Wrong. Works for me. I have a text entry script I've written to enter "username[tab]password[enter]" and I'm right back in.

Now, all the other complaints are the result of a limitation with the Palm OS. Do you realize that to have Clicker or Address Book talk to your Treo, and for you to STILL HAVE CONTROL OF YOUR TREO, background processes must be written, and the Palm OS as it currently stands....

A. Is really not made to handle that
B. Doesn't have the resources

Wait for Cobalt. I'd bet vital parts of my anatomy you will NEVER see palmOne add the necessary background processes and incoming bluetooth profiles (the two required pieces) to the Treo 650.
