The firmware is not suitable for Treo650-1.13-APR type of model. Wonder when will palm release an update that is suitable for the Chinese market.

As of the date of comment from Adrian Leong, there doesn't seem to be any suitable update for the Treo 650 1.13 APR. I wonder if the thousands of 650 APR users are feeling a little annoyed that Palm has abandoned them.
