Hey fellas

I have a pretty easy question. I'm very interested in the PalmOne Treo 650 because I want to use it to make sports wagers when I'm on the go. The problem is I need to make sure the device will allow me to entire PINs and passwords before I do. I have an IPAQ that I do it on now but its way too slow.

Anyway, I went to a Cingular store and under password it'd say "unassigned" and if you clicked on it, a new box would open up where you could type your password but then it would go right back to "unassigned." I figured it was some security precaution. Of course I've been to 3 more stores and been on the phone with their technical support and no help. It's really aggravating- I'm trying to buy their product and have a relatively simple question and they just can't answer it for me.

So I figured I'd find a forum and just ask someone who has one if they can do things with passwords. If anyone could just tell me if your device can go to:

1) Sportsbook.com. Under both username and password, just type: "peter" and see if it lets you on. (That's not my account- its a guest account).

2) Jagbet.com. There should be a flashing button on top that says "login here" and just type "guest" under both account and password.

That's it! There's a ton more but these should be representative. Can you get on?

Thanks a lot

just out of curiousity, what browswer are you using on your ipaq (and which ipaq, and how are you connecting?) in general, no ppc nor palm os browsers can use "pop up" for certain password sites.

My IPAQ is a H6315, is that the model?

I think I get on with GPRS and don't know the browser.

that ipaq is gsm only, and if you are using the built in browser, then any sites you can access now, you would be able to access via a treo 650, but it would not be any faster unless the difference is a new network and edge vs no edge.

sportsbook.com worked ... the other one did not.
