What about Windows XP Media Edition?

I have just purchased a new Treo 650.
It did not come with an installation CD.
In going to PalmOne, they make a big deal about the fact that the installation software is for Windows XP Home or Professional. It specifically says that Windows XP Media Edition is not supported. What does this mean? Can I not use this phone with my PC that has Windows XP Media Edition installed? Thanks for the help - from a newbie.

XP Media Center Edition is basically XP Pro with a few more bells and whistles so you should be able to use your 650 with it without problem. The warnings there probably because Palm haven't tested it with that OS and don't want to support it, doesn't necessarily mean it doesn't work

There are several people who have used XP Media Center Edition and haven't had any problems. On the other hand, I've heard of a few people calling palm with some issues and not getting any help (suprise!) because it's not a supported OS.
