Best Treo 650 Tips and Tricks and Programs
Engadget is starting a new feature with the best helpful hints for gadgets. First up is the Treo 650. All of the tips are in an unmoderated Comments section, so you have to wade through a bit of chatter, but there’s some real good ideas there, including:
- Opera Mini Web Browser
- PDANet – to turn your Treo 650 into a wireless internet access for your laptop
- Chatter E-Mail – Push e-mail technology like Blackberry
- VoiceDialIt – Add Voice dialing to your Treo
Some of my favorites are:
- Silver Screen – Extends the functionality of the Palm OS
- SnapperMail – Better e-mail client than comes with the Treo
- Insaniquarium – Very entertaining fish feeding arcade game (it’s better than it sounds)
- AcidSolitaire – The best solitaire game on the market.
- PocketTunes – MP3 player for the Treo
How do I turn up the volume on my Treo 650 and bluetooth headset? The maximum volume is too low.
Ellen,
I don't know the answer to that because I'm embarrassed to say that I still have the 600. (Although, in my defense I did get the 600 5 days before it was released because I was covering the Treo blogs).
I think your best bet is to ask the question on the Comments section of the link on Engadget. I'll bet you get a good answer there.
Good luck.
Is there a way in my Contact list to set up voicemail access for my home (not mobile) number so that the phone number and password is entered after the connection is made??
I tried just adding it to the original voicmail phone number but it wont connect.
Thanks,
Rich
Rich,
I'm pretty certain there's a way to program in pauses and then have the numbers appear. I've never had to do that, so don't know the answer off the top of my head.
I would look at the manual, or look at the Palm website. Another solution would be to ask the question on the treo thread or one of the treo websites.
Good luck with that.
Dave
