Can My 8125 Interact With My Co-Worker's "Palm OS"?

I'm the only one at work with the Windows OS, everyone else has the Palm OS. They all beam their stuff back and forth to eachother, which would be nice, instead of having to manually enter everything from them. Is there a hack or a way that I can get my 8125 to recognize their Palm OS when they're beaming to me and vice versa?

by stuff do you mean documents and business cards, they should exchange fine, you may need to do a conversion depends on what format they use. If you mean games and programs, It's not gonna happen.

most notabley, on my 8125 I use Excel has a spreadhseet, but on everyone else's they use quicksheet....and all programs aside, I thought that if I didn't have the "Palm OS" I couldn't beam stuff back and forth? Is that the case? Is it just certain things can and certain things can't? How exactly does it work?

I run a couple of Palm programs on my 8125 using a program called StyleTap. It's not free, but you trial it and see if it works for you.
