Tethered Modem (3.75)
The Treo Pro can act as a tethered modem for your computer via Bluetooth but not USB out of the box. Setting it up via Bluetooth is a piece of cake - you simply need to pair the Treo Pro with your computer and then use the Internet Sharing application to manage the connection. Note that having a tethering data plan with your carrier may be required, or else you could incur some serious data usage charges by doing this.
The Internet Sharing application
GPS (6.50)
The Treo Pro has a GPS receiver and comes with the Google Maps application installed. While this application does not provide voiced turn-by-turn directions, it's easy to search for specific locations and businesses and get step-by-step on-screen directions. Third-party navigation applications are available for the Treo Pro, so all is not lost if you have your heart set on this functionality.
Google Maps
PTT (0.0)
The Treo Pro does not have push-to-talk.
