you have something to do. For example, if you have set up an
appointment in Calendar, a task with a due date in Tasks or an alarm
in Clock, you will be notified in any of the following ways:
A message appears on the screen.
A warning sound that can remind you.
The GSM/notification indicator flashes.
You can choose customized reminder types by tapping
SettingsPersonalSounds & Notifications.
2.12 Entering Information
Your Pocket PC Phone provides several options for entering new information:
Use the Input panel to enter typed texts
Write directly on the screen.
Draw pictures on the screen.
Speak into the microphone to record a message.
Using the Input Panel
Use the Input panel to enter information in any program on your
Pocket PC Phone. You can either type words by
using the soft keyboard; or
write with your hand.
In any case, the characters appear as typed text on the screen.
To show or hide the Input panel, tap the Input panel button. Tap the
arrow next to the Input panel button to see your choices.
When you use the Input panel, your Pocket PC Phone anticipates the
word you are typing or writing and displays it above the Input panel.
When you tap the displayed word, it is inserted into your text at the
insertion point. The more you use your Pocket PC Phone, the more
words it learns to anticipate.
