Just because a company makes two products doesn't mean that they were built for each other in mind. Basically your Palm needs some sw to bridge the gap.

check out www.handango.com and www.palmgear.com for some sw that will suite your needs.

see thet hign with exbox is, is that it doesnt let you beam from your memory card. now for some reason the sony clie doesnt let you save anything on its own hard drive unless its an application, so you are forced to save on a memory card... then with other beam software that i have tried... when i try to beam from the memory card it makes it a difernt type of file. like with one.. i tried beaming it to my t300 , a theme file, and it gave it some sort of .pbc extension... and so i got an error sayin it couldnt get connected by infrared... the only reason why i know this happened was because the program converted it into sum sort of different file.. so the challenge is finding a palm beam softawre that beam files from an external memory card and that will not rename a file..... sigh

I see. If you have a Clie and a memory stick, put the Clie on the cradle then run MSImport on the Clie and the memory stick will be shown as a removable drive. Make a new folder \T68i and copy all your *thm, *.gif, *.imy, *.emy, *.tpl files there. When its done, disconnect then fire up IR on the phone and run Filez (or whatever file manager you have) and look for the \T68i folder, select all, then beam. You now have all themes, wallpapers, screensaver, ringtones, and even MMS templates on your phone.

This is how I do it and it works perfectly. Hope this helps.
