Can I hotsync more than one user to my Treo?

Title says it all. I am curious to know whether I can hot sync to my Treo with more than one user. If so, how? Thanks.

I assume you can, because I created a temp one when updating to V1.04 (Verizon) so you could probably do it the same way. Create another name: Perform a HotSync operation with your desktop computer. You will be asked to select a user or create a new account. Select New and enter a completely new user name (such as "TempDelete"). Let the HotSync operation complete. Your smartphone will contain none of your user data at this point.

This is how I was able to got to that step, possibly create one without the hard reset:

1. Perform a HotSync operation to back up your data. Make sure your conduits are set to "Synchronize the files" (how).

1. Next, you'll be performing a hard reset. Remember:
2. A hard reset will erase everything on your smartphone, so make sure your data is backed up before you do this.

• Also, you may need to re-enter third-party software registration codes when you restore your data later, so keep these handy or request them from the third-party software vendor before proceeding.

1. To perform a hard reset:
2. Press the Battery Door Release button and slide the battery door downward to remove it from your Treo. Do not remove the battery.
3. Take out the stylus and have it ready.
4. Hold down the Power/End button.
5. While still holding the Power/End button, use the stylus to gently press the RESET hole on the back.
6. You will see palmOne logo and a progress bar first, then a circular Palm Powered logo. Do not release the Power/End button until the second, circular Palm Powered logo appears.
   Keep holding the Power/End button during this screen. When you see this screen, release the Power/End button.
7. Your smartphone will ask you to confirm "Erase all data?" Press the Up button on the 5 way navigation control.
8. Your smartphone will ask you to tap three targets, set date and time, and confirm setup. Do this now.
9. Perform a HotSync operation with your desktop computer. You will be asked to select a user or create a new account. Select New and enter a completely new user name (such as "TempDelete"). Let the HotSync operation complete. Your smartphone will contain none of your user data at this point.
