What a frustrating weekend!
I am an died in the wool Palm devotee.
(Pocket PC cannot handle my 4500 contacts)
I have owed a Palm V, Handspring Visor Platinum, Various MMedia Clie, Tungsten E, and now a Zire 72. Definitely the best PDA I have ever owed. (I do not like the slide out on the T3)
I am an IT reseller, consultant, support professional to the SME sector in Dublin Ireland. I have always used IR to connect my various Nokia phones to my Palm mainly to collect mail, but I liked the look of the direct dialling and SMS using Bluetooth with the new Zire (and T3). I thought of getting a new Nokia 6230 and seeing as I was due a phone upgrade with Vodafone IE, I decided to get one. To my dismay I then found out that Nokia have changed the Bluetooth driver as from the 6310i and now it does not support direct dialling and SMS collection!!!
How frustrating! I do a check on the web and clearly I am not the only one to have had these problems.
OK, perhaps that Treo600 will do all in one. Bought one yesterday, and guess what, it does not! Why cant I see my contacts sorted the way I like, as on all my other varied Palm devices., by Company and name? The Treo does not so you a contacts icon on the home screen, it can only be access from the phone menu, and then only by name, not company. Also in Ireland, the SMS with Vodafone does not work!!!! aargh!!
Can you provide any help with the Sort by Company sort issue??
Just so as not to confuse us...this isn't a 'new' updater for the 600...it was released in May. All 600's sold since June, and ALL Verizon 600's should have come out of the box with this version of the phone firmware.
