annonymus asked:


Hi, i was getting ready to get the Palm Centro this Saturday the 14th when it comes out, i’ve been a sprint customer for one year now, and with my old phone i had a 2 year contract. I heard that the Centro was gonig to be 200 with a 100 mail in rebate for everyone, including exsisting customers, but then i went to the PALM website, and they offere a pre order for 100 with a new plan, or 400 with an existing one. Is it going to be 400 or 200 with a rebate, thanks!

A smart-phone isn’t right for me, but PDA’s are going obsolete; any help on what to do to keep work easy?

MrRectifier asked:


I like to keep my devices separate, so the idea of a smart-phone is out of question for me, and I use a PDA (Ipaq) but since they are going obsolete, finding accessories to keep it up and running is getting harder. Can anyone help me with what I can do to work on Microsoft Office on the go without the need of a smart-phone? Thanks.

What is the best way to sync a Smart Phone with a Mac? Whats the best combo of phone and software to do this?

Robert A asked:


I am a recent convert to Mac and am looking at contract renewal time ( Verizon) and want to Sync a Smart Phone with my computer. Seems that only Palm Treo natively syncs with the Mac. Hate having my choices limited. There are several third party software choices out there that can let me Sync with a Windows Mobile device. I really like Outlook better than Entourage…So…. My choices seem to be to buy Parallels and Outlook on my computer and sync it with a windows phone OR…buy a palm and sync it with my Mac and be resigned to using Entourage. Anyone else had this quandry and thought through all of the issues and come up with a coherent answer. Probably need to get Parallels anyway but hate to start up the whole multiple software products to keep the system clean routine. Wondering if Palm/Mac is worth it just for keeping a clean system. May be the only person in America who really doesnt want an I-Phone. Use it for business only and dont care about music. Thanks!

Are Palm PDA’s being phased out in favor of the Palm phones?

Sunday, January 11th, 2009

Treblacram asked:


I bought a Palm T/X not too long ago, and now I don’t even see them in stores anymore. It seems that Palm is putting their emphasis on their phones such as the Treo, Centro and the upcoming Pre. I’m still happy with my current phone, so there is no reason for me to buy a new one. But, I’m worried that support for the Palm PDA’s will dry up and that I will be stuck with a $300 paper weight.
