Here’s a bit of disappointing news. It seems that Palm has removed the recent Treo 700p and  Treo 700w/wx updates from their site. Attempting to access them now brings up the following error message:

We have taken down the Verizon Wireless Treo 700p and 700w/wx updaters as a result of increasing customer reports of network connectivity issues following the updates. We are currently investigating the issue and will re-post as soon as they become available.

The reported error displays “Error 3000 – Data network is not available” when attempting to connect to the data network. This error does not affect your device or personal data in any other way. Thank you for your patience.

Yipes. As frustrating as this might be for anyone looking to update their handsets, the situation is worse for anyone that already ran the update and is encountering these network connectivity issues. Anyone here take the plunge? Any way of downgrading? Sucks to be Palm…
