I have lost the charger for my Palm Tungsten E. I know I can buy a replacement online, but I need to use my Palm quickly and don't want to wait for something to be shipped if I can avoid it. Most stores don't seem to stock the charger for the E, since it's an older model. My question: will the charger from any other Palm/Treo/Handspring model work with my PDA, and if so, what stores (in the greater Atlanta area) are likely to carry it?

Palm Calendar HotSync? Why is it failing? [more inside]
posted by alightfoot on Aug 30, 2006 - 6 answers

The sound on my Palm Tungsten E switches randomly on and off. I'll set an alarm, test and hear it, but by the time it goes off, my Palm has decided to go silent. Under preferences / sounds and alerts everything is set to high. My battery level is fine. Even though I can't hear anything through the palm's speaker, if I plug in headphones, there's sound. Then, a few hours later, the sound comes back. I'm not sure, but I think it happens mostly at night, so I'm wondering if there's some hidden "switch sound off after 8pm" setting somewhere.

Mac question: I love iCal for calendering, but hate its to-do functions because they don't sync with the categories in my Palm. Is there any way to use iCal for a calendar but manage to-dos with another program? Or do I have to move both my calendar and my tasks in Palm Desktop?

My gf wants to buy a Blackberry. She knows zip about them and isn't that tech savvy. She's on a Windows machine at work and plans on getting a Mac for home in the future. I know lots about Palm devices but nothing about these things. What's all the advice you got on Blackberries? Models to avoid/ get, tricks to do with them, good sites w/ reviews, best places to buy, etc. Thanks!

I miss my Palm Vx. I need a new PDA to act as an ebook reader (my mpx200 handles my multimedia/organisational needs). Good battery life, decent screen required - lightness would be a definate plus. As would student-wallet friendliness (I'm not scared of ebay either). [more inside]
