TIP
Press the Address Book application button repeatedly to cycle through the
categories in which you have records. You can also press and hold the Address Book
application button to instantly beam your business card to another device with an IR

Book data.
Creating an Address Book entry
A record in Address Book is called an entry . You can create entries on your
handheld, or you can use Palm™ Desktop software or Microsoft Outlook to create
entries on your computer and then transfer the entries to your handheld with your
next HotSync
® operation.
Palm Desktop software also has data import capabilities so that you can load
database files into Address Book on your handheld.
See “Importing data” in Chapter 3 and Palm Desktop online Help for more
information.
