battery that is recommended or sold by
Palm and is compatible with the Treo 680.

TIP

Some third-party applications do not

create a backup on your computer when you
synchronize. If you perform a hard reset, you
may lose data in these applications and you
will need to reinstall the application after the
hard reset. Please contact the application’s
developer to find out which data is backed up
during synchronization.
