Does anyone know how to get the photos in the contacts off of a Treo 700p onto my Mac? I am using isync in Os X 10.4.11. Everything syncs fine but the photos that I took with the phone while inside the contacts application (i.e. run Contacts, select a contact, click edit, click the “grey head” picture select camera, take picture, click save) don’t transfer to the address book. I have taken a lot of contact photos this way and would like them to transfer to the correct contact in my mac address book.

Thanks!

I have the same experience with Sprint — the service is basically great, but the support is lousy. It pains me to say this, given that my father is a rather high-up exec in the company, but it is what it is.

Looks like I’ll have to upgrade once my contract is up in October 2007 :P

KMaps huh?

I don’t have a SmartPhone but have noticed that Google is touting their maps mobile interface at http://www.google.com/gmm

Does that jive with the 700P?

Sigh.

In another life I’m a trainer for Sprint Customer Service (*2) so I apologize for you having to deal with that.

On the upside, the Treo 700p kills the 700w, and I’m glad your back, even if it was for the device and not the service.

Oh! and Sprint utilizes CDMA technology like Verizon.

And we have another new term from Mike D: "trendsucking". Love it.And no, Chris, Sprint is not a GSM carrier, and the 700P doesn't have a SIM card.Mike, you should be able to sync using Bluetooth (even without crappy $40 software). I wroteup a little tutorial way back when for doing so with the 650, which may still work for the 700P. It might be worth a shot.

It looks like you will need to make a slight modification to your “ten things” now!

Dammit, still can’t trade in my phone (Justine and I got matching phones last fall when I added her to my plan) for quite some time without paying with my first born.
I’ve been drooling over that damn phone for some time – trying to get the IT OPS department to pony up for it.
