Cingular Palm Treo 750 - Day 5
Posted by Chris Leckness on 01/26/07 in Palm Treo, Pocket PC Phones
Sorry for missing a couple days here. Back at it, I have logged many, many minutes of talking on this.
One note of interest. I have recently installed and paired a Garmin Mobile 10 Bluetooth GPS up with the Palm Treo 750. I will have a video of the unboxing and easy set up of this new receiver this weekend. The processing of the GPS Application was very smooth too. I also installed a new application that will be launched soon and it runs great. It is my new 1st install application!!! More on that when I can talk about it!
Getting back into using a Pocket PC Phone
As many of you know, I love the BlackJack Smartphone and still do. Now that I have won a Palm Treo 750 of my own, it will be a hard choice to make. The Treo 750 is doing a real good job becoming my new daily driver. Since I got so used to the ease of checking email, dialing, and almost anything using one hand with the BlackJack, I rarely have the urge to “touch” the screen. Now that I am using a touch screen device, I still do have the urge to use it. That says a lot for the Treo 750. I am able to do most of the same tasks one handed using the hard buttons and dpad. I think solitaire is the only thing that I have really used the stylus for.
One annoying issue
Well there are a couple small issues, but the one I want to point out now is the waking up of the Treo. When the screen shuts off from not being used, I have a tendancy to hit the call button to wake it up. Not sure why, but I do. The annoyance is that sometimes I hit is twice and end up calling someone by mistake. I am training my mind to hit the hang up button to wake it, but that is taking time.’ How do you wake your Treo up?
The sound issue I mentioned in an earlier entry has not been a known issue according to Palm. I hope it’s just an isolated issue. I should get my own Treo 750 before the review is done, so I can test it on that one too.
