New here & Hoping to get some help! I've got a m5 & have found unlike the palms I've had,There is No Dialer? I've always used the Palms to dial My V551 phone via Bluetooth. I've called Garmin & they suggested 3rd party software.I used Vito Dialer & had to Hard re-set the unit. Any Ideas or Software that is known?One of the only features I really use(besides the GPS).
I'll post another ? later one at a time! Thank's Tug :cool:

Is there "Dial via Bluetooth" option when you hold down on a contact in your contacts list?

Ok, I tried & That will send the contact to the phone,insert the name into contact.I then have to look up the contact in the phone & Dial. Its a long way around the block to do this ,but its another way.Don't really want to add/save some contacts to the phone. The "Other" one actually dialed right from the device when you hit the name. It also gave you the option to dial from a keypad(large). I can navigate from the contact list(kinda). Just seems like this would have been an easy program & feature to add(dialer).I'm really trying to keep this pkt'pc instead of going back to palm os.I know more software will eventually come out.
I've learned quite a bit from this forum & will be getting wireless soon.
Thanks! Any software that will Dial as I want out yet? Makes this bluetooth really handsfree especially w/ handsfree car phone. Tug

I have no idea if it will work with your unit, so exercise proper precaution. You can also do a search there for dialer, there are several commercial products that provide trial version.

AnswerDude,It didn't work either ?? I've tried 4+ of em'. As their loaded up it says they may not work properly because of the earlier OS version .I'll just keep trying.I was told that this M5 would dial because of the Bluetooth as long as I had a bluetooth phone. Got used to it ,Now I'm ---- well Someone will comeout with it! Thanks for Your help.
I've installed Informant , It has a dial program but times out?Just another e-mail!
Thanks for the site & Help!
