Upgrading from another Palm Powered device | Handspring 600 guide

•Applications Launcher: Some previous Palm Powered devices called this the Home screen. To access this screen, press Applications Launcher .

•Find: Some previous Palm Powered devices launched this global search engine by tapping the magnifying glass icon in the Grafﬁti area. Now you

can access it by pressing Option and Shift together.

•Menu commands: Users familiar with Grafﬁti’s Menu launch command

can now access system menus by pressing Menu (see page 22).

•Backlight: Treo includes a keyboard backlight that also dims the screen slightly for low light conditions. While your Treo screen is on, press Option then P to turn on the keyboard backlight.

•Center button: If you used a previous Treo phone, you might be accustomed to pressing Spacebar to activate commands or dial numbers. With this Treo phone, we recommend pressing Center instead.

•Screen button: The fourth button on the right is used to control the screen and is not an application button. However, you can remap this button to your favorite application if you wish (see page 117).

•Internet connection: This Treo was designed to work on GPRS wireless data networks. When you sign up for a GPRS wireless data account, these settings are automatically conﬁgured on your Treo. If you prefer to use an older, manual dial-up connection method, enter your Internet service provider’s settings in Network Preferences.

•5-way navigation compatibility: Some Palm OS 5 applications are optimized for 5-way navigation on devices other than Treo. Therefore you may notice inconsistencies with software that is not designed with Treo in mind.

To access a menu shortcut, press Menu, then the letter for the shortcut.

Some third-party utilities allow you to backup your old device’s data onto an SD or MMC card, and then transfer the data to your Treo. We do not recommend this method because any incompatible applications are also transferred to your Treo.
