Buttons Preferences
The Buttons Preferenc es screen enables you to a ssociate different appli cations with the
application buttons o n the front of your com municator and the H otSync button on the c able. For
example, if you find that you seldom use SMS Messaging and often use To Do List, you can
assign the SMS Messaging button to start To Do List. 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 or icon you want to re-assign.
2. Tap the applica tion that you want to assign to the button.
