Skiing with the Treo


Last Updated Mon Feb 14, 2005 - 6:00 PM EST - By James Hromadka

Overview

As technology integrates into our lives more and more, we tend to look for ways to use it everywhere. The Treo is one of the things that I am loathe to leave behind when out and about because there is always something to add to my calendar or a new contact to add.

I spent last winter working on a project in Canada and fell in love with snow skiing. I love going to different resorts, and thanks to the Treo I have on my calendar the date and location of every place I have gone skiing. When I started planning a ski trip to Breckenridge, Colorado, I decided to take along the Treo and a few other items and see how technology could enrich the skiing experience. Over the next few pages, you will read about the products that were used on the slopes or for other activities while traveling.

Here is what I used on the trip:

PalmOne Treo 650
NormSoft Pocket Tunes Deluxe for MP3 songs
Apple iPod shuffle
180°s Tec Fleece Ear Warmer w/ JVC headphones
Seidio 2-in-1 Retractable Headset Adapter
Seidio 3-in-1 Travel Kit
Seidio Emergency Power Charger
Seidio Emergency Power Charger
Seidio iSound FM broadcaster

This article will give a taste of the experiences I had with the products. I will have full reviews of the products in the coming weeks.
