I was wondeirng if anyone has any opinions on the Treo 650. A friend offered me a new Treo 650 for pennies and am not sure if I should take it. Until recently I was using an XDA1 and loved it, but unfortunately it broke. I was wondering if palm has any decent software? I have a large collection of pocket PC software and I don't know if I want to start over from scratch. Thanks for your help.

If you're getting it for pennies, why linger?
If you don't want it, I'll have it!
There's lots and lots of Palm software, you'll have no issues there. But hardware isn't as powerful so expect different quality, but certainly no less ingenuity!

Ha Ha thanks. Does anyone know of a similar site to xda-developers that deals with Pam OS?
-Ross
treocentral google it
There are loads of forums for this, if you want some advice on palm and some links to software give me a message.
The treo 650 is a superb handset I love its pim features. After first updtae awesome. If you dont wnat sell to me, so I can use mine for a test bed.
Well I sent apple_power a PM and he never responded so I guess I'll open this up to the forum, before I put it on ebay (I despise ebay). I am going to sell my treo 650, brand new, never used from the box. I was looking for 300 pounds or a reasonable offer. If anyone is interested drop me a line in the next few days ([email protected]). Thanks. Happy Holidays.

Hey ppl check it out the xda argon
http://businessshop.o2.co.uk/phone_detail.aspx?id=94&groupid=4
NOOOOO xda flame what is the matter with o2? anyone no how i can get a hold of the flame? cos it looks like o2 not gonna release it in the uk or europe!
thanks
S1MB4D
that argon looks like little more then an alpine with wm5 and a better cam
odd choice for this day and age
It's a renamed Trion, which is a rebadged Hermes
so i guess o2 gonna be jerks and not release flame here?
Looks a lot like this to me
The picture of the XDA Argon looks a lot like this HTC P6300 (Panda) to me, what does anyone else think? http://pdadb.net/index.php?m=specs&id=735
yeh, i think on website called coolsmartphones they had speculated it would be the panda.
NOT a rebadged Trion, which is being (has been) released separately
is there not something about htc not letting companys like o2 rebadged devices anymore ?
was that not why o2 and tmobile starting getting other suppliers for devices they wanted to be named o2 and tmobile
and why imate was left out in the cold by htc ?
advice plz!!!
hey guys a bit of advice
you lot think i should bother to upgrade with o2 with the orbit or should i go sell the upgrade and then buy the flame?

yep..now the argon users will complain for WM6
But, IMHO, I would really love get this device. You atleast need 3.5" screen to do something useful. It just does not make any sense working on a 2.8" device. Does it?
That is a joke, it looks like they are relying on sentimental reasons to invoke XDA2 users to buy this. With the O2 Flame being launched next week, why would anyone buy this?
There are plenty of online shops who are already taking orders for the Flame - use Australian sites if you are seeking extra security. Retail price online is about 500 quid.
Hi, a lot of conflicting stuff on the Argon so let me set the record straight. It's an HTC Panda badged for O2. It runs on WM5 althought O2 will be rolling out with WM6 in the near future. CPU is 400Mhz Samsung 2442. O2 have a large client base in the UK using the XdaIIi form factor and there has been high demand for continuity since HTC pulled the plug on the XdaIIi. I manage over 800 XdaIIi's and the Argon is key to our future growth until something better with a 3.5" screen comes along.
main thing that o2 are going back to the xda2 style is that also of businesses use the xda2 for tracking things eg taxi`s, dhl etc all have carkits or cradles for them.this is a stroke of genius from o2,wait till you guys see wot o2 have in the next xda pipeline i cant wait...

Call Raisa at OnTheGoSolutions.com and tell her Richard S. in Ohio referred you. I beleive they currently have them in stock. You may pay them a little more but they stand behind and service what they sell. They are in Chicago. Good luck.
Regards,
Raskell
I used On the go solutions too. I paid more...i think the prices have dropped too. But they seem to be a quality company. There is Raisa and then Dovid, you can talk to either one. Dovid, was shocked about me asking about the video driver issue.
I would test it before, because I'm really disappointed. I owned a p3600 before and a lot of other htc-devices and as far I can say the cruise is the worst device I have ever used (to be honest, this will be my last one, too).
I'm not sure, if only my device is that crappy, because it is so damn slow. For example if I want to load the start-menu (the small default one) I have to wait about one minute. To open the program-folder I wait another 30 seconds. Everytime I can watch the cruise painting line after line...
Yesterday I hard reseted the device and I have the same results again.

I just sold my HTC TyTN II (aka Kaiser) and bought the HTC Touch Cruise (aka Polaris).
It kicks ass

If you're happy with what you have and want to remain happy, then, don't buy it. Otherwise, you'd become like us, scrambling everywhere, looking for something that could make this sucker run, at least, decently the way it was designed for.
look here
http://www.jr.com/JRProductPage.process?Product=4217394
J&R is a large standard company and they can price match the online store's price too. Try them.
Thinking about buying a Polaris locally and wondering if you guys can give me some tips on what to look for...
How can I differentiate between the NA version and the European version?
Does the base rom come with Voice Command?
Are there various generations? (ie G3 vs G4 for Wizards)
When testing, how long should I wait for the phone to finish booting?
etc...
The guy is selling a Mint condition Polaris for $600 which is very appealing but makes me wonder since the market value is still 650-700. The guy has good refs though which got me talking to him in the first place. I'll be meeting up with him tomorrow so any tips or suggestions are greatly appreciated.
Hey Guys,
I'm thinking of selling my TC. Although I don't know how much I can sell it for. There aren't too many used ones I found like on craiglist to go by so I just listed it at $450obo. Do you guys think thats a decent price or is it over priced? Plus do you think that the fact that I changed the ROM to the light ROM by swtos (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=368677)would make it cheaper?
Thanks for your suggestions
Julian
i dont knoow if it would be cheaper but definately NOT more expensive because then that would mean your selling the rom.
450 is prety cheap.
Darn! I should've put more on craigslist then! =)
j/k I stopped using my TC about three weeks ago and bought a Palm Centro. now I'm sick of that phone and just ordered the new N95 so I'm just trying to offset some of the costs...
=)
Also, is there a For Sale section on the XDA forums? I couldn't seem to find one...
Julian
Hi
this is to anyone who is selling a TC, i am interested . But hopefully its a unlocked one and english original rom with it. And better be a 100% working one. Cause I have had it with my orbit 2.
Living in uk. So anyone from uk selling their TC would be great.
PLS pm me if you are interested to sell.
Thank you.
Hi Guys,
Quick Question, I have a Nokia N80 (yes, blasphemy around here - I Know). I don't want to sell it but instead I would like to trade it for a windows mobile 6 or 6.1 device.
I found a few sites that are for cell phone trading, but they seem to be more for profit of trading in old phones to buy new ones, not straight up trades.
Anyone here know of a good cell trading site, or, interested in trading a win mobile device for a N80 with a bunch of extras? It's all legit, I bought it myself in Brazil and paid for some apps for it etc. No stolen crap
Thanks,
Matt
www.swapz.co.uk
That's the only reputable one I know of
Thanks Leoni,
This site looks rad, but, because I'm in canada, shipping and mhz/voltages may be an issue.
I'll keep an eye out here though, look to be some great deals.
Thanks,
Matt
Have a look at www.esato.com they have a good marketplace going, and the a lot of the users are from different countries and quite a few international trades take place.
Steve
Dawso,
Thanks, this place looks great. Its too bad I have to wait 30 days before posting to the marketplace though
Thanks for the link either way, I'd never seen this place before and looks quite active.
Matt
