Customizing your Sony CLIE Handheld (Preferences)
Setting the General preferences
The General Preferences screen enables you to set the auto shut-off interval
and sounds for your CLIE handheld.
Setting the automatic shut-off time
Your CLIE handheld has an automatic shut-off feature that turns off the
power after a period of inactivity. This feature helps conserve battery power
in case you forget to turn off your CLIE handheld. If you find that your CLIE
handheld shuts itself off too early or too late, you can increase or decrease
the time setting for the automatic shut-off feature.
By default, your CLIE handheld will turn off after two minutes of inactivity
and will be on as long as it is connected to the cradle.
