Palm DualDate Getting Started Guide, Revision 1.1 1
What is Palm™ DualDate™?
With Palm™ DualDate™ you and another Palm handheld user can share your calendars.
Currently the Palm Date Book contains a single calendar. Palm DualDate enhances the Palm
Date Book by allowing you and other Palm DualDate users to send, receive, and synchronize your
calendars. This enhancement also lets you view the two calendars side-by-side on your handheld.
Palm DualDate adds these features to your Date Book:

merged in the Week, Month, and Agenda Views
oSwitch between single calendar and dual calendar display by tapping the active calendar
view icon

View
• Synchronize shared calendars with other Palm DualDate users
oAfter sharing your calendar with other DualDate users, you update their copy of your
calendar by beaming it to them again.
