Soft reset—A soft reset (also called “warm boot”) is similar to restarting your desktop PC. It restarts the operating system and preserves any saved data.

Factory default reset—A factory default reset (also called “hard reset”) restores your HP Jornada to its original state, erasing all information you have entered.

To ensure the safety of your information in case a factory default reset is necessary, you should regularly back up your data to your desktop PC (using Microsoft ActiveSync) or to a CompactFlash or PC Card (using the HP Jornada backup application). For more information on backing up data, see the Backing up and restoring data section in chapter 5.

To perform a soft reset
