Digitizer Preferences
The Digitizer Preferences screen activates the digitizer calibration
screen. This is the same screen that appears when you start your Palm
III organizer for the first time. A complete description of how to use
the digitizer calibration screen appears in the “Calibrating the Screen”
section in the Basic Handbook for the Palm III Organizer.
Formats Preferences
Use the Formats Preferences screen to set the display format of the
dates, times and numbers on your Palm III organizer.
Country Default
The country default sets date, time, week start day, and number
conventions based on geographic regions where you might use your
Palm III organizer. For example, in the United Kingdom, time often is
expressed based on a 24-hour clock. In the United States it is based on
a 12-hour clock with an AM or PM suffix.
All your Palm III organizer applications use the Country default
settings. You can, however, customize your own preferences as
described in the “Time, Date, Week Start and Numbers Formats”
section later in this chapter.
To set the country default:
1. Tap the country name in the Formats Preferences screen to open
the Country pick list.
2. Tap the setting you want to use.
