Turning your smartphone on/off

The term smartphone refers to the device and its physical aspects. The term phone refers to the wireless feature of your Palm® TreoPro smartphone that enables you to connect to your wireless service provider’s network so that you can make and receive calls and send and receive data.

The phone and the screen of your smartphone can be turned off and on separately. This means you can wake up the screen to use just the organizer features of your device (Calendar, Contacts, Tasks, Notes, and so on) without turning on the phone. Also, when the screen is turned off, the phone can be on and ready for you to receive phone calls or messages.
