CHAPTER 27

Customizing Your Handheld

Setting the date and time

You can set the date, time, and location for all the applications on your handheld that require this 
information. You can also select the format in which the date, time, and numbers appear.

Selecting a location

You can set the current date and time based on your location. When you travel to a new time zone, 
change the Location setting to quickly reset the date and time. Your appointments stay at the time 
you entered them—no adjustments for time zones. So always enter your schedule based on the 
time zone you will be in on the day of the event.
