About a year ago I bought a used Treo 300. About 5 months ago the battery life started diminishing until it was around 5 minutes. I bought and installed a new battery. Hooray! However, now the battery life is starting to diminish again.

Is this typical of this model?It's another year before I'm eligible for a discount on a new phone from Sprint. I love the phone, and I'd go ahead and buy another one used to last me the next year, but not if the battery's going to die within six months...

Advice appreciated!

I haven't had batteries die in that few months. I use mine for work, having conference calls, etc. Seems to be fine with that respect. However, the amount of time it lasts between charges has always been difficult. I worked around this by piggy backing another battery on the outside of the case. Works GREAT!!! My only negative for the phone (other then the fragile flip) is now gone.
