Taking a close look at Handspring's new
Treo 600
11/19/2003 08:05 AM

Handspring recently released a new all-in-one device, the Treo 600. This device combines a PDA, cell phone, Mp3 player, and camera in one svelte unit. While attending a conference recently, I had the good fortune to win one of these fine gadgets after attending a session (Thanks Harry! I hadn't gone to the conference planning to get a new phone or change my service. I had been happy enough with my old Nokia 6360 cell phone.

My New Treo 600


My New Treo 600 03/08/2004 11:18 PM
Well, it was a close call between the PalmOne Treo 600 and the Sony Ericsson P900, but I've gone with the Treo. The P900 has a much better Web browser, a better camera, better multitasking and in many ways a better user interface. But the Treo has a thumb-keyboard, which for me is essential, and zillions of Palm OS applications that run nicely and enhance the device.

RealPlayer Comes to the Treo 600?


RealPlayer Comes to the Treo 600? 01/08/2004 07:20 PM

There were lots of big announcements today but as far as I'm concerned, the biggest is Real's new software plus music store. Not for the music store itself, because after I download the first song for $.10 I don't envision locking my music up in AAC + Helix encrypted files, but because RealPlayer 10 brings with it a new Palm component. The line that specifically caught my eye is "support for over 50 portable music devices, including the iPOD and the Handspring Treo 600."

Naturally my fingers tripped over themselves to get to the Real site and download the software to my T600, but I couldn't find a download link for it anywhere. The key turns out to be this little phrase: "For the next 10 days, U.S. consumers who download RealPlayer 10 will be able to purchase their first track for only $0.10. Consumers can transfer tracks purchased in the RealPlayer Music Store to the Creative Zen Xtra as well as seven models of PalmOne devices, including most of the Tungsten models, the Zire 71, and the Treo 600."

I didn't realize I had to actually download the main player and create an account at the music store just to get the Palm piece that I want, but of course Real is going to make this as difficult as possible (I don't use Real anymore because it's become more and more annoying with each iteration). PDA 24/7 spelled it out in the following post:

"Email from Galley- 'As I write this, I am listening to Night Ranger's 'Don't Tell Me You Love Me' on my Zire 71. It is a 192Kbps DRM-enabled AAC file! RealPlayer 10 was released today, and it features a music store. Tracks are 99 cents, or $9.95 per album. All files are RealAudio 10 (192Kbps AAC), so the sound quality is very good. Persons who have signed up for a Music Store account can get version 1.5 of RealPlayer for PalmOS.' "

So despite my dislike for the software, I've been anxiously awaiting a new version of RealPlayer that would work with the T600 because I really, really, really want to be able to access Live365 streams. Even better, I'd like to finally be able to access Rhapsody on it, and I'm guessing this is the first step to making that a reality.

By the time I realized what I needed to do, I was home reading my aggregator for the night. Every day I carry my sync cable to work and back in order to keep my data and programs up-to-date at both home and work (yes, I need to buy a second charger/sync cable, but they all seem to be sold out). Naturally, I forgot my sync cable at work tonight, so I can't test this and install the Palm program. Argh - my kingdom for a sync cable!!

So until I have a chance to go through all of this myself, has anyone else installed the new RealPlayer 10 on a Treo 600? Can you do more than just listen to purchased Real music files in it? Can you hear live streams from other web sites? Enquiring minds want to know!

Treo Ace: Please Be Legit


Treo Ace: Please Be Legit 06/25/2004 10:32 AM

treo_ace.jpg imageSo I've been waiting to get some additional confirmation, but as nothing else is panning out, there's no need to hold back the news. TreoCentral has a boatload of information about a very-legit looking Treo 610, which they are calling the "Treo Ace." The short list is very appealing: slightly smaller form factor, 320 by 320 screen, working Bluetooth, context-sensitive "soft buttons," more phone-like red/end, green/send buttons, a 312MHz processor, and a 1.3-megapixel camera, all running on top of Palm OS 5.4 (Garnet). Which is to say, yes, we are aroused in a humorous but unoffensive to sensitive readers way. Making it sound even more legitimate is the mention that the new Treo will have only 32MB of RAM, an egregious shortcoming that most tricksters would be too hesitant to pepper their fake with, even if it does season it with some needful reality. Anyway, hot.

