Despite the attention being on the Palm Pre, it seems that another Palm device has snuck back in from the past to catch one final bit of the limelight.  The device is the now classic Palm Treo 600 and users, or more than likely, previous users can make their claim to get up to $27.50 from a class action lawsuit.

The lawsuit will allow those who purchased a Treo 600 before October 27, 2004 for use on Sprint to make a claim for that $27.50, of course that will not come back to you in the form of a check, instead it will be as a credit that you can use at Palm’s online store.  On the flip side, if you are still a Sprint customer then you will instead only get $20, which will come in the form of a bill credit.

If you can actually show that you were a Treo 600 user that made your purchase before October 27, 2004 and you were considering fling a claim, then you may want to actually know what the suit was for.  In this case, it solves the issue the some customers felt they were mislead into thinking there was going to be Wi-Fi and Bluetooth accessories available, which in the end never made it to market.

I guess, if nothing else, those credits can be used towards either the purchase of a Pre or a Pre accessory.
