Using the stylus and touch screen

Use the stylus in much the same way you would use a mouse to navigate and select objects on screen. You can also use your fingertip to tap the touch screen, but the stylus provides the greatest accuracy.

For convenience, the stylus is stored in the stylus slot on the front of the HP Jornada. To remove the stylus, push on the stylus to release the catch as you slide it out of the slot.

The top of the stylus pops up to make it easy to remove the stylus. Pressing the top has no effect on the stylus function.

To navigate by using the stylus, follow these tips

•Instead of clicking the mouse, simply tap the stylus on the touch screen to select an icon or activate a button.

•Double-tap instead of double-clicking the mouse.• Hold down the alt key as you tap instead of right- clicking the mouse.

To replace the stylus, insert the pointed end of the stylus into the slot and push until it clicks into place.
