You can upload directly to facebook and photobucket, but where is flickr?? Maybe third party app will help with this.
You can't download songs over 3G on Amazon, you have to wait until you're on WiFi (is iPhone the same way?). You can purchase songs, but they will just wait in queue until you connect to WiFi.

the iPhone can download songs over 3G. Come on Palm, I'm starting to get upset.You can upload directly to facebook and photobucket, but where is flickr?? Maybe third party app will help with this.

Since I have wi-fi at home like most people this is not a big deal. I will just have to manage all my movies and music from home.
Does anyone know if there is an appication kind of like slingbox, but for music only? It would be awesome if I could load all my music to one server/website and then just stream my own music. This would really lower the hit of only having 8 gigs for me.

Desktop syncing not supported, BUT...
Tip on page 275.
A number of third-party applications are available that let you synchronize data on your Pre phone with a desktop application. Visit palm.com/migrate-pre
.to learn more.

I was afraid of this, and not sure why they would do it this way. I guess it saves on Sprint's network bandwidth You can't download songs over 3G on Amazon, you have to wait until you're on WiFi (is iPhone the same way?).

. But as far as the iPhone, I believe it was about 6 months ago they changed Itunes where you could download over 3G.Originally Posted by jayzun:

That tells me they think their network might become overloaded. You can upload directly to facebook and photobucket, but where is flickr?? Maybe third party app will help with this.

the next thing I'm waiting to hear is that SlingPlayer will be available but only over wifi. This would deffinatelly be a killer for me.
Anyone who cares enough about Sling or OTA music downloads to get upset by a wifi limitation will simply hack that functionality back in. This just protects Sprint's network from the casual users.

Not in the user's guide, but saw this in the "Fact Sheet":Not as upset as I am to see there's no voice dialing on the Pre!!!

Originally with the iPhone the reason you couldn't download over 3G was because of agreements with the recording companies. All of that changed when Apple announced a tiered pricing plan (not sure how related the two are).
I'm guessing this has more to do with the Amazon music store and it's contracts than with Sprint's network.

I love how you reset the Pre...hold the power button and toggle the ringer switch!! Lol! I am sure that this wont cause premature wear on that switch! Lets hope that it wont need many reboots!

The 3 key combo is much easier to do... and less abrasive on the unit.I love how you reset the Pre...hold the power button and toggle the ringer switch!! Lol! I am sure that this wont cause premature wear on that switch! Lets hope that it wont need many reboots!
What does this mean?

There's a program called Simplify Media for itunes, winamp and wmp. It works for computers and iPhones, here's hoping they develop it for the Pre. It wouldn't hurt to shoot the developers an email to ask/request it.Since I have wi-fi at home like most people this is not a big deal. I will just have to manage all my movies and music from home.

If it does need daily reboots, then I'll do with the Pre what I did with the Storm. Return it. I want a functional phone; not a hobby like the Storm has been for so many users. The Storm forum mods constant berate anyone who refuses to install the OS-of-the-day on their phone. My retort to them--I don't want my cell phone to be a HOBBY! I just want it to work.
Saw that you can use Windows Media Player to sync your music from your computer to the phone. The Palm Music Assistant lets you copy music from the phone to your computer, should you not want to use WMP. Good news, except I'm on a Mac. Here's hoping that Doubletwist starts supporting the Pre...

Sounds like the phone can replay any media that it supports. So when a call comes in, maybe it can play a video.What does this mean?

That's interesting... I guess that the Pre supports WMA, then, even though it's not listed?Saw that you can use Windows Media Player to sync your music from your computer to the phone.
