Palm Treo 650 Update (Good News)
Carkit Update for Treo 650
News Friday, December 24, 2004
Special thanks to mytreo.net full member Argelius for informing us of this story.
palmOne, Inc., the company behind the Treo 600 and 650 smartphones, has released a carkit update that enables the Treo 650 to work with more bluetooth products that come built-in to many popular automobiles. This is a welcome response to difficulties many users experienced with car kits around the time the 650 was first released.
Features
Your Treo 650 comes equipped with Bluetooth® wireless technology. If your car is equipped with Bluetooth technology also, you can manage your calls in the car in a handsfree manner with Treo 650. Install the update provided here on your Treo 650 to improve the interoperability with the supported carkits. In fact, if you have any Bluetooth car kit - factory, dealer or self installed - we recommend that you install this update for best results with Treo 650.
After installing the update, you can enjoy the convenience of handsfree calling from your car:
- Observe the carrier name and signal strength in the car kit*.
- Incoming calls will ring in the car. In some car kits*, you can also see the caller ID for the incoming call.
- Answer or reject the incoming call with the car kit. Whether you answer the call from the car kit or Treo 650, the call audio is automatically transferred to the car.
- Transfer your Treo 650 Speed Dials to the car kit phone book*. To learn how to assign speed dials, refer to your Treo 650 documentation.
- View the call log of last dialed, missed or received calls in the car kit*.
- Initiate outgoing calls from the car by dialing the number from the car kit phone book, or from the list of missed, received or previously placed calls*.
- The call audio is automatically transferred to the car.
- Swap calls to manage multiple calls*.
* Car kits vary in the list of supported handsfree calling features. Please check the car kit documentation to learn more about your car kit and its user interface.
List of Supported Carkits
- MobileEase car kit from Peiker Acoustics, used in Ford, Lincoln and Mercury cars
- HandsFreeLink TM car kit from Johnson Controls Inc. (JCI) used in Honda and Acura cars

Appendix...
Yes, it seems fixed now. PalmOne did the great job so far in responding this issue.
Some ppl have tried this at their 3G TL's HFL, and it seems to work wonderfully.

Finally, i got the phone and TL to work...somewhat. I can make and receive calls, but when I tell the car to dial a number, it can't find the phone. Any thoughts?
