Default Hello from PA

First post of first-time Smartphone owner (700w). Love some of the features so far and still learning about most of the functionality/settings. I owned a Palm Pilot 5x years back so lots of things are quite similar. Bluetooth headset and leather case belt holster came with the store purchase and I found a 4 GB SD card online for $41 so that will be here on Tuesday. Looking forward to lots of enjoyment with the new toy.

Hey Darren! Welcome to ET! $41 for a 4 gigger sounds like one heck of a bargain! Congrats on the new Treo and the steal on the SD Card! Make yourself at home here! For the most part we are all a pretty friendly, easy going bunch!

Thanks so much and I can't wait to really make the phone be more a part of my daily routine (I drive about 150 miles a day and am in the car about 5 hours a day) so having wireless access to email and web and Bluetooth are the features I really wanted in a phone. It took me several months to pick them apart and find one that was the best fit for me so I will have fun configuring it. That is a great price on a 4GB card (that site charged $20 shipping on a $40 card while another site offered $5 shipping on a $60 card so it isn't so much that it was a cheap card as other sites had them for a similar total price). I figured I would give some sales to the site willing to think smart about their marketing in a low price though the same total price.

Darren:

You aren't implying you are going to fill up the boring drive time by using the Treo, are you?

Belated welcome to ET!!!

No, the boring drive time is rarely ever boring as I drive an '06 Honda Civic Hybrid and there is always a game to play with the "instant fuel economy" meter and trying to keep it as high as possible and concentrating on driving styles, etc. It is never boring when you drive a Hybrid but that is part of the fun of them anyway. I also have a PCMCIA card reader (hidden behind the stock Navigation screen) and it stores 999 songs but is a "mere" 1 GB card so the 4 GB card from the Treo can double as backup music when my main card runs out

During my driving of the day I usually have to close my calls via the phone and I hated having to take my eyes off the road to punch the numbers or holding the phone to my ear for the 4 minutes it takes to close the call with a human operator. Now with the Bluetooth I have hands-free capability (and can legally drive in NY while on the phone too).
