Help!

I am ready to do my 2-year trade-in on my Verizon phone. The Treo would be great in that I could pitch my PocketPC and take care of both phone and PDA functions in one package. But my present phone pairs reliably, and transfers its phone book flawlessly, and I can't live without those features.

Anyone been successful in using the Treo 700w with the e60?

i HAVE SORT OF... THIS was only after installing the updater which is now taken down off the website

http://www.palm.com/us/support/downloads/t...er/verizon.html

The only issue I have is that my phone book isnt transferring over to the idrive. What I have been able to get to transfer is my picture speedial... go figure. so now that I tried to troubleshoot and remove the picture speedial off of my "today screen" now I have no contacts in the idrive at all nor can I get any of my main contacts to sync w/the car

I paired my Treo 700 (Verizon) and my contacts are in I-drive. This was just two days ago so not much experience if it is all working. However, today I received a call from a local number which should have been marked as Private (my wife called from office), and the incoming Caller ID was a totally different number from an area code in MN. I don't know what that was about but will report back any other issues.

I called my dealer parts guy, and he could not find a plugin adaptor for Treo 700. Is there any knowledge if BMW will be supplying this part?

Doh! I just noticed that only my speed dials transferred to iDrive (picture and number).

how many contacts? I have only gotten 7 contacts(speed dial) to transfer. I have more than 7 speed dial numbers set up. I thought the treo was going to be beter than the xv6700, as far as the e60 goes, I guess not.

Just got the 700p. Same problem in that only speed dial numbers are showing. Has anyone found a solution to this?
