I have been trying to use my Treo as an mp3 player now that my iPod’s battery has started to die. I found an open-source program called iTunes Agent lets me synch directly with iTunes so I don’t have to manually move files around every time. It should work with almost any mp3 player. Here’s how I set it up:
- Buy a big SD memory card for your Treo. (I got a 1GB at Sears for around $60).
- Put the memory card in your phone to format it with the default Palm stuff.
- Download and install the Microsoft .NET Framework Version 2.0. (20MB)
- Download and install iTunes Agent.
- Right click on the iTunes Agent system tray icon and go to “Preferences”.
- Click “New” and Fill in Name: “Treo”, Synch. pattern: “Flat”, Music folder: [leave blank], Rec. pattern: “D:PALM”
- Save it, and pop the SD Card into your computer.
- Open iTunes and put songs in the playlist called “Treo”.
- Right click on the iTunes Agent system tray icon and select “Synchronize Device”.
