PC World has a feature on some clever Treo tricks. Writer James A. Martin shares 5 ways to make the most out of your Treo. Among the tips are how to record phone calls and customize the Treo user interface.
1. Record Phone Calls and Voice Memos
Several applications let you record calls on your Treo. (But keep in mind that it's illegal to do this in some states without the other party's permission.)
try with CallRec
2. Count Carbs
Atkins dieters can keep a running tally of all the steak they're eating with Atkins Diet Carb Counter. The carb counter database includes chain-restaurant food, a graphical charting of your carb intake, a journal, and other tools. This $40 utility comes in Palm OS and Windows Mobile versions.
3. Count Seconds
Since you're dieting, you're also exercising, right? Next time you go for a jog, power walk, or bike ride, use your Treo as a sports watch.
For Treos running on the Palm OS, there's the $15 MegaClock. You could also try IntelliTimer ($30), a more feature-laden Palm OS utility.
For the Treo 700w and other Windows Mobile devices, try Timekeeper ($10).
4. Play Pac-Man and Ms. Pac-Man
You're waiting for the bus. You've already checked e-mail and voice mail. Now what? Play a game on your Treo, of course. Vintage video games, such as the classics Pac-Man and Ms. Pac-Man, are finding a new life on handhelds. We've got free trials of Palm OS and Windows versions for each game; they're $15 to keep. Here are the links:
5. Make Your Treo Look Like a Computer
PalmRevolt ($15) is a cool little utility that makes the Palm OS interface look like the Mac OS or Windows XP interface.
