Adding Vibration Alarm to the Palm TX

With them skimping the mid-high range models out of vibration, voice, and so many little extras that make PDAs usable... why don't they just go on to sell empty cases with a screen and we can pay the neighborhood solderjockey to put together a decent PDA for us?

It seems Dmitry has managed in his lunch hour to do greater improvement to the Palm PDA than Palm's entire design team has done in 3 years. Have they slipped into a coma or something? The cute new casings are nice, but you can only fool people so long with the bling-bling mumbo jumbo...

Thanks to Dmitrygr, that those happy days finaly seems to came back to Palm scene.

If you can somehow get the T5's Bluetooth stack onto the TX, thereby enabling proper BT DUN functionality that does *NOT* time out after a minute on CDMA phones (specifically, the Verizon Moto V710/E815/V3c) I'll personally send you $50 PayPal or cash.

Search through PIC's threads for my frustrations/concerns on Palm's BT crippling on the LD/TX. Very frustrating for us users that need Verizon's good voice coverage and cannot switch to a GSM carrier!

All I need is *stable* Bluetooth DUN connectivity on my Moto V710/E815 and my TX. The same phones worked perfectly with my T5, T3, and Zire 72 and a colleague's Zodiac 2. But Palm broke something on the LD (won't connect at all to CDMA BT phones) and the TX (times out after ~1 minute). Now, the TX DOES work in a VERY limited fashtion (it CAN send/receive data as long as a continuous data stream is kept going) but if you are trying to browse web pages and read the text in them or do Mapquest or some web page that's input intensive (ie typing in an address) it times out.

Feel free to PM or email me if you need additional details on this procedure. I can personally verify the above combination of phones & handhelds that works and does not work. Also, none of my Moto phones were using hacked seams or unofficial firmware. Just a stock V710 firmware and the E815 with the ##DIALUP command issued to turn on BT DUN profile.

You WILL be my hero if you can get this working--and I can assure you that I will be good for the $. For the record, I'll offer an additional $50 for a bug-free Graffiti 1 library hack that doesn't cause Blazer to crash when inputting text.

I take my hat off to your ingenuity! It's most impressive!

hopefully they can trace/monitor liberals like you (the enemy within) who are working hard to undermine our country.

If you have connections to al Qaeda and you have known links to other terror groups, I have no problem that your phonecalls are wiretapped by special authority of the President of the United States as needed. I also have no problem if you are a terrorist and the CIA has to hang you upside down from your balls to get information out of you.

I have no interest protecting the rights of terrorists. The game has changed and I sure don't trust these weak-kneed liberals to protect us from attack.

Thank God Republicans keep winning elections.

I've heard Gekko has terrorist connections ... Jeff Kirvin told me ...

They said I only argued for the sake of arguing, but after an hour I convinced them they were wrong...

I think we should be grateful for the sacrifice all allied nations made in the fight against the Axis tyranny. Putting things into perspective:
- around 25 million Soviets died fighting the Germans, more than all the other allied nations put together.
- it took some persuasion (ie Pearl Harbor and Churchill) before the USA decided to get involved in what was the ultimate war on terror.
- as far as owing the USA, the US economy made quite a nice profit from the war materiel provided to Britain, the Soviets and other allies.
- it was in America's interest to get involved in the European fight as Nazi Germany was an ally of Japan. Hitler wouldn't have stopped at Europe, if he'd been left alone it would only have been a matter of time before he used New York or Washington DC as a "test site" for Nazi Germany's version of the Manhattan Project. - Left alone, Nazi Germany and Imperial Japan would have invaded the USA. It's better to fight the enemy on their turf than on your own as it's their turf which gets smashed to bits.

So, let's do the honourable thing and acknowledge that the Allied WWII victory was a group effort.
