New Palmer

[Avinon]

Just bought an NZ-90 and this is my first palm ever, im a little daunted and a lot confused. I thought maybe the people here could help me, I have a 256mb memory card for it which I'm using but I feel like i've barely skimmed my PDA's surface.

I would like to be able to use it to get directions for places (no Wi-Fi card though) and I have a bluetooth phone. I need help integrating the two so that I can surf the internet through my phone on my PDA. I am trying not to spend any money on APP's so freeware is preferred but im open-minded to anything essential.

Is there a way to get it to store webpages I frequently visit on the PDA not just the ones Avant Go offers?

Also, is there a way to set it up so it can check my e-mail @ignmail.com for me or even hotmail (or G-Mail when it is out etc...)

EDIT: Also I want to move all my contacts from my phone to my PDA, how do I do this? I have a nokia 3650.

Thanks in Advance

Avinon,

Who is your phone service provider? I have the same set up as you, and I'm on T-mobile. I surf the net all the time via bluetooth connection to my nokia 3650 and GSM/GPRS.

You can send the contact information from the phone to the nz90, 1 contact at a time, via bluetooth. It's an option in the contact menu of the phone. Maybe a little time consuming but it will work.

I use net front 3.1 as my web browser. tap on the menu icon select edit and select add page memo (this stores the whole page). To save just a picture tap and hold on it for a few seconds and a pop up screan will ask you if you want to save the pic and what name to give it.

I can check both my aol email and my company email by goint directly to my online mail boxes, no added software on the nz90. I have had problems sending attachments from nz90 through aol mail and have not tried it with company mail.

I have AT&T wireless

Sorry it took so long to reply, I’ve been on vacation and on business for a while

1) Go to preferences > Bluetooth

Pair the devices via BT, settings as follows
Blue tooth = enabled
Device Name = (any name)
Allow to be discovered = yes
Allow wake up = no
Click trusted devices then click add device
Make sure BT is enabled on your phone as well
Note, you may be asked to key in an authorization code, just enter 1 in each device.

2) Go to preferences > connections > new

Name your connection (tmonet for example)
Connect to: modem
Via: Bluetooth
Device: tap to discover (your phone should be recognized) click OK
Go back to connect to: and change modem to PC

3) Go to preferences > network

Service = your connection name (tmonet)
User name = a
Password = a
Connection = your connection name (tmonet)
Click details

Connection type = PPP
Idle timeout = Never
Query DSN = checked
IP address automatic is checked
Click Script

Now you have to enter in the initialization string for your phone and carrier service. Mine is;

Send: at+cgdcont=1,"IP","internet2.voicestream.com" (this address is for t-mobile only AT+T is different)
Send CR: leave blank
Send: atd*99# (this is the number your phone dials to access GPRS)
Send CR: leave blank
End:

This is the setup t-mobile told me to use. It doesn’t use any drivers. The best way to describe it is it sets you up like you’re on a LAN with a proxy connection.

Good luck J
