Palm profile: A Palm profile gives you access to services like automatic updates, backup of your data, and more. You create a Palm profile by entering a working email address during initial setup of your phone. See “Set Up Your Phone” on page 18. Your Palm profile also identifies the location on the Web where the data you store in your Palm profile accounts is backed up. (You cannot see or change this data on the Web, however.) See also “Palm profile account” on page 294.

Palm profile account: An account you can use to assign contacts and calendar events you create on your phone. Palm profile items are included in the daily backup of information to your Palm profile but do not synchronize with any of your online accounts. See also “Palm profile” on page 294.

pinch: A gesture used to go in for a close view (zoom in) or see a larger view (zoom out). To

zoom in, you pinch out: Place the thumb and index fingertips close together on the

touchscreen, then slowly spread them apart. To zoom out, you pinch in: Place the thumb and index fingertips apart on the touchscreen, and slowly bring them together.

Quick Launch: A bar of up to five icons that give you quick access to applications. Quick Launch always appears at the bottom of Card view and the Launcher. By default, Quick Launch displays icons for the following apps: Phone, Email, Contacts, and Calendar. The fifth icon is the Launcher. Tap a Quick Launch icon to open the app.

You can also open Quick Launch from any maximized application window by dragging up from the gesture area to the screen. Move your finger to the app you want, and then lift your finger. The application opens.

smart folder: A folder such as All Inboxes that always appears at the top of the merged folders view in the Email application.

swipe: A light, fast horizontal movement with the finger from right to left or left to right on the touchscreen or the gesture area.

Sym key: The key you use to enter symbols and accented characters. Press Sym to open the full table of symbols. Press Sym + a letter key to narrow the table to symbols associated with that letter—for example, press + e to enter é.

SynergyTM feature: The feature from Palm that lets you take advantage of merged views and linked contacts on your phone.
