Palm Treo 700w / 700wx

I can't determine the proximate cause, but I fairly frequently get a message that gwes.exe has crashed and asking whether I want to send a report to Microsoft. Anybody know anything about this?

which bluetooth headset does everyone recomend?

Has anyone tried puting ACT on the Treo?

Which one would you choose between the three based on three three things (listed based on importance):

1. call clarity
2. windows mobile/palm os
3. media friendly

thanks

Sorry all of you Verizon fans out there, but the short lived Windows Mobile dominance created by the Treo 700w is about to come to an end. Cingular is about ready to drop a wimdows mobile bomb on Verizon and the Treo 700w. Get ready for the Cingular/HTC 8125... Stay Tuned...

trying to set up a groupwise account on a treo700 and having some issues is there any 3rd party software that will make this very easy

😢 I think everyone who has this phone thru Verizon should read this..it could be happening to you. Here's what happened...
When I purchased this phone I was looking for something to keep me organized, good calendar of appointments, good contacts list, to do list, etc. I don't really need the Internet service as I have a computer close to me at all times. When I purchased the phone the rep told me "You have to purchase the unlimited data plan ($44.95 per mo. + your reg. calling plan) otherwise your phone will not work". He specifically said... can't have the phone w/o the Data unlimited data plan". I said OK, and immediately after I had the phone in my hands I called customer service and they changed my plan to the "pay as you go". ...

Does anyone know if you can do the vnc dialup through bluetooth and connect a laptop just using minutes?
Also, can u use it to get online from the treo with only using minutes? I have a Motorola e815 amd I currently use it to connect vnc to my laptop. I am thinking about upgrading, but wanted to know about these possibilities.
Thanks

Since Verizon has exclusive rights to the 700W currently I would think that once that is no longer the case and Sprint etc can start selling it the price should drop, would it not?

Anyone have any insight here? If the price will drop say $100, if so how long etc?

Thanks!

I was told that Treo 700 would have blackberry connect software is this still true? And has anyone used it?

Is there a way to import iTunes music into Windows Media Player and then sync that music with the 700w? Do I need additional software (in addition to Windows Media) or plug-ins? Any insight would be appreciated.

I was wondering if this fone was comming out for sprint anytime soon or if it is capable with sprint...thanks

Call me crazy, but with any Treo product I'd wait a couple of months before laying down the scratch for the new handset. Treos are natorious for having reliability issues-- 4 out of 5 times, they come back to the store within 30 days with complaints of bugs or device failures.

The big downside to the combination PDA-cell market is that there isn't really a good way to go right now if you're looking for a solid, reliable and functional device. Until Blackberry finishes its legal issues and the i-paqs come down in price, the Treo seems to be the only real option left. Hopefully Palm's newest model can fill the void.

The bottom line? If you're looking for a combo device, wait a couple of months if it's at all possible. By the time th...

Hello,

I just got my Treo 700w yesterday and thought, great, it runs Outlook and my PC runs Outlook, everything should be compatible and work so smooth. Boy was I wrong.

My Outlook on my home PC is set up with an Exchange server account for my work which I only connect to when my VPN connection is up and I only store my email there. All of my contacts and notes are in the local folder on my C: drive. So the ActiveSync software is supposed to give you the option of whether or not to sync with the Exchange server or not so I installed the software and connected the phone and it just would not go. Even though when prompted, I did not check the box to sync with Exchange since my VPN connection was not up and I only wanted to sync my co...

When my Treo receives a call and the ringer starts, I have trouble hearing it. While it's ringing, I hit the volume UP and it sounds fine, then I answer the phone. But after I hangup and then I receive another call, the volume (PDA .. not phone) is reset back to where it was.

Doesn't do much good if you have to turn it up to hear it ringing each time (when you don't know it's rining). The ringer WORKS ok, just hard to hear, partially because what I see to be a design flaw in that the speaker is on the back of the phone, and when it's laying on the desk, it's covered up.

Suggestions??

Since the phone has been released, ok, i do work for palm, i work in the level 2 tech support department. Ive personally had a fully functioning phone for about 2 weeks now, some people up to 4 weeks. We are finding issues just like the rest of you, don't expect us to have all the answers if you call in.

The main problem we have is activesync 4.1, if you plug the phone into your PC without installing the CD first, you will be in trouble.

This phone is not designed to be a multimedia handheld. This is a business phone made for the corporate enviroment to take over the Blackberry market. Do not rant or complain if it locks up on you doing multimedia intensive tasks, the phone was not designed for it. The screen size was not made 32...

hey guys and gals

thanks in advance.

Ok ... Picked up my Treo Tuesday and finally decided to play with the email today. And found someone interesting things.

For starters ... I do have an Exchange account at work, but it requires accessing via HTTP settings in Outlook 2003, so I'm assuming I can't do that on the Treo.

I loaded WirelessSync from Verizon, and set it up to access one of my pop accounts, and it seems to work fine.

I then went into Messaging to set up an additional POP account, and it works fine as well.

1st question: Is the 2nd account which was set up via messaging using WirelessSync?? Or just the normal Windows stuff (bottom line .. do I really need WirelessSync at all)????

2nd question: I went into MSN options to access Messenger the other da...

I had the treo 650 and i was curious if the 700w is gonna be able to have mp3 ringtones or not.
if they can have mp3 are they hard to get on the 700.
If someone can help me out would appreciate it
Thanks

Hi I just have a few of questions about these 2 pocket pcs. First what is the difference between windows 2003 and 2005? Second are the screens the same or is one a better quality? It also seems that the i730 has more program memory is that true? I'm liking the treo better because everything seems a little more easy to do and possibly with one hand and has a camera. One more question! Since I noticed the treo only has about 14 megabytes of memory for programs is it possible to run programs from a memory card? Any help or advice would be greatly appreciated
