Quick question

Can I use my laptop to view/adjust settings with the Rtek?
I dont see why I wouldnt be able to and thought that it would be pretty retarded if i cant, seeing as the Rtek 2.x has a built in serial port which all laptops have.

no you cant. unless you can find a palm emulator, but then you still have to deal with the tiny screen and scrolling to see everything.

I wish they would make a windows version, but i dont think its as easy as you think. Sure all the serial commands would be the same, but they would have to rewrite the whole GUI, which looks to be the bulk of the application

A new phone? Palm makes more that phones. You can get a Palm PDA for pennies off ebay.

$4.05 with 2 hours left.

That had to be the most retarded statement I ever heard.

Don't be pissed off because something is not designed to your standards.

Not only that...you have no idea what your talking about. WTF did u get phone from?
