Making connections from Address Book

You can use the entries in your Address Book to launch applications that perform tasks such as dialing a phone number or creating an e-mail or SMS message. Some of the applications you can launch are included on the Software Essentials CD-ROM that comes with your handheld, and others may be available from third- party developers and are sold separately. Most of these applications require a GSM mobile phone or an optional modem accessory that is compatible with your handheld (mobile phone and modem accessory sold separately).

Quick Connect

You can use Quick Connect to select an entry and initiate a related task with one hand, using the navigator. You can also configure which application opens when you choose a specific Address record field, and whether to add a prefix to all phone numbers.
