PFB: PalmFileBrowser lets you manage your files on the Treo and the SD card directly from your Windows PC.
It has two major advantages over Softick CardExportII: it is freeware, and it let's you access files on the Treo itself. The disadvantage is that it requires an application on the PC. For installation instructions, please check Help.htm in the ZIP file or see the "detailed description" below.
NOTE: The prc download is the extracted handheld client filepc2pda only. You
must download and extract the zip to your desktop computer in order to transfer files.

rianvanu: Buen programa, quizás uno de los imperdibles de cualquier PDA.
pstrons: Works great on my 700p! Although, I did have to use the settings in a previous comment, USBI and 115200. But it's FREE!!!!
TPGolfer: It works and a great alternative to Card Export II (although I love those guys at Softick for their work on SAG!). It seems to be quite slow transferring files so I'll see how useful it is over time.
dbareis: For me it was no good as the highest COM port it allows is COM8 and mine start at COM9.
jkrj524: Easy to use. Thank you!
PalmTxer: KickAss for the TX too!!
whathome: worked great
RupertBear: Works well on my 650. Thaks
adamssc: "could not open the com port!" SOLVED
Works on Treo 600 IF:-
You set the desktop to USBI and 115200.
You set the Treo to 115200 (NOT USB).
Works well, but the author has been out of touch since 2003!
wreibeling: Fantastic!! Use it all the time for the past year+ and no hassles at all. Does not interfere with regular hotsync operation.

Detailed Description
The PFB package consists of 3 required components:
- filepc2pda.prc: The Palm application which has to be installed on your Treo via Hotsync, or download.
- sertransplg.dll: A Windows driver which must reside in the same directory as PFB.EXE (or optionally in a directory in your Windows PATH)
- PFB.exe: The Windows application itself
Installation
- Downloaded the ZIP archive and extracted all components in some directory on your PC. You should see the following files:
- filepc2pda.prc
- Help.htm
- LICENCE.TXT
- PFB.exe
- ReadMe.txt
- sertransplg.dll
- Using HotSync or whatever means you typically use, transfer filepc2pda.prc to the Treo. Make sure hotsync.exe is no longer running after the transfer, but keep the Treo and the PC connected via cable or cradle.
- On the PC side, invoke PFB.EXE (typically represented by a small magnifying glass icon).
- In the dialog that appears, select:
- Port: USB (Palm)
- Speed: 115200
- On the Treo, invoke filepc2pda.prc if it's not already running. Select:
and hit the connect button.
- If all goes well, you will see several messages including "connect", "ready" and "1 volume found".
You are now ready to transfer files between your Treo and your PC. When you're done, select "Disconnect" on both machines. Next time you want to transfer files, simply invoke PFB.EXE and filepc2pda.prc again (you won't have to change the settings).
