Using your handheld with Microsoft Outlook
The software that comes with your Visor handheld includes
everything you need to synchronize your handheld with Microsoft
Outlook. If you already have Microsoft Outlook installed on your
computer, the installation program prompts you to choose the
Microsoft Outlook synchronization option.
Using your handheld with another PIM
If you prefer to use another personal information manager (PIM), such
as Lotus Notes, you can use it if third-party connection software,
called a conduit, is available for your PIM. You must install the
software that came with your Visor handheld along with the conduit
for your PIM to synchronize the data between your handheld and
your PIM. For information on conduit software, go to this web site:
www.handspring.com.
Installing a Springboard module
Springboard expansion modules enable you to extend the functions of
your handheld. To install a Springboard module, simply remove the
slot protector and insert the module in the Springboard expansion slot
until the connectors are secure.
