Learning about HP Jornada

Hewlett-Packard has taken mobile computing to new levels of compatibility and convenience. With HP Jornada, you’ll notice many benefits not found in other, similar computers. For example you can:

•Move the data you already have on an older palmtop or handheld PC to your HP Jornada. You can transfer information from older Windows CE devices and even some non–Windows CE devices. (See the Transferring PIM data from older palmtop PCs section in chapter 3.)

•Use e-mail without a modem. Conveniently send e-mail automatically when you synchronize with your desktop PC. (See the Synchronizing data section in chapter 3.)

•Take more data with you. A desktop Microsoft Word file may take up to 85 percent less space on your HP Jornada. (See the Transferring files section in chapter 3.)

•Send voice messages to friends and colleagues—even those who do not have Windows CE devices. You can save voice messages in the compatible Wave audio format. (See the Recording voice memos section in chapter 4.)

•Keep Word, Access, and Excel files stored at work and at home synchronized. Update any file in any location, and once you synchronize, the file will be updated in every place it is stored. (See the Synchronizing data section in chapter 3.)

•Read online news and information while offline, or down- load Web pages for viewing later. (See the Browsing the Web section in Chapter 6.)

•Work any time, any place, with up to 7 hours of battery life. (See the Managing battery power section in chapter 3.)
