Man - do you remember 2004? Gwen Stefani was off doing her solo thing, Hillary Swank was busting her neck in Million Dollar Baby (OMG SPOILER ALERT!), and Janet Jackson showed part of her breast to everyone watching the Super Bowl. Twas a simpler time - a time when the Palm Treo 650 was brand new.5 years later, the Treo 650 now ranks somewhere between "relic" and "fossil" smartphone timeline - but with age comes wisdom, right? In this case, "wisdom" comes in the form of the Android-operating system, bestowed upon the 650 by a couple of clever chaps. I'd be surprised if everything is fully functioning - but hey, it boots!
