Buttons preferences
The Buttons Preferences screen enables you to associate different applications with
the buttons on the front of the handheld.
Any changes you make in the Buttons Preferences screen become effective
immediately; you do not have to change to a different screen or application.
If you assign a different application to a button, you can still access the original
application using the Applications Launcher.
To change the Buttons preferences:
1. Tap the pick list next to the button you want to reassign.
2. Select the application that you want to assign to the button.
Connection preferences
The Connection Preferences screen enables you to define the settings used to
connect your handheld to other devices. The screen displays a list of available
configurations that are ready to be further defined; the list varies depending on the
kind of software you’ve added to your handheld.
You can also create custom configurations, which include the following:
