CHAPTER 2
Exploring Your Handheld
YourPalm™ Tungsten™ C handheld uses a wireless local area network (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
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 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.
