Treo 700w Accessories

[Darius Wey]

You have a new Treo 700w in your hands. It's gorgeous, but wait, it feels naked. So, off you go looking for accessories.<br /><br /><img src="http://www.pocketpcthoughts.com/images/web/2003/wey-20060105-PalmTreo700w.jpg" /><br /><br />Being only a couple of days old, there aren't a huge number of accessories available. Nevertheless, here's something to get you started.<br />• <a href="http://web.palm.com/products/accessories/treo700w_accessories.jhtml">Palm</a> - Over 25 accessories currently available (including, but not limited to, screen protectors, headsets, and cases).<br />• <a href="http://www.pielframa.com/menu_palm_treo_700w.htm">Piel Frama</a> - A set of flip-style cowhide, crocodile and ostrich cases for the Treo 700w. They're available in a number of colours and support removable belt clips.<br /><br />If you know of any other accessories designed specifically for the Treo 700w, feel free to let others know by posting in this thread.

The Palm Screen Protectors available at the Treo Store on plam.com are the worst I've ever experienced. First, you must cut them to size, then it nearly impossibel to get a good, smooth, bubble-free installation and they don't make for a very good writing surface. I wasted 20 bucks on thses. I'd recommned pocketpctechs.com WriteShields - I've ordered the ones for the Treo 650, as they should be the same size. For now, I took one of my unused WriteShields for another device and cut it to size (but I'll never get the edges perfectly straight). This will do for me until I get the right size on Monday.

...I took one of my unused WriteShields for another device and cut it to size (but I'll never get the edges perfectly straight). This will do for me until I get the right size on Monday.

The WriteSHIELDs are my favourite. I cut a 3.5" AG down to 2.8" for my E-TEN M600. I've found the X-acto paper cutters / knives (or similar no-name brand) are the best instruments for cutting it down to size. You'll also want to cut it from the back-side so you don't risk having any deep scratch marks on the writing surface of the screen protector.

There also appears to be a large assortment of accessories that have been tested on the 700w at http://store.treocentral.com/

Just select Treo 700w as your device in the upper left side.

Boxwave has a whole list of accessories including their screen protectors and PPCTechs is working on theirs too. I found that Lion Battery made by Mugen Power 2200mAh BATTERY works as well.

FWIW, Seidio has a 2200mAh battery available for $29.99.

Thanks for the heads up on the battery I hadn't order it yet so now I will pop over to Seidio. :D

Now all Palm has to do is perform yet two more feats of intelligence and offer a GSM version of this phone.

...And WiFi !!! Why don't they ever include WiFi on these Treos???

Arkon now has a Docking PDA Mount for the Treo 650 and 700w.
