* WMA Lossless and WMA Professional are not currently supported.  WMA playback requires the Deluxe version and is not available in the trial.

** Music stores that we have tested include: Napster, Real Rhapsody, Yahoo! Music Engine.  Pocket Tunes supports both subscription and purchased content.

*** Some applications may have excessive CPU or storage requirements and may cause music playback to skip when performing certain operations.  We go to great lengths to minimize this as much as possible.  Devices with slow processors or hard disks are especially susceptible due to hardware restrictions.

Requirements

Important note about Windows Media Player 11 beta: We are aware of several problems with Windows Media Player 11 beta that causes synchronization with Pocket Tunes to work incorrectly in many cases. We ask that all customers refrain from updating to Windows Media Player 11 until we have added it to our compatibility statement.

Required:

  • PalmOS 5.2 or later (or Tungsten T).
  • For online music store support, the following devices are supported: Palm Treo 600, 650, 680, 700p, Zire 31, 71, 72, Tungsten T, T2, T3, T5, C, E, E2, T|X, or LifeDrive.
  • For all other music playback, any of the following devices are supported: PalmOne Treo 600, Treo 650, Treo 680, Treo 700p, Zire 31, 71, 72, Tungsten T, T2, T3, T5, C, E, E2, T|X, LifeDrive, or Garmin iQue 3600.  StyleTap® Platform (v0.9.126 or greater) supported on the Palm Treo 700w smartphone. 
  • 820KB memory available on Palm for Pocket Tunes.  (The following devices require an additional 625KB of storage space when running Pocket Tunes: Tungsten T, T2, T3, C, E, Treo 600, and Garmin iQue 3600.)
  • Microsoft Windows XP and Windows Media Player 10 are required for online music store support.
Recommended:

  • 1,100KB memory on Palm handheld (for skins and plugins).
  • A memory expansion card (256MB or larger recommended).
  • Wireless Internet connection and service (for streaming audio).
  • Microsoft Windows XP.
  • Windows Media Player 10.
  • Pocket Tunes may work on other PalmOS 5 devices, but they have not been fully tested, and we cannot answer customer support questions about these devices. Note that Sony handhelds are no longer supported due to Sony's decision (nearly 2 years ago) to discontinue its CLIE line of PDAs along with their developer support services.
