Ok,
With some help from a few folks, I was able to get Whereigo working on my Palm Treo 800w!
For those of you who want to play this too, here is what you do...
- Download the cab (http://www.wherigo.com/).
- Open up the program (you might get a GPS error, ignore it)
- Immediately click on menu->settings
- unselect "autodetect gps"
- choose com1
- click ok
- You will be given an error about how you must configure the speed. click ok and press down (you can't really see the speed drop down, doing this just selects a random value).
- click ok. You might get an error... ignore it.
- Exit wherigo
- dock your treo and pull the file wigconfig.config file in you Treo's \Program Files\Groundspeak\Wherigo\Player folder, and place it on your computer somewhere (desktop, temp folder, wherever)
- Open up this file on your computer with notepad and make the following changes (or confirm these settings... the most important is the CommPort... ignore all other lines):
<add key="AutoDetectGps" value="False" />
<add key="BaudRate" value="4800" />
<add key="CommPort" value="GPD1:" />
- Save it and copy it back to your Treo, overwriting the origional file.
- Untether from your PC.
- Start up whereigo.
You should be good to go. It might take a minute to aquire a GPS signal, but it should work.
Hope this helps
