PalmVNC 2.0. That is all.

Cingular Treo 650 FAQ: r34d 7415 n00bs! In fact, read everything at TreoCentral, but start with the forums. This is the place that explained how and why I need a hybrid headset in order to accomplish my internal call-recording goal.

As an aside, the music-management on the Treo is kind of not-so-hot, but it works! You must drag the audio assets (presumably MP3s) to the icon for ‘Send to Handheld,’ a PalmOne widget that installed with the 4.2.1 Palm Desktop suite, and the files are prepped for the next time you sync, where they appear to be converted into RA files which you access via a RealPlayer on the Palm.

Investigating photo syncing with iPhoto yielded cryptic references to a “PalmOne Photos” folder in your user directory’s “Pictures” folder, which apparently instantiates only if you choose to use Palm Desktop rather than iCal, AddressBook, and iSync. Here’s a resource page at Palm that doesn’t explicitly cover the 650 but which appears to apply to the documentation provided with the Treo.

BigClock doesn’t work on the Treo 650 or 600, but someone patched it for the 600; at first impression, it appears to work well enough.

Returning to the bug-up-my-nether-parts-du-jour, I have downloaded and played with PAR, and while the audio quality appears to be excellent, if subject to the rustling noises produced by handling the case, it also very definitely has a tendency to crash if you attempt to record for longer than a minute. That, coupled with the inability to make a direct internal recording, means I must keep searching. Time’s a-wasting!
