Windows 7 X64 and Palm Treo 680

[digitalriverrat]

I just bought a Palm Treo 680. I have a Windows 7 64 bit laptop. I need something that will allow full sync/transfer. I want to be able to send photos and music files to the phone from my computer, but the Palm Desktop doesn't support it with USB, only WiFi and IR.

why is this under the add a new phone section? you arent adding a new phone here so shouldnt belong here.... and i havent seen one that is capable with 7 yet for the plamos interface... im sure one will be made but with their new webos out there they are gonna to make for that first than tyhe older models if they do....

there's no other way unless you create a dual boot and install windows xp.The driver was discounted for that model. and palm is suggesting that you use the memory card method.or thru bluetooth sync see details here

I tried it under Virtual PC a few times, but it didn't want to work. So I splurged and bought a $3.00 USB Bluetooth 2.0 dongle and it works great. Sorry it took so long getting back to everybody, but I completely forgot I had posted here. Now I'm looking for some cool games.

It works flawlessy with the Bluetooth dongle, btw.
