You can also lock your handheld so that you need to enter your password to operate it.

Important: If you lock your handheld, you must enter the exact password to re-activate your handheld. If you forget the password, you need to perform a hard reset to resume using your handheld. Performing a hard reset deletes all the records in your handheld; however, you can restore all synchronized data at the next HotSync operation. See “Performing a hard reset” in Appendix A for details.
