Last-Minute Tips

We all know how it goes. You have weeks to plan something, but you wait until the last minute. It happens to the best of us. Your Treo™ Fiesta House Party is in four days, and in case you haven’t finished preparing for your bash, here are some quick and easy tips. First, make sure all of your guests have RSVP’d. If they haven’t, send them a reminder here. As a matter of fact, you might want to send your guests a reminder that the party is coming up anyway. And, if they offer to bring a dish, take them up on it. Next, you’ll want to make sure you’ve chosen the menu for the party.

Notes to Self

I don’t often forget stuff, but sometimes things slip my mind. For example, I’ll leave the chicken in the oven too long or I’ll forget to TiVo “Battlestar Galactica.” Thankfully, my smartphone makes sure that never happens anymore thanks to its handy voice memos! This feature is definitely helping out while I plan my Treo™ Fiesta House Party.

If you have a PalmOS device, just go to Applications, select Voice Memo, press and hold the Side button while you record. After you’re done, just release the Side button. You can also enter a title for your memo

Let’s Make This Party Caliente

Hey there, I’m Keith and I'm here to make sure your Treo Fiesta House Party is caliente! Nobody likes a lame party. On May 5th, you want your guests to have the times of their lives. So go nuts! Cinco de Mayo is all about celebrating Mexican heritage, and celebrating in general so break out the nachos and nine-layer dip, make a salsa-errific mix tape, and whip up some strong margaritas. You don’t want your guests to be bored. If your party is cool enough, I might even show up and do the “robot.”  Are you psyched yet? Prove it. Post me a “comment” below describing what Cinco de Mayo means to you. Peace

Make a Party Mixtape

Hey people… My Treo Fiesta House Party is going to be the bomb. My boyfriend just hired a mariachi band to play in our living room. How crazy is that? I’m totally psyched. My friend Tara is so jealous because her Cinco de Mayo party is going to be so lame. She’s been calling me, and asking if she could come to my party with her friends, and I was like “as if”, but finally, I caved in because no one should miss out on all the Treo fun. How are your parties coming along?  I doubt you guys are having a mariachi band, but I’m guessing you’re going to have some sweet tunes. Are you scrolling through the playlist on your

Put a Face to the Names and Numbers

If you’re like me, you’re like that talking robot from that beloved 1980s classic “Short Circuit": you need more “input.” Thankfully, I’m constantly learning new things about my smartphone. Like did you know you can set up photo caller ID? How cool is that? Every time my friend Chuck calls me, I can see a picture of him wearing a sombrero. He’s obviously psyched for Cinco de Mayo! It’s easy: just enter a name or phone number in the Contacts list, and select the entry you want to open. Click Edit (if you have Windows Mobile, you may need to press Menu

My Smartphone Is a Wonderland

Hi, Jake here. Throughout your online experience, I’ll be offering you tips and advice – free of charge. Not to brag or anything, but I’m kind of a party animal so you’re in good hands. From time to time, my chess club pals and I get together for charades and reruns of “Murder She Wrote.”

Most of the times, however, we stay in and tinker with our Treo smartphones. There’s just so many things you can do with it. I never miss the latest on Discovery Mobile thanks to my MobiTV® subscription, which offers over 30 channels of live TV on my phone. And
