CHAPTER 2
Exploring Your Handheld
Your Palm™ Tungsten™ C handheld uses a wireless LAN to help you stay in touch
with important information while you are away from your desk. You can stay
organized, on time, and up-to-date with daily tasks. Use your new handheld to do
the following:
■
Compose and securely send and receive business or personal e-mail through
your wireless LAN.
NOTE
Some companies restrict access to internal e-mail accounts when using
a handheld. Check your company or network administrator for their policy on
the use of handhelds.
■
Receive alerts when a new e-mail arrives or a reminder occurs. Rely on any or
all of the three alert modes: the indicator light, vibrator, or alarm sound.
■
Set preferences for how you receive alarms: hearing a sound, seeing a blinking
indicator light, or feeling your handheld vibrate. Choose any combination.
■
Browse or search the Internet.
■
Enter your schedule in Date Book.
■
Keep all your contact names, addresses, and phone numbers in Address Book.
■
Prioritize and assign your tasks a due date in To Do List.
■
Set alarms from World Clock, Note Pad, and Date Book to keep yourself on
schedule and remind yourself of appointments, redial reminders, and notes.
■
Synchronize your data with Palm™ Desktop software on your Windows or Mac
computer so you can work with your personal information on your computer
and maintain a copy of your information.
■
Insert SD, MultiMediaCard, or SDIO expansion cards to add more software or
memory, or to back up your data.
■
Beam information to another device that has an infrared (IR) port.
