I really hate that Palm dropped that. To make matters worse, when I upgraded from my tungsten to my treo, Expenses just disappered -- I didn't notice and I subsaquently lost some of my data.

There is a way to get it back -- if you had it on an older version:

too much trouble for me, so I never did it, but there it is.

Just BTW.. SplashID has been mentioned here, but not really discussed.
It is a KillerApp that, since I began using it, I could not live without.

It stores passwords and other sensitive data (SS#, Drivers Lic. No. etc.) on the palm and the associated windows application which is kept in sync.

The data is all encrypted (on the phone and the desktop) and requires a password to get at it (I would never store this stuff on a phone without encryption). But, truth be told, I use the desktop version more. Every web login I use is in there. I usually go in every time I go to a password protected website, click on the website URL link to bring up the website and then cut-n-past the ID and password to get in.

It is very nice to have all of this stuff safe and secure all in one location.

Thank you!

I've heard of a few people that like My Checkbook.

is there a program that simlutaneously converts mp3s to ringtones, and makes the volume better? if not, what do people reccomend as the two ways to approach that issue? ive seen volume care, are there different levels of it (pro, basic, etc?)

Group, does anyone know of a phone app that will fill the treo screen with large numbers to dial the phone? I figure the grid could accommodate much larger squares to hold numbers for dialing on the go. I have voice dial, etc. , but want BIG numbers.
Thanks!

Maybe Skinner might help?

Looks like skinner doesn't change the size, just the look. Ive been after something to change the size as well for a while now. Ive talked to the developer of takephone a few times give us a larger dial pad as well. It would make a huge difference.

dail by photo allows you to change the whole UI of the phone screen but I mention it because it does enlarge or shrink the buttons a little. That might help.

I loaded PhotoDial. The demo only permits 2 photos, so it requires a purchase to really test it. As a speed dial app I like it. There are supposed to be buttons that "stick" to functions when launched (green = photo app, find = Google) neither seem to work for me. The photos are alphabetical. You have to play with spaces and punctuation to have your 9 most frequent appear on the first screen. I would have preferred a better way to assign position. There does not appear to be a natural migration of contacts to PhotoDial, each has to be added manually. Instructions are pretty thin. However, I am using it a bit more than VoiceDialit when I dial on the run.

No there is not. There are applications capable of converting MP3s to standard ring tones, but they do not have volume control built in. There is a freeware volume boosting application that some have had success with and others not - it is called PumpUpVol.

VolumeCare has a couple of levels, I use the basic level.

A ring tone management program that supports card based files is a better answer than sticking ring tone files in main memory. There are three applications that do well with them, LightWav, CallBlock and RingCare. RingCare also has a desktop companion for making ringtones.

Concerning the free applications that convert MP3s to ring tones - MusicTones and MiniTones.
