Getting Around Quickly
This Quick Start Guide is meant to be just that – a section that can help you jump right in
and find information in this book, as well as learn the basics of how to get around and
enjoy your DROID right away.
We’ll start with the nuts and bolts in our “Learning Your Way Around” section, which
covers what all the keys, buttons, switches, and symbols mean and do on your DROID.
In this section, you’ll see some handy features such as multitasking and adding and
removing widgets. You’ll also learn how to interact with the menus, submenus, and set
switches – tasks that are required in almost every application on your DROID. You’ll also
find out how to read your connectivity status and what to do when you travel on an
airplane.
TIP: Check out Chapter 2: “Typing, Voice, Copy, and Search” for great typing tips and other
helpful things.
In the “Touch Screen Basics” section, we will help you learn how to touch, swipe, flick,
zoom, and more.
Later, in the “App Reference Tables,” section, we’ve organized the app icons into general
categories, so you can quickly browse through the icons and jump to a section in the book
to learn more about the app a particular icon represents. This guide also includes several
handy tables designed to help you get up and running with your DROID quickly:
Getting Started (Table 2)
Stay Organized (Table 3)
Be Entertained (Table 4)
Stay Informed (Table 5)
Network Socially (Table 6)
Be Productive (Table 7)
So let’s get started!
