Learning Input Methods

Using Input Software

To input information to your Pocket PC, you can tap the on-screen keyboard or write with the Letter Recognizer, Microsoft Transcriber, or Block Recognizer in any application. You can use the stylus to draw and write on the screen in the Notes application and from any Notes tab in the Calendar, Contacts, and Tasks applications.

ÄCAUTION: To avoid damaging your iPAQ Pocket PC screen, always use a stylus. Never use a pen or any type of metal pointer on the screen.

Note: Microsoft Transcriber is a free program that you can download from the Microsoft Web site.

Changing Word Suggestion Options

As you type or write, the Pocket PC suggests words for you in a box above the keyboard, Letter Recognizer, or Block Recognizer, but not in the Transcriber.

You determine:

If words are suggested.

The number of letters you enter before a word is suggested.

The number of words that are suggested per entry.
