Hey, I just transferred all my Palm data to a blackberry easily, by first syncing my palm with Outlook. I spent time cleaning up contact list entries, adding “categories” for unclassified entries, etc. I can edit, compose, etc. in all applications on my PC through Outlook and sync my address book, calendar, notes, tasks, etc.. If I understand your issue correctly, perhaps you are only experiencing a problem with not being able to sync your blackberry to a Palm desktop application. Good luck.

I’m astonished that I cannot edit my Blackberry’s data on anything other than its tinykeys. This is just inexcusable.

Yeah, yeah, I know, just buy a $35 proprietary external keyboard. You’re missing the point. I’ve already got plenty of proprietary crap laying around to accommodate other manufacturers’ incomplete products. This is just software, and the folks in charge at BB haven’t deemed my needs worthy enough to write the code. Maybe they all have tiny fingers and never learned to touch-type. Maybe this is their first address book. Maybe they’ve never Hotsync’ed a Palm.

Perhaps Palm has spoiled me, but I just took it for granted that, when I sync my data from my PDA to my laptop, I should be able to view and edit on the laptop, then sync again and get the updated info on my PDA (also handy for multiple users, a secretary updating my calendar, etc.). Full-size keyboard and mouse, large monitor, calendar, contacts, tasks, update my PDA’s data while I’m working on my laptop — Palm has let me do all that for 15 years.

The Bluetooth on my Curve doesn’t connect to anything that will do so, either.

Copying my entire address book from my old Palm to my new Curve using its tinykeys isn’t a joke, it’s a travesty (since there’s no feature to transfer my old contacts). I will NEVER get another Blackberry, just because of this single, total failure. Seems I’m locked into Palm until Blackberry produces a true business-class product. Palm Pre, here I come.

Palm’s failures for software and hardware over the years are legendary; I’d think BB would take advantage of that.

I’m not sure who’s in charge down there, but they really missed the boat on this one.

Also how bout a memory and battery booster? it seems that would be the easiest for them to add and would save me 9.99$ for each app. (Not that they help me neways)

How bout vlingo or someother voice to txt app. I’m still praying to the app gods to make a text/email reader. We have apps to use voice to text and email why not one that reads your texts and emails to you? I’m on the go all day so having messages read to me while driving then reply with voice would be the greatest app ever

The version of Poynt I’m using is an unreleased preview that has the Reverse Phone Directory feature built into it.

This isn’t a leak or anything considering I’ve already shown the feature on our Best of WES page:

What about a flashlight app… I know you can already do it with the video camera.. but it’d be nice if you could just do it in one click.
