone purchase receipt (invoice), and we’ll send you a check for the value of your trade-in device."
Sounds like a win-win to me: you get money back from a new Treo purchase and someone makes money on selling your old Palm a second time. eBay is clearly another route for this, but it’s nice to see these kinds of trade-in programs. Too many OEMs treat their current customers like second-class citizens instead of finding ways to keep customers on the current product lifecycle. Hmm…now to find someone to take my C64 towards a new Tablet PC…
