Since i started using Windows Mobile phone i have been realising how simple a fast Palm OS is. Especially the Calendar in Palm.
Is there a way to use Palm OS:s Calendar on Windows Mobile?

I wish there was a way! I miss the Palm Calendar, and even more: I miss DTBK5!!!
Unfortunately I believe the answer is no.

ive tried so many different calendar applications for ppc but none of them really can take Palms place...
wonder if someone can make a rip of Calendar from Palm Os. Im already enjoying Treos great threaded sms.
I've noticed that the PalmOS Agendus calendar program is now available on PocketPC, so perhaps that brings a bit of the PalmOS style calendar to the Windows world?
Peter, thank for the tip.
Checked it out. It doesnt look as Palm Calendar at all. Its just...too much.
The simple yet smart Palm Calendar...fast and few clicks.
i guess ive become one of those nostalgic ex Palm users nagging about WM.
Yet theres still hope. Im sure someone can make a copy someday.

Nik, yes - I understand. My wife uses a Palm Treo 680 and really likes the calendar app. It does look good, and fast. I've never cared for the WM calendar app much myself. The calendar entry form is OK, it is the views that I don't like much. I tried Pocket Informant but (IMhO) it is way too complex for my needs.
I use SBSH's PocketBreeze now. It is not a calendar but rather a Today screen plug in for the Calendar. So you still use the default Calendar to add appts, but you can use PB to view everything. It is quite powerful yet simple.

couldn't agree more.
I installed the trial version of Agendus and I find it too busy and cluttered. Almost unusable on the 750's screen. I think I will give it another day and then uninstall it.
Happy to join you club of ex Palmers winging about WM...

I'm seeing lots of reports of leaked WM6.1 for various HTC devices. Since the Treo is an HTC device at heart, has anyone heard/seen any signs of a WM6.1 ROM for the Treo 750? I suspect we may never see an official 6.1 ROM for the 750 from Palm or the operators...it's already been through a WM5->WM6 upgrade in its lifetime and that's more than most devices.
Just take a look here:

Thanks. That's a little too generic at this point!
Not really. I have Medianet working, (don't have video service so cannnot test), and all of the AT&T links are removed. The only downside I see so far is no MMS. All of the Palm customizations are still functioning, except the SMS which is threaded by outlook automatically now. Plus its super fast!
I must advise you read directions fully though. If you're not the type to play with your phones firmware/bootloaders/etc then you might want to wait a bit before jumping into this stuff.

Oh I thought the threaded SMS wasn't there at all. Didn't realize WM6.1 does threaded SMS all by itself. So what do you really love / can't live without in 6.1?
I recently switched from using the ATT Tilt to the Cruise (mainly because it's smaller/lighter to carry around) It's mainly working ok, but I have a few questions:
1) Does anyone know of a decent handwriting recognition software out there I could use? On the TILT i got used to the "block-recognizer," as the lesser of evils, but i would LOVE to find software that can use the whole screen. I use these devices a lot, so after a while that lower left corner becomes all scratched up (even using a screen protector) , and then you have to pay about $200 for a new screen, since the characters no long respond well to Block Recognizer. I"ve tried the "Transcriber" that comes with Windows Mobile 6, and it seems awful, as do the several other programs i found online, such as Pen Writer and Caligrapher, i think they're called? Back when i used Palm/Treo devices, i really loved the Teal Script program, but it doesn't seem to work for W Mobile? Anyone know of anything that could work??
2) Some things worked better on the Tilt, i guess becuase of the ATT software? For example, on Tilt you can use the word completion software in the Calendar mode, but on the Cruise it doesn't come up. And the word completion software "remembers" two-word or longer phrases in the ATT Tilt software, but not in the Cruise. Is there any work-around to be able to do this on the Cruise too??
3) Is it worth trying to upgrade to 6.1 on the Cruise, through some kind of cooked ROM, or better to wait until HTC finally (hopefully) releases the 6.1 ware??
Thanks much!!
Daniel
1. sounds like transcriber

Sorry, but Transcriber is already on the device, and it seem terrible to use?!! Isn't there ANYTHING out there that works ok??
Thx much!

Hi all, I'm searching for a program I had on my Diamond when I was running windows mobile 6.1. It allows you to swipe your finger, from up to down or vice versa, on either side of the touchpad to launch an assigned program.
I have no idea what it's called and can not for some reason find any information about it at all. If someone out there knows what it is called (or better yet a link to it), I would be extremely grateful.
Thank you for your time and please don't tell me that I have been using this program in my imagination for the last six or so months. ;-)
I knew I wasn't crazy (completely)
Amazingly no one relpied with in almost 24hrs. I guess no one likes me here . On the plus side I found the application . It's name is Butler and can be found here
Code:

Thanks anyway people. I hope at least one person finds this useful.
Hi Everyone,
A few days ago I bought a Palm Treo 500 on eBay which arrived yesterday. I assumed it would be just like my very worn out XDA Orbit, just with a keyboard and no touchscreen. It seems I was very much mistaken. The Palm runs WM6 Standard and I am stunned at all the missing features compared to the professional version.
Some current annoyances are:
Outlook wont let me specify more than one email account at the same domain. It says name already used.
I can't customise the home screen and or start menu.
Cannot edit repeating entry pattern in outlook
Cannot create word and excel docs
and on and on and on....
I always liked my Windows Mobile but I had only ever used the Pro version.
So, my question is:
What can I do about my Treo? Can I upgrade it to the Pro version. I know I can buy extra software to address some of my issues (docs to go, pocket informant etc) but spending on extra apps seems daft when I could have just bought something like an XDA mini with the pro OS in ROM.
Thanks for your help
Richard
Someone with the same device needs to dump his rom take out the drivers,
insert them into a WM 6.1 rom at best, create an image and upload it here.
Your Treo seems to be the only model without touchscreen.
I could not find a anything about your device on this site,yet.
Thank you for your reply. It looks like I will have to either accept the shortcomings and buy add-on software or stick it back on ebay and look for something different.
Cheers
Richard
