Welcome

Congratulations on purchasing your NEC MobilePro 790 handheld PC. The size and instant-on capability of this device give you immediate access to your most important work no matter where you are, whether its email, Web access, word processing, spreadsheets, presentations, or enterprise class custom software. In addition, your MobilePro 790 can synchronize with other computers so your finished work is available where you need it. Picture yourself in the following situations:

!Before a business trip you synchronize all your unread email onto your MobilePro 790. In the air you read and reply to fifty messages, which get sent automatically the next time you connect your MobilePro to your office PC.

!You’re visiting an important customer, gathering feedback to discuss with colleagues back in the office. Using Calendar, Contacts, and Inbox, you schedule a meeting and send it to your colleagues while still on the road.

!You are on the road taking customer orders. Using custom software developed by your company, and any analog phone line (or perhaps a wireless modem), you connect to your company network to check inventory and place the order. The rich software development tools available for MobilePro’s Microsoft operating system make this scenario increasingly common.

!During a few spare minutes in the airport, you check your email and send a note to your daughter wishing her luck at the gymnastics meet. (Requires access to an analog phone line or wireless modem card and subscription to an Internet service provider or corporate network server.)

Before you start using your device for the first time, you will need to install the battery and connect the AC adapter to start charging. Then just turn it on and follow a few on-screen instructions to set the time and adjust the touch screen.
