i've arrived
retired...!I've finally joined the throngs, the hundreds of thousands of folks (maybe it's millions, I dunno) who have moved into the new millennium, smartphones in tow.

I've got a Treo 650. With a camera, for criminy's sake.

Little Nokia, thanks for the years of service; you've done. Tungsten E, you can now retire. Come to think of it, with the screen protector I put on after day 2, it's in pretty decent shape, other than having the name and Palm logo rubbed off. You folks at Palm, listen up - ingrave it, rather than put that cheesy stencil thingy on it. But I digress...

the second greatest thing since sliced bread in a bag
It was almost too easy, the setup, getting the most important data and apps (HandyShopper, yay!) from the well used and well beloved Tungsten. Getting RealPlayer (with the secured tunes!) up and running. And I can't believe I've even gotten used to the keyboard.

But the best: Having my contacts and the phone integrated, all in one. Being able to jot down numbers in Memo, or get numbers from tasks or an Excel spreadsheet (grins!) then copy and paste them into the dialer. I just called my doctor's office, made an appointment, and while on speaker, put the appointment in my calendar. Wow.

Again, another example of technology that works, and works wit ya. Oh, don't get me wrong: I still luuurrrve my Harmony the bestest. But after approximately 18 hours in, I'm really, really loving my little Treo. Shiny, shiny.

Now if I could only figure out how to answer calls without inadvertantly hanging up...
