I don't have a DIA Palm, but I think it's cool that you're working on this and I love using what you've done so far!

Yep, love the direction this is taking too, thanks Mark.
Now gotta start saving my pennies coz I really need the extra screen space option in landscape mode to read my song titles.
Cheers, Sim

What's a DIA?
I suppose my PalmOne Zire72 has it as well, whatever it is.

Do we only need the new palm binary, or a whole replacement Empire as well?

Quote: Supports new 5-way navigators on T3/T5/Treo 6x0, supports portrait and landscape mode on Palms with Dynamic Input Areas (T3/T5/Zodiac)
DIA is where it has a rectangular screen instead of the square one in older Palms. The bit at the bottom where you used to have the input area is now just part of the normal touchscreen. You can show and hide the input area to get extra screen estate. The Zire 72 doesn't have this feature.

Oh. Nice app by the way.
But I am rapidly getting tired of the little pop-up at the end that repeatedly asks me if I want to waste my battery power for no good reason.
Your option to receive beamed data is turned off. Do you want to turn it on now?
Any chance of getting rid of that, or at least having it remember that I don't want to waste batteries?
Thanks

Just the Palm binary, the only difference is the dynamic input area support.

I can't see a solution to this one. This is a Palm internal message that will pop up when you use the IrDA functions but do not have Beam Receive turned on. The only way to get rid of it (as far as I can see right now) is to turn Beam Receive on.

Can your app turn it on before PalmOS checks and then turn it back off after it's no longer checking?

I use the Exchange Manager APIs to create an OBEX object and beam it via IrDA to the Empeg, and I think when I do a send, this popup is generated then. It's not something that I can turn on or off, because it's built into the API. I could write my own IrDA code that accesses the hardware directly and bypass the Exchange Manager APIs, but it would be a PITA.
Edit: I see what you mean now, turn on Beam Receive before sending, then turn it off after.. I will look into this. (good idea!)

for that beam off problem, you have to install a hack http://yahm.palmoid.com/hack is on the page its called nobeamdialog.prc or something like it i'm assuming you have an os5 palm. i'm sure there is an equivalent for other versions.

Yeah, it's OS5, in all it's glory! Today I discovered mapopolis, and its nice semi-integration with cachemate for my Zire72. Wow!Okay, so.. who out there has experience with MS S&T for PalmOS? Any Good? Any compelling reason for me *not* to lay out the (tiny) bucks for mapopolis after the 9-day free trial expiry? Cheers

This is probably a really, incredibly stupid question but I'm not quite ready to install this yet and want to learn a bit more about it before I decide if I like it or not.
The playlists that are sent to the empeg, they are just temporary correct? They aren't saved into the Playlists menu option?
As to the other question, if I'm in an uploaded playlist and power the car off, will that same playlist come back up when I turn the car back on, or will it be lost?

So, which is it? The uploaded playlist will come up, or it will be lost?

It will survive power cycles.

No, it works just like if you used the remote to search and insert/append/replace songs, or if you did the same thing in the Playlists menu with just individual tracks. The only thing that gets modified is the current running playlist.
Quote: As to the other question, if I'm in an uploaded playlist and power the car off, will that same playlist come back up when I turn the car back on, or will it be lost?
The tracks are inserted/appended/enqueued/replaced into the current running playlist, so power cycles will not affect it. It is just like if you inserted one track into the current playlist with the menus/remote.
