Treo 700wx issues

[JohnMP]

I am new to the Treo family (and PDA) I had my Treo 700wx (Sprint) for 2 weeks so far and I would like to keep it but I have the following issues that are making me rethink my purchase:

I think Treo 700wx has possibilities of being great but it is lacking some features!!
1) Is it possible to increase volume on speakerphone and ear piece?

2) I put the phone is keyguard manually (so when I put in my pocket I do not press keys by mistake) by using (option & power) which also turns the device off. when I get a voice message the phone wakes up rings one time and if I am not around it will go back to sleep and I will not even know I got a voice message.
Is there a way to keep the phone awake and ring over and over so I can know that I got a voice message even if I am not by the phone?

3) Is it possible to sync with the SD card?

4) Is it possible to make a call while I am browsing the Internet?

5) What is best Bluetooth headset (not headphone) with stereo?

6) Is it possible to play music play on the Bluetooth?

7) Is it possible to turn of the click sound when I select programs from Start button and program list etc...?

8) What is best Calendar/Task program?

9) Is there any concern about virus, spyware, etc.. on the Treo 700wx?


Thanks for your help
John

I will try my best here....most of your answers are right here, or in a couple other forums (treocentral.com and ppcgeeks.com)

1 other that the obvious volume increase buttons, I haven't found a volume boost hack yet.

2 There are apps for that...PhoneAlarm, PhoneSuite, or even a free app TreoAlert PPCGeeks.com :: View topic - TREO ALERT 5.2 - New version!

3 sync with the SD card? If you mean drag and drop with on the card while your synced (like a card reader), then yes, you can.

4 No, you can only use one radio or the other, if a call comes in while browsing, your info will halt, and allow the call to come in.

5 I don't use stereo, but I have heard great things (and want myself) a Jabra 8010 (?) it comes in two parts and allows either mono or stereo usage (only one like that so far).

6 Only if you have a stereo bluetooth

7 yes, go to settings, sounds and notifications, and it is right there on the first tab.

8 The calendar included is pretty good, but there are many, in the forums, and on software dites like Handango

9 Not really yet, I heard it explained once, and it really isn't probable to get a virus at this point unless you really try

I hope this helps, I am sure many other people will post in more detail with more links, but if you want any more info, feel free to ask...I can tell you a lot more given the time, and if you go to this and the other two forums at least, you will have more info, friendly people, and genius programers than you could ever ask for!!!!!

Good luck!!!!!

(P.S. I LOVE my WX)

there is a volume hack or app I saw it at ppcgeeks, stereo head phone hack ppcgeeks & many other places, side effect to it is better all around blue tooth because it gives you a new blue tooth stack
haven't anything really on virus or trojans

Sprintusers

The volume hack you refer to...is that Hannip's? He is great at those hacks/apps he works on, I would swear by his stuff. In this case though the BT stack he pulled to use is from a WX, so it won't help out with a WX (works great to get A2DP on a w though).

Bumping up to see if there is anything new on a volume booster for the 700WX.
