 It appears a lot of Treo 700p users are having some issues with skipping with the bundled Pocket Tunes audio player. Thus, I decided to get in contact with NormSoft and find out more about it. They have always been very responsive to their customers. Unfortunately, I could not get much out of them on an official response. Here is their official statement...
"Palm engineering and Normsoft have been exploring the issue and we hope to have more information shortly."
However, there is a workaround to minimize some of the skipping. You can disable the pTunes preference to turn off the screen automatically. Then, you will have to use the power button to turn off the screen, but it should help minimize the skipping.
Hope this helps... |

 I really did not think that we would have to create a software compatibility list for the Palm Treo 700p. However, there appears to be other subtle differences that make the Palm Treo 700p a unique device. In addition, several users have asked if I was going to publish a compatibility list for the 700p. Thus, you are reading this note.
Why Palm continues to do this to developers, I really do not know. However, we have to turn to the developers and the Palm community to provide the answers.
With that said, if you have a Palm Treo 700p and have problems with a software title that seems to work fine for Treo 650, please let us know. Links to the software compatibility lists are found on the left side of the page. Thank you!

It looks like Palm has put the rumors to an end by revealing their latest Palm OS device, the Palm Treo 700p. It includes dual-band CDMA 2000 EvDO radio, 128MB non-volatile memory (60MB user available), 2GB SD card support, Intel XScale 312 MHz processor, 320 x 320 color TFT Screen, Palm OS 5.4.9, 1.3-megapixel digital camera, and built-in Bluetooth 1.2.
"The release of this Palm OS based product on the latest high-speed network technology is music to the ears of our dedicated installed base of Palm OS customers and clear validation that we intend to continue to focus on multiple platforms for our solutions," said Ed Colligan, president and chief executive officer of Palm, Inc. "This flagship product - the second new smartphone Palm will introduce this calendar year -- offers our world-class usability combined with a smarter phone, wireless email, built-in browser, and rich media capabilities - all at blazing speeds on the EvDO network."
Pricing and availability for the Palm Treo 700p smartphone will be announced later by Sprint and Verizon Wireless.
Update: Added many reviews to the device page for the Palm 700p (July 17, 2006). Click following link:

 So what?! Simply put, never give up! Palm is celebrating 10 years after many people have stated their doom before they even started, including their own employees! Even after many companies have entered and left the mobile computing market, Palm still stands! Congratulations Palm, and we look forward to seeing what you will deliver over the next 10 years!
I have included a few links below from Palm's coverage of the event. One link gives us an interesting interview with Jeff Hawkins, Donna Dubinsky, and Ed Colligan. Jeff Hawkins was co-founder of Palm along with Donna Dubinsky. Ed Colligan was employee number 20. Today, Hawkins and Colligan are still driving Palm while Dubinsky serves on the board of directors.
In addition, there is a link to a nice timeline of Palm products and milestones over the past 10 years. Of course, there is a link to the official press release. It contains some interesting factiods about the company as well.

 Are you looking to disconnect your life from the the hurried pace of life? Look no further than the Palm Z22. No, it's not the most advanced device out there. However, it is a simple straight-forward way to organize your life, which actually might help you stay on task.
I mean, how many times have you gone to lookup something on your device only to find yourself doing something else that you really do not have time to do? You might go to check your task list only to find yourself fiddling with a feature in some third-party application, watching a video, listening to music, or checking your email. It is really necessary, or even that productive, to fill every moment of every day with something such as email or a game. How about just taking a moment for yourself just to think... about God? about a loved one? about a recent experience? about a past experience? about your life? about your future?
Anyway, the Palm Z22 can help anyone get it together from the people drowning in technology clutter, as well as those drowning in paper clutter. At $89.99, it really is worth considering.

 FairUse Wizard LE is a conversion tool for Windows computers. It allows users to convert a DVD to a video file, and this resulting file can be played back on a Palm OS 5.x device using TCPMP.
Yes, you really can watch movies on your Palm OS 5.x device. I have been watching movies on my Palm device for months. It is one of the easiest ways I have found to convert a DVD to view on a Palm. In fact, it is so simple and straight forward that I wrote a user guide for others to follow. It even works for Pocket PC devices.
By the way, if you purchase the full version, you can convert a DVD to your iPod with Video, too!
