Treo Windows Mobile

Looks like Palm have sold out to the evil empire! Of course Microsoft would be nice to Palm to get them to use their OS on their handheld, as most of the big cellphone manufacturers have rejected WM OS. We'll have to wait & see if Palm OS survives...

Here I am at Otago Uni a couple of weeks ago - a fantastic City, nice cafes, plenty of WiFi access, but a bit cold for me though! :-)

PhoneAgent

PhoneAgent sounds like a nice solution for working with Sony Ericsson phones and Mac OSX.

Sage - Sage Project News

Sage version 1.3.6 is now available. Sage is a fantastic RSS extension for Firefox, providing standard RSS aggregator features within Fiorefox.

Posting via ECTO

Ecto is a cross-platform blog editing application, very well featured, but not free ($27.64 NZ) - you do get a trial period to put it through its paces though. It is cheaper than MarsEdit, Although MarsEdit is way cooler looking IMHO, but not cross-platform ;-)

Tungsten X

Well it looks like the Tungsten X will be released in mid October - and we are looking at filling our set of Palms with 8 of these instead of a remaining 8 LifeDrives - mainly from the stability factor. Hopefully Palm release a patch for the LD soon that fixes its many stability issues! The Tungsten X will be a more affordable solution for students, without an internal HD, but still with BT & WiFi builtin. Coupled with a large SD memory card it should offer similar feature set to that of the LD for a lower price. We shall see!
Engadget has rumoured specifications for the Tungsten X Here

More LifeDrive Issues

Ah - the never ending story... The LifeDrive has been much more stable since last updates/removal of prob apps, but I've had an issue with Documents To Go that took a little bit to sort - couldn't load powerpoint files in DTG 7.006. DTG kept complaining that it had found an earlier version on the LD. So... I downloaded & installed the DatavizTechTool to LD, used it to unistall DTG, then from DTG on Mac, chose reinstall handheld applications, did a hotsync, and HEY PRESTO - SlideShow To Go works again!

One Tutor is having issues with LD not shutting down properly & consequently draining battery - LED contues to blink every few seconds when LD 'off'. I can't find a solution to this in any forums, the closest guess is that the LD is being shutdown before the harddrive is fully parked, OR IR or BT or WiFi services are trying to connect somehow - keep posted for outcome!
