I'm using a Treo 600 with Fido. What settings are you referring to? Are you
referring to the GPRS settings?

I have a treo 650 and works like a charm.

Except in phone mode it says Fido then switches to roaming.

Does this happen on your Treo 600?

My unlocked Treo 600 keeps saying "Roaming" but it doesn't say Fido, it says
"Rogers AT&T Wireless". It has said "Rogers AT&T Wireless" with my Fido SIM
inside for almost 6 months (it started when Rogers was integrating the Fido
network with their own network). The only thing is sometimes (very rarely
but still noticeable), I have to reset my Treo 600 in order to get the GPRS
to work properly. It will say that it is connected to the GPRS network but
when trying to access my Gmail, it would time out. A reset fixes this
problem. I read on many forums including HowardForum that PalmOS units don't
handle network connections that well so I don't think much about it.
