u sure? one of my co-worker enable to put windows mobile 5.0 on his treo 650

It is not possible. Your friend probably had a launcher installed that resembled WM, or else he had a 700w & lied to you, lol...

what's a launcher? lol, sorry if this is a stupid question

Posted by: Kabuk1

A launcher is the GUI, or graphical interface of your phone. The built in Palm launcher is what you see in your home screen. I use ZLauncher, but there are other like Facer, Launcher X, Initiate, etc.

This thread makes me think of something- its not possible to put windows on a Treo, but it IS possible to put Linux on one! Go to grack.com & look under the visuals section to see for yourselves.

You Sure it was the 650, and not the 700w? I know there are differences, but they don't look that different. The main reason I'm also wary of whether it was the 700w but not the 650 is because I don't believe microsoft has sold the windows mobile 5 platform on a cd or download ... I could be wrong, but I don't really remember many if any pdas even being given an upgrade from a previous windows mobile to new one ... so. I wouldn't even know how he got ahold of a windows mobile in order to do such a thing.
