Palm has just released an update for Treo 755p smartphones on Verizon.
No specific improvements are mentioned, but Palm says it “improves the phone application, stability and device usability”. Sounds good to us!
The firmware update will take a good part of an hour. Once it’s complete, follow steps 5-7 of my “grade-and-pave” article to ensure the fastest and most-stable Palm OS experience possible.
We just finished a substantial update to Kinoma Media Guide, designed to make it an even better resource for finding and playing the best mobile-ready media.
In some cases we’ve reorganized some categories to make more sense going forward. This post is the key to easily finding your favorites.
First, the 10,000-foot view:
And now, a couple tips for getting around:
As usual, this update is free and automatic for all Kinoma Player customers.
Remember that we make this guide for you. If you have favorite content that you can’t find in the guide, let us know by emailing us your feedback and suggestions at content@ plus our domain name.
If you haven’t stopped by kinoma.com in a while, now is a great time to check it out.
(When you’re ready to come back here, just click the convenient Blog link you’ll find at the top of every page.)
The goal of the site redesign was to make it as beautifully-functional as our software. We hope you’ll agree that it’s easier than ever to find information and get help.
And that mysterious new tab on the front page? You can be the first to know about that by doing one (or both!) of these:
By tomorrow, Kinoma Notes will share the site design as well. Our forum will follow a bit later this year.
We’d love to know what you think! If you have thoughts on the new site, please let us know at content@kinoma.com.
Last October, I let you in on a little secret — how to get a little-known upgrade discount to Kinoma Player 4 EX by purchasing an upgrade from the Kinoma Media Embedded (KME) that comes with your Centro or Treo.
As of midnight this morning, that discount is gone. Expired. Kaput.
But…if you know friends and family that need Kinoma Player, or if you want to get another copy yourself, here’s how to get Kinoma Player for only $14.95 price until 7/1/2008:
Just go to http://go.kinoma.com/?LastChance with your PC or Mac.
Kinoma Player 4 EX is a great value even at it’s normal price of $24.95, and we have no plans to offer such a huge discount again anytime soon. If you’ve been thinking about buying Kinoma Player, now’s the time.
(Please feel free to send or post the special URL above wherever you like. Note that you don’t need to have a Centro or Treo with KME to take advantage of it.)
Nine months after Sprint introduced the Centro, Verizon now has a beautiful cobalt-blue Centro of its very own.
Palm has already sold more than a million Centro smartphones, and it’s undoubtedly going to be a big hit on Verizon as well.
Verizon’s selling the Centro for $99 with a new, two-year contract and a $70 mail-in rebate. It’s the first Palm device to work with Verizon’s $30-per-month smartphone data plan.
We have lots of customers who love Kinoma Player 4 EX on their Centro, so you can upgrade your phone in confidence.
When you get your new phone, use this page to get a fresh installer. Kinoma Player will transfer your activation to your new phone automatically.
