Palm OS to Windows Mobile 5 - Treo Forum

tayyabr · 01-09-2007, 03:56 AM

I live in Canada and recently I have gotten interested in Treo's. I wanted to buy the 750 but its not being available in Canada anytime soon so I decided to go for the 680. There are 2 things I dont like about the 680: One is the camera, but I cannot change that and the other is the OS. So i was wondering if anyone knows how (or if i can) change the OS from Palm to Windows. I would much rather prefer Windows than Palm just becuase of how it looks and I'm used to it. Please advise me on wheter or not i should change it or how i can change it.

Thanks
Tayyab

Nope, your stuck with whatever OS the phone comes with.

I've gone the opposite way and switched from a PalmOS device to a Windows Mobile one, both have there good points and bad points
