Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
From putzing around with a friend's Treo it seems that voice-activated dialing isn't native to the software. From googling, the major hit for "Voice Dialing for Treo" doesn't work with Bluetooth earpieces, which is precisely what he wants it for.
Do any Treo users here have a solution in place?

I don't have one, nor do I remember seeing one. As much as I adore my Treo, the OS is extremely long in the tooth, so it may just not be a real option.

Hey. New board.
What ND said re: the Treo.
My MBP order can no longer be cancelled! The internets assure me this means it will probably ship tomorrow YAY.

What does Intel Centrino x86 family 6 Model 13 mean in English? I mean, what's the short form of that processor? Pentium 6, what?
Thanks for the Treo information. I am sad that it's impossible, and redoubled in my insistence on avoiding that convergence. I'm too headspinny about WinCE to consider that OS on a PDA phone.

"The fact that we live at the bottom of a deep gravity well, on the surface of a gas covered planet going around a nuclear fireball 90 million miles away and think this to be normal is obviously some indication of how skewed our perspective tends to be."
What does Intel Centrino x86 family 6 Model 13 mean in English? I mean, what's the short form of that processor? Pentium 6, what?
Various sources:
Looks like family 6, model 13 features the "Dothan" variant of the Pentium-M processor.
(Edited because I really do know how to spell "processor")

'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"
I know how to do AutoFilter in Excel, which is good when I want to look at a single value in a spreadsheet list. But what I want is a list of unique values (names of counties) that I can print out! I can copy it down by hand if I click on the filter widget, which is clumsy and slow, and also, since I'm reviewing who gets what Texas counties, I can have a list of 50 or more to copy out by hand.
Is there a better way? I tried typing "find unique values in a column" in the Excel Help, but all it did is tell me about AutoFilter, which I pretty much know about already. I don't need to go into Criteria, since that looks like something you use to FIND things, not get a handy list of the values you want to FIND.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
So you have a whole bunch of county 'A', a whole bunch of county 'C', etc. and you just want a list of 'A', 'C', etc?
If that's it, sort the counties. Then select the counties, along with the header for the counties and go to Data / Subtotal, and then select "at each change in county" then click OK. Then collaps all the sections (click on the '-').
I think there must be a better way, as this is designed for subtotals, but it might get you what you want.
eta: This is very easy in a database such as Access.
