Palm OS

The operating system of your Treo 680. Palm OS is known for its simplicity of use and for the large number of compatible third-party applications that can be added to your smartphone.

Palm™ Quick Install

The component on your Windows computer that enables you to install Palm OS applications and other information on your Treo.

Partnership

Two Bluetooth devices—for example, your smartphone and a hands-free device—that can connect because each device finds the same passkey on the other device. Once you form a partnership with a device, you don’t need to enter a passkey to connect with that device again. Partnership is also known as paired relationship, pairing, trusted device, and trusted pair on some devices.

Phone

The application on your Treo 680 that enables you to make and receive phone calls.

PIM (personal information manager)

A genre of software that includes applications such as Palm Desktop software, Microsoft Outlook, Lotus Notes, and ACT!. PIMs generally store contacts, schedules, tasks, and memos.

PIN (personal identification number)

The four-digit password assigned to your SIM card by your wireless service provider. Turning on the PIN lock secures your wireless account. See also PUK.

PIN2 (personal identification number 2)

A code that protects certain network settings such as call barring or fixed dialing.

PUK (PIN unlock key)

A special extended password assigned to your SIM card. If you enter the wrong PIN more than three times, your SIM card will be blocked and you must call your wireless service provider for the PUK.

Quick key

A letter that you can press and hold to activate a favorite from any tab in the Phone app. For example, create a speed-dial button for your mother's number and enter the letter M for “Mom”
