Welcome 1

Congratulations on purchasing the Hewlett-Packard Jornada 600 Series Handheld PC (H/PC), a mobile device powered by the Microsoft® Win- dows® CE operating system. The HP Jornada 600 Series H/PC is available in four models: the HP Jornada 680e, 680, 690e, and 690. This User’s Guide includes instructions for all four models. The differences in specifications are:

•Model 680e—no built-in modem, 16MB RAM.

•Model 680—built-in modem, 16MB RAM.

•Model 690e—no built-in modem, 32MB RAM.

•Model 690—built-in modem, 32MB RAM.

(Note that on models 690 and 690e, a maximum of 16MB can be allocated for storage memory.)

If you are familiar with Microsoft Windows products and notebook PCs, you will notice that your HP Jornada has many of the same characteristics, making it easy for you to be productive quickly.

In this chapter, you will find:

•An overview of this User’s Guide and other sources of help and information

•A list and brief descriptions of the built-in applications, including Microsoft Windows CE, Handheld PC Professional Edition software and special HP applications

•An introduction to HP Jornada features and a description of the advantages of using the HP Jornada
