can the treo 600 play mp3s?

Not only can it play MP3's, but you can set them up as Ringtones. Talk about impressing friends. Check out either Lightwav or Callfilter.

I prefer Pocket Tunes. Nice app and love the iTunes skin.

What do you all think about buying headphones that also will take calls (hands-free)? It sounded like the right thing to do, but the few products I have seen (Seidio Treo 2-in-1 Headset and the Links) got a few really bad reviews.

My understanding is that without a stereo headphones, any MP3 files only play through the speaker phone-- so I need to buy an adapter or stero headphones, but if I can't manage phone calls, it doesn't sound that conveniet, whereas if I could receive calls while listening (and not having to switch out) that would be great. Any suggestions?

While the Treo can play MP3's, I'd suggest an iPod if you're into music. I have the Treo and the iPod. While it be nice to have one device, I don't think we are there yet.

yeah, I would like but cannot afford, so until I get rich, is there a good solution out there, or should I just switch off between the hands free and the stere oheadphones?

I understand totally. With the price of "gadgets" it's difficult to justify the cost. Plus, with the Treo you've got a perfectly good little MP3 player. I do not have any personal experience with the stereo headphones you described.

Good luck.

Hi,

Are there any mp3 and video player software out there that can be dowloaded for free for the T600?:confused: :confused:
Thanks

I think it's safe to say that Pocket Tunes is the app you'd like to use for playing MP3's. There are two versions: Standard and Deluxe. Deluxe gives you the ability to listen to internet streaming radio via Shoutcast This is a cool feature. I'll have a complete review up for PocketTunes in the next few weeks.

Not sure about video players...:confused:
