At least that's what we hear from our customers. We get some great - and sometimes pretty funny - stories about our Palm phones. There's the one about a Centro surviving a 400 foot fall from the 34th floor…and another one about the self-flush toilet (it was clean!).
And then there’s the downright practical, like this one from Jeanne-Marie:
"Recently while rushing from one event to another, my older son was putting on a tie in the car. He doesn't get dressed up often and since I was driving and my husband was meeting us late (coming from my younger son's lacrosse practice) the tie was not being tied properly. I passed him my Centro and had him Google how to tie a tie...a pictured site loaded quickly on the Centro and the tie was tied properly on the way to the event, once again proving my Centro to be invaluable in assisting with management of my family. Thanks!"
And sometimes your Palm smartphone is a more than just a figurative lifesaver -- here's a video from Major Matt White of the US Air Force Reserve who says "I feel quite certain that the Treo helped to save not only my life, but the lives of three children, their father, and two other men" when it played a crucial role in a rescue operation in the aftermath of Hurricane Ike last fall.
How about you? Visit our Facebook discussion board and tell us how your Palm phone improves your life.

Great video of the US Coast Guard rescue team! The Palm Treo did a great job capturing these Hero's performing their duty. Job well done to both the Rescue Team and the Treo!

I have a Palm Pre OS suggestion, but I don't know where to send email suggestions?
Developers are you listening?
