Anyone know if it is possible and if so how to setup a Treo 650 (Verizon) network that I can use the wireless at home with the Treo to get on the web etc.

I'm not sure exactly what you mean from your question....it's a bit ambiguous.
Do you mean using your Treo wirelessly at home with say Wifi, or using the Treo as the modem for your network?

I'll assume the latter, so if you mean using the Treo as a modem for a data connection which is then shared, then yes it is possible. I don't currently have it configured but have done so in the past. Simply setup the Treo on one PC as a modem (wired or otherwise), get the network connection working over the modem and then enable Internet Connection Sharing on that PC.

The one thing I was always curious about but never actually tried was this. I have a bluetooth access point which I use with the Treo to get on the network at home. I wondered whether it would work in reverse in that if I connected via GSM to the Internet, and then also connected to the Bluetooth access point, whether I could use this as a gateway? I'll have to try it out sometime.
