Upgrading a Treo 700p to 755p (Free!) Because of a third-party firmware patch, it is now possible to install the Treo 755p's 1.0.7 firmware release on your Treo 700p. The release is mainly a bug-fix and stablity release, so don't expect new features (unless you consider not resetting all the time a feature!)   Here's how to do it: 0) Make sure you're running the latest 700p update from Palm before you try to upgrade to the 755p version. As of this writing, that was v1.10. 1) Download the new ROM from this link: http://www.megaupload.com/?d=VPMGAJGF  (You'll... read more

Best methods for new customers to save money You can often get a better deal through an affiliate instead of going through AT&T directly.  Some places to check online are: Amazon Lets Talk Wirefly Often affiliates offer cash back via rebates for new customers (although sometimes as check cards instead of a straight check).  They can often be $100 or more, well worth checking into.   Also, some brick and mortor stores will have deals periodically.  It might be worth checking places like Wal-Mart, Sam's Club or Best Buy.  Ask in the forums if anyone is... read more

Prepaid mobile plans are payment arrangements and packages designed to allow a customer to obtain mobile phone service without a contract or service agreement.  Prepaid plans can be used to contain cost, utilize a phone line for a shorter time than a regular contract term (one or two years), and provide a low-cost entry into mobile phone usage.  Customers with imperfect credit may find prepaid particularly attractive when contracted lines ("postpaid") require a service deposit.   All of the major carriers in the United States feature prepaid plans.  Additionally there... read more

Some cell phones are locked to a particular carrier.  This is often the case when you purchase directly from a carrier or one of their affiliates.  In order to use a 'locked' phone on another network, it must be 'unlocked.'  This can be as simple as calling your carrier, sometimes special software is required, other times it must be sent off for a company/service to handle, and rarely it's actually impossible.   Many carriers have a policy of only offering an unlock code (or service) once your contract has expired, although as noted below, there are frequently... read more

So you want to know more about the "Show us your Goods" contest, huh?   Why are we doing this?   We are just launching our second Huddle and we need your help to make our vision a reality. With so many products constantly flooding into the mobile marketplace, not everyone can keep them all straight. Sometimes it would be just be helpful to say, "What did other people like me buy in this situation?" We'd like our users to be able to say:   I have Phone XYZ:   What headsets do people who have this phone use, and what do they think of them? What accessories and... read more

The most painful sins of cell phone usage:   Ridiculous ringtones: This should just say "ringtones" because every phone on the planet has vibrate these days, but having to sit through "Fergalicious" on the train is particularly heinous. Most likely culprit: 13 - 19 year old girls.   "Hey sorry - I've got another call, just a sec." We've all received important calls via call waiting, but for the other 99% of the time, just let it go. Seriously. Most likely culprit: Software sales people.           Talking too loudly: Easy to do, but equally easy to avoid... read more

AT&T allows new customers to sign-up for any of their calling plans (not pre-paid) at the listed rate (sometimes these plans are referred to as "sim-only" since you will need to purchase an AT&T sim card if you don't already have one). You will not get the discounted subsidized price for one of their phones, but for a lot of people, they either have their own unlocked phone or would rather buy a used one off ebay or just dislike the idea of being locked into a 2 year contract.   You can do this over the phone or in person at an AT&T store. I suggest going in-store since... read more
