how true!

Ok, this might not be the right thread for this, but I can't resist. Don't know what forum I saw this on, but it is hilarious. And yes, I always mute my phone in church.

To get back OT ("on topic" not "Old Testament"), I use MyBible with three translations (KJV, NASB and ESV) as well as the Matthew Henry Commentary. For prayer, I simply use a memo category "Prayer" and then create individual memos for the different categories of prayer.

ROFL, Man I wish that would work in real life especially like the theatre, and every once in a while church.

Is there a way to connect the Treo to a projector? i.e., projecting power point. Not sure how beneficial it would be but would at least be nice to know if it can be done.

jfa02 · 08-12-2008, 01:41 PM

I believe that there is I am not sure how but I think I remember seeing something about that. I know you can do powerpoint with the 750 and probably the 800w.

yes, jfa is right, there is a way. it is a software by cnetx called Pocket Slide Show. The 650 is not a compatible device though. Is for windows. You would also need a vga adaptor. if anyone is interested, it is over at our store under business>presentations.
I have never used it, so no firsthand info.

I am waiting for my 680, but of course it is not wm so I guess won't work.

jfa02 · 08-12-2008, 05:05 PM

probably true may be a work around but might not be worth iyt easier to do what you want and export it to a laptop maybe and then do a powerpoint from the laptop or tether the treo and the laptop.

dwkerux · 08-12-2008, 05:25 PM

Well, I haven't had a need for it just looking for options just in case.
Say I am visiting somewhere w/o my laptop will the card reader program allow me to connect to a PC that is connected to a projector and pull off the PP file? Or does that card reading software have to be installed on the PC?

This I HAVE done! you just stick your SD card into a usb card reader(which you can buy cheap anywhere) Go to the computor, where it shows up a drive d or e, open it up and off you go. Usually the computer will be vga connected to a wall projector, everybody connects them a little bit differently, but as far as you are concerned, as long a you have a usb card reader with you, you can use the treo's sd card like a flash drive to show ppts, pics, docs, whatever you have stored there. I have done this many times. works just fine.
