If you love TweetDeck, you can use Tweed, from Palm Pre, into like TweetDeck. Since WebOS is multi-task, open Tweed three time as you have three app at same time, set one for “home”, one for “@username” and “direct message”. Ta-da, you have “Tweetdeck”. You could also add another one more whatever you like to, such as search “column”!

As you know I own Palm Pre as I thought it’s good as I mention my one of blog some time ago. However, I saw the chart that there show the guide on compare for smartphones with multi-touch that found from WIRED online.

I thought of that and I would like to point for deaf who interest to get awesome smartphone that make you rocks dude! So, here is estimate on how much cost we, Deaf would spend within 2 years contract.

*It’s only being estimate without tax, activate charge or coverage fee.

2. There is no copy and paste feature. Imagine that its advance operator system for mobile and yet, it has no copy/paste!

3. Typing would slow me down. Of course, it would take time me to learn. Unfortunately, I couldn’t typing with one hand.

4. I fear that iPhone is like a glasses. Accessories are annoying. I prefer mobile phone in naked and be proud.

5. There is no tethering allow, at&t demand us to pay extra. Whatever I’m on road, I need an Internet on computer unlike seen on mobile phone. Yeah, I know there is Netshare but it keep removed from iTunes store.

6. 3G coverage isn’t great enough compare to EVDO. its better to await until it grow more. The more I will be satisfactory.

7. There is no video recorder mode. Have to buy an application to running iPhone as camcorder.

8. Lack battery, I may eat up battery when use pushy IMAP e-mail system. I’m medium user on surf web, e-mail and text-message.

Hello iPod Touch, here I come!

Ehh… my action is to take Centro. Red or pink, customer service asked me. I take red one, frankly, I wish there is black one but they don’t have one.

My first hand on Centro and I test it for couple hours after I sync to my laptop. Yes, I did backup what I have on Treo, since it running Palm OS. How fortunately for me, include all software and important information I have. For few minutes I have play around.

My reply…. I HATE IT!

Why? Glad you ask…

Instant Message
Centro’s IM already in there and it sucks because of limited buddy listing. I switch to my favorite Mundu and it didn’t work. So, I found new update Mundu 4.1 which function well on Centro. It allow me to send picture through AIM or Yahoo which is awesome.

E-Mail
I use ChatterEmail which I can get push e-mail like blackberry which is cool. Althought, I’m sad to know I couldn’t see LED flashing to let me know if I have new incoming message. I tried to set as pop-up to show i have new message. No, it show un-function as I couldn’t get in message or either turn it off. Text size doesn’t allow me to custom the way I like to read. The header where e-mail and subject go in the box, it appear none as it make me feel awkward to read like if something is wrong with my eye and brain.
UPDATE: Someone poke my shoulder, there is new ChatterEmail update that fix correct for Centro. I downloaded and it works so well, except the LED signaler that doesn’t flash but instead still LED on until I check it. It will turn off. That little weird but it’s okay for now.

Vibrating
The vibrating signaler is kinda weak when I put Centro in my pocket. Sure, it’s nice to have small device to feel more comfortable among to my hip. Unfortunately, I am miss some incoming message on time. For sake, I’m deaf!

QWERTY
The keyboard are so tiny, and it’s kind difficult for me to typing. The more I typing, it becomes little sore on my tip of thumb between nail and fresh. I guess I probably have to take time to get usually with tiny keyboard.

Memory
Centro have built-in 64 MB storage unlike Treo, which it have 128 MB, that’s double different. Of course, it have slot for memory card to add more. Unfortunately, Centro accept only micro-SD instead regular SD. That mean, I couldn’t use my digital camera’s SD to put in Centro and send some picture to friend or family. That’s really sucks.

Gawd! I want my Treo back! I think I’ll come back on Thursday to Sprint Repair Center to see if they have Treo 755p available. I recall one customer SVC staff said they won’t have Treo until 2 days later. So, hopefully, I can get new Treo. Or I could learn to love Centro. *gagging*

I don’t know what happen to my Treo’s display. It cracked. No worry, everything is function but the touch screen isn’t, I check. It’s my sad day, I couldn’t touch as short-cute. Some area from the display, I have hard time to read.

Good thing, I have insurance cover from my carrier service. Shall see what happen when I sent to the repair center. I’m think about get Nokia E70, if I can afford it.

History I had PDA that running under Palm OS in order:
• Visor Neo – It has no wireless, just like original PDA.
• i705 – my first wireless PDA, unfortunately Palm Network stop service
• Tungsten W – my first smartphone, but I lost and probably stole

Web browser, I select data plan only with SMS (text-msg) package. That data is incredible that I ever experience. It’s like Wi-Fi in long-range, the speed is nearly faster as DSL, since it’s under Sprint’s EvDO, the new fastest baud for data unlike EDGE (which is under GSM such as Cingular and T-Mobile). The test accord from dslreports.com/mspeed, I get nearly 900 kbps download and 100 kbps upload. Browser is much nice, it allow me two optional view – auto-fit the wide on display or standard in WYSIWYG (sort of). I able to check almost every website without flash and java. Heck, I can check for traffic, weather, web e-mail and more!

Palm’s VersaMail is fair, since it won’t vibrator with auto-sync to check by schedule to get new incoming message. Only wonderful that I can send with picture and open attachment like Tungsten, I had. So, I decide to use ChatteMail. I find is much better, unfortunately, it cost 40 bucks. I am still on 30-day trailer to see how well it can done for my need.

SMS is great, can’t argue, because it’s practice like conversation room and I can send picture (MMS), unfortunately, I didn’t select the package since I have e-mail to do for me.

Instant Messenger is very difficult to find good one. I am not comfortable with Sprint’s AIM that running on web like AIM Express. The receive message will be send like SMS that would charge that plan. So, I tried real AIM application for Palm. Unfortunately, it’s not work on advanced mobile phone. But good news, thank to my friend, he found an application called Toccer. It’s still beta. So far as I test, it does remind me of i705 how thing work. The only one bug, I found so far, it shaking forever like crazy when I turned away message mode and sleep mode. So, I cannot leave like that. I looking forward on complete version of Toccer. Currently, it’s .9v. I hear that VeriChat is far better, but it charge one time a year. It does much better like AIM on computer. It sound great!

Feature on Treo what I know so far…

• Bluetooth, it’s bit difficult, unlike Nokia’s, I manage to get it work with my laptop for exchange picture and modem network.
• Digital Camera 1.3 megapixel look very good for mobile I ever seen. Oh, the video mode able to make auto-focus while taping em during light and dark. That’s impressive compare to what my digital camera (Canon SD300) can’t do.
• QWERTY seem does improve much than previous Treo model. It take few hours of curve learner and I getting comfortable to typing.
• Display is very brightness and allow me to control from low to high.
• Battery is average 1 to 2 days, depend how often I use. Good thing, it’s replaceable battery and it include two different charger: USB power to laptop and outlet without two split unlike Tungsten which is awful.
• The signaler under Sprint is always on, no dropping network so far. It’s easy to turn signaler off and use it during offline. Love it!
• HotSync work great with Mac OS, it’s bitter faster than before.
• Navigator is great.
• Keyguard is easy!

Overall, I thought how great Treo 700p can handle that much I like. Several thing, i would need to get know more when I’m out of city and other way to get thing work. Oh yeah, the size is bitter fair when i put it in my pocket. It’s not too bad but I would need an accessories that carry for me. If that fit well for my need.
