You need to download the Sony Generic GSM Phone driver. Try the sony site. This sould let you: dial using the clie and send send sms (but not check) from the clie. This driver includes settings for Sonyerricson phones, don't select them

Or you can try some of THIS DRIVERS (http://www.palmone.com/us/support/accessories/sms.html)

Start with the Generic... the follow with the Nokia ones

Thanks, the sony generic driver works a treat, and sms function is useful with decuma input. Don't think my thumbs were made for texting!

I've tried both Sony Generic GSM Phone driver and palmOne Nokia 6310i drivers, but still meet some problems.

My NX73 can see my Nokia 6310i and build connections, but when I press "test" (in Pref => Phone,) NX73 will connect to 6310i succesfully. Suddenly, 6310i drops this connection, and then NX73 is down (I have to press reset.)

The same problem also happens when I use SMS or Contacts 5 to connect my 6310i.

Any comments?

Hm I think I found it. I hotsynced both: SonyGenericGSMDrv_UK.prc and SonyPhoneSelectionDB.pdb. But nothing. I can't find a phone option on the prefs. Is there anything i am missing here?
I've got a NX70V.
Thanks.

I installed the prcs from the link you gave me. I don't get any phone menu on the prefs, and when I try and run the PhoneLink prog, all I get is an error: PhoneLink will only run on a Palm branded handheld. :) Damn phone driver. Why doesn't it work with the sony generic driver i don't understand. As soon as I sync the sony generic driver files it says it will reset (probably to install) but nothing happens.:( Help anyone?

I advise U to delete the related phonelink updater files (SonyGenericGSMDrv_UK.prc and SonyPhoneSelectionDB.pdb) as they r only useful for Palm based SMS applications for Palm Tungsten and T devices. U need to hotsync the specific file for your phone model only from the downloaded link.
But, I do not require any phone model installation for Bluetooth connection for my SONY Ericsson Z600 and NX80V, and it works OK for SMS and Internet GPRS connections. My advise is if U r using the BT card, pls update the driver file, and in my case for PEGA-MSB1.
