Anyone here own a Treo? [phone]

[Selena]

Ok. I just bought the Verizon Treo 700w which has windows mobile. Now I really want Bejeweled (the game) on my phone. But in the little verizon software store area it doesn't have bejeweled but rather it has bedazzled, which I do not want.

So my question is, if I were to download bejeweled straight from internet explorer, and attempt to run it on my Treo, would it work? I don't want to purchase bejeweled, only to find out it does not work at all.

Any feedback or suggestions are welcome.

I'll get back to you on that

You may need a verizon hack to get it to work but I would think with windows mobile being similar to XP it should work but no guarantees.

[Selena]

Well i tried it out and it did end up working. I'm really glad. There isn't much space available for programs on the phone, but its enough to fit the games i wanted on it.

I wish I knew what you were talking about.

the treo is a phone. i got the 700w which runs windows mobile. and thus has a hardrive like interface i guess. i was asking if i could download the game straight to the hard drive. But I ended up getting a pocket pc and windows mobile compatible version of the game from www.astraware.com

Bejewelled, bedazzled, befuddled - I try to keep up, I really do.

How much did the phone set you back ?

[Selena]

this phone made me almost cry when i bought it. my mom wouldn't extend our contract so it ended up costing me 600 and something bucks. add that together with the shopping i did 2 days before and the hundred dollar haircut and haircoloring i got done on saturday, and i spent 1000 in 3 days...i almost choked when i looked at my paypal balance.

I had a treo a while back and really liked all it could do. Sadly I only ended up using it as a "phone" and checking email and such but didn't end up using much other stuff. I also hated how big it was since I was used to having a flip phone that could fit in my pocket comfortably lol.

Bejeweled it fun though and I had it on mine. Can't remember the name of the other one I really liked playing but it was something like Feeding Frenzy or something.

Cool phone/"PDA" but just too big for my taste.

I have a windows mobile phone and use handango.com for the mobile software - games etc.

My mother has the treo, and she downloads games and it works.

Selena, and all my other windows smartphone users:

I'd recommend picking up a SD card. These are the same memory cards that are typically used in digital cameras. You can get them fairly cheap 128MB for $10.00 from Staples or Best buy. You can store games, pictures, mp3s and programs on there. It's a sweet deal because it doesnt take up the phones hard drive space which is used for running programs. If you don't have a memory card and are using the phone's space it might run slower. Just an FYI. But congrats on bejewled.

Actually, you meant a mini sd card for smartphones. make sure it's the mini, regular SD card won't work.

Also there are better deals online you can get for larger drive space such as 2-4GB for mini SD for cheap prices

for games and music, you need tons of space.

[Happy]

Nagiee,

Some take mini and some take normal SD. But your correct they do have great deals on larger ones. :)

[Selena]

Thanks for the advice. I just tried the memory card from my digital camera and it fit just fine so I'm glad to know that. I'll probably get a pretty large storage card beause i do want to put music on it and also be able to put a lot more games on it.

[nagiee]

Oh one more thing, you need some extra add on battery. the ones that come with it sucks for games and music.

[Selena]

How do i go about getting add on battery for the phone?
