I have the 700wx and it doesn't work. Does anyone know of a way to make it work with that phone?

Please let me know how that goes. I'll sell my treo700wx and replace it if I know that phone works.

N800 works great with the Palm Centro.

Windows Mobile 5 (and presumably WM6 as well) doesn't come with the Bluetooth DUN profile, only PAN. The N800 does not support PAN, only DUN. Therefore you can't use a WM5 or WM6 phone with the N800.

I'm using a Treo 700P thankfully, but it seems there are workarounds for WM6. Look here: http://www.internettablettalk.com/fo...ead.php?t=1335

"You are not going to find any phones that will support EVDO Rev A like the current data cards will. The Mogul will support EVDO Rev A with a firmware upgrade slated for this fall, but all of the current Sprint handsets are EVDO Rev 0 only." - from tpbklake @ sprintusers.com/forum on 8-18-2007

The centro supports it..

Re: A Sprint phone that works with the N800
 
Thanks dkwatts. That's what I had heard, that the Mogul and the Centro would be upgradeable to support it, but I couldn't find anything firm, and I couldn't find a list of which phones would be upgradeable. I did my due dilligence on google, but never hit paydirt.

scrappy898 does your Centro support rev A now? ImDisaster had recommended the Centro in another thread, and that's what I am leaning towards (plus who can argue with the $99 pricetag?).

Thanks.
