• After witnessing the continued decrease of involvement in the SpotterNetwork staff in serving SN members with troubleshooting issues recently, I have unilaterally decided to terminate the relationship between SpotterNetwork's support and Stormtrack. I have witnessed multiple users unable to receive support weeks after initiating help threads on the forum. I find this lack of response from SpotterNetwork officials disappointing and a failure to hold up their end of the agreement that was made years ago, before I took over management of this site. In my opinion, having Stormtrack users sit and wait for so long to receive help on SpotterNetwork issues on the Stormtrack forums reflects poorly not only on SpotterNetwork, but on Stormtrack and (by association) me as well. Since the issue has not been satisfactorily addressed, I no longer wish for the Stormtrack forum to be associated with SpotterNetwork.

    I apologize to those who continue to have issues with the service and continue to see their issues left unaddressed. Please understand that the connection between ST and SN was put in place long before I had any say over it. But now that I am the "captain of this ship," it is within my right (nay, duty) to make adjustments as I see necessary. Ending this relationship is such an adjustment.

    For those who continue to need help, I recommend navigating a web browswer to SpotterNetwork's About page, and seeking the individuals listed on that page for all further inquiries about SpotterNetwork.

    From this moment forward, the SpotterNetwork sub-forum has been hidden/deleted and there will be no assurance that any SpotterNetwork issues brought up in any of Stormtrack's other sub-forums will be addressed. Do not rely on Stormtrack for help with SpotterNetwork issues.

    Sincerely, Jeff D.

I am sure alot of the younger guys know what is out there and available. I just got a trea 650 cell phone. I did not know stuff like this existed on the planet. This thing is incredible, I see huge benefits for chasing with it. If you have not looked at one of these it is worth a peek. It has internet access to any web site, it is a wireless high speed pc card, so you can either with a usb cable or with blue tooth plug your laptop right in and connect. The phone is expensive, but it does take the place of about 3 or 4 items. Web acces, pc card, music and video player and a camera for low res quick pics. Oh forgot- a phone.
 
I used a Treo 650 on vacation this summer. I loved it and almost bought one, but I just can't justify the monthly charges at this time. The price of the 650 is slowly dropping though. Its great for the internet, but it works best with sites designed for mobile devices. One of the best parts of the 650 is that it is not much bigger than a normal cell phone. Most handheld devices are an odd shape and uncomfortable to talk on without an ear piece, not the 650.

My biggest complaint is that the 650 needs wifi. It would make so much since if they could build that in. I'd pass up the camera for wifi any day.

I never knew you could plug into a laptop via USB and connect to the internet.