Sidekick Vs. Treo 600


Sidekick Vs. Treo 600 07/30/2004 09:56 AM

I'm a fan of both the Sidekick and the Treo 600, so when Levi Wallach wrote to tell me about his in-depth comparison article featuring the two keyboarded messenger devices, I immediately did what any sane person would do and read it and then forgot to post about it. Fortunately for you, that was only like last week, and the information is no less pertinent. In fact, with the Sidekick II and the Treo Ace/610 just around the corner, bargain-minded shoppers would do well to pay extra attention to the two devices that are still plenty capable and about to get plenty cheap.

Video to Go on the Treo 600??


Video to Go on the Treo 600?? 01/07/2004 04:53 PM

USER THOUGHT: Watching a TV program on a Palm device is fun.

"Watching a TV program on a Palm device is fun! I record a program up to 1 hour long on my Mac using EyeTV, I edit out the commercials with the same program. I then use Kinoma producer to convert the MPEG file to a .PDB file, and finally I transfer the file to a 256MB SD card using a card reader. The show can be viewed entirely with Kinoma player. This is great when I’m on the go, and want to see a show – or show someone else a show - while away from a TV. For me, this is the next best thing until an SD card/TV tuner is made. :-) " [Daily Palm]

Oh, suh-weet! I hadn't even thought of this! I could take shows I've recorded on my ReplayTV, download them to my PC, convert them to MPEG and then PDB, and watch them on my Treo 600! Is there anything this puppy can't do?? And the screen on it is bigger than the one on my Archos Jukebox, while negating the need to mess with multiple programs and formats just to get the video onto the device!

I feel a test case coming on this weekend....

We hope to have these issues resolved in a timely matter and should be releasing this device sometime in December.So T-Mobile subscribers lusting after the Treo 600 are either going to have wait a little while longer, buy an unlocked Treo 600 and hope it works, or switch to another carrier....

Treo 600 Review


Treo 600 Review 01/05/2004 01:08 AM

I've finally gotten around to posting about my experiences with the Treo 600 in an essay called Life in the Treo Lane. The great thing about this device is that it confirms most of what I've been writing about for the last two years. I am truly shifted now!

Of course, this has brought home to me even more how woefully lacking library services are in a shifted environment, and I'll be doing a second write-up of how they look on the Treo. In fact, I'm thinking of submitting it as a presentation at the ILA Conference this fall because too few librarians have actually seen how their services look on a smartphone, and this is one way I could show them, even taking URLs from the audience. See, I could do that at ILA because I wouldn't have to rely on the conference center for internet access! (Assuming I can get a strong enough signal in the conference room....)

I've also updated the list of What's on My Treo 600, and I'm pretty close to maxxing out the memory on it, both internal and external. Hopefully I'll get a 256MB SD card for my birthday....  ;-)

Sharper Treo Pictures

"The reason for the quality increase is the addition of a program that's discussed in this TreoCentral Forum thread. The program mentioned is Qset and the forum thread contains a link for downloading it. This program allows you to reduce the compression applied to Treo photos, trading off increased memory size for increased picture quality. I've used it with a quality setting of 90 on my Treo. The increased picture quality isn't evident from looking at the Treo's 160X160 screen, but very evident when viewing the pictures in a larger format on a PC. Read the forum thread and try the program yourself and see if you don't notice a real improvement in your Treo's picture quality." [The Connected PDA Treo 600 Moblog]

Although the specific launch date hasn't been announced yet (it should be within the next few days), the stated plan is to launch the Treo along with the re-launch of their Wireless Sync service. National Retail Price will be $450 with a two-year service contract, or $500 with a one-year. So this probably means the Treo Ace is about to launch on Sprint or T-Mobile, right?

PalmOne Raises Treo 650 GSM Price


PalmOne Raises Treo 650 GSM Price 02/05/2005 10:17 PM

TreoIncrease.jpg imagePalmOne seems bound and determined to slough off all the good will anyone ever had for them, with so many customer-last maneuvers you'd think they were run by Steve Jobs or something. Last night, PalmOne raised the price on their unlocked, unsubsidized Treo 650 GSM model from $599 to $699, citing a 'pricing error.' That's total and complete bullshit and everyone knows it—something as important as the price of a launching product gets checked and re-checked.

The increase means one of two things: so many people were buying the generic GSM version that they felt they could milk them for another $100 without worrying about losing sales (doubtful), or Cingular put the squeeze on them, worried that too many people would get the unlocked model instead of tying themselves to a carrier for a year or two. Either way, it's a total slap in the face to people who have been waiting for this product for months, although they should be used to the ill treatment by now. After the RAM problems and broken Bluetooth Dial-Up Networking, both of which Palm promised to address but never followed through on, Palm users should feel properly put in their place.

I have a Cingular Treo 650 on the way for testing. I think I'm just going to send it back, unopened.
