Palm Desktop: A PIM application for computers that helps you manage your personal information and keep your personal data synchronized with your Treo.

Palm OS: The operating system of your Treo phone. A trademark of PalmSource, Palm OS is known for its simplicity of use and for the large number of applications that can be added to your Treo.

Phone : The application on your Treo that provides quick access to the most commonly used applications on your Treo.

PIM (Personal Information Management): A genre of software that includes applications such as Palm Desktop software, Microsoft Outlook, Lotus Notes, and ACT!. PIMs generally store contacts, schedules, to do items, and memos.

PIN (Personal Identiﬁcation Number): The four-digit password assigned to your SIM card by your mobile service provider. Turning on the PIN lock secures your wireless account. See also PUK.

PocketMirror: Software included on the Treo CD that lets you synchronize with Microsoft Outlook (English language and Windows only). PocketMirror is made by a third-party company called Chapura, Inc.
