Contacts

Contacts is where you enter information about people you know. You can access this information from the Phone application to dial phone numbers and create favorites, and from the Messaging and email applications to send messages. When you create a contact, you can also assign a caller ID picture or ringtone to that contact, so that you know when that person is calling.

If you have several contacts to enter, it’s more efficient to use Palm® Desktop software or Microsoft® Outlook® on your computer and then synchronize information between your Palm Centro™ smart device and your computer. For more information, see “Synchronizing Information—The Basics” on page 35.

Note:

If you use Microsoft Exchange ActiveSync®, your contacts information (as well as email and calendar information) is moved directly between your company's Exchange server and your smart device using either Microsoft Direct Push technology or synchronization. Push is a feature provided by Microsoft ActiveSync that pushes email messages, Calendar events, meeting invitations, and updated contact information it receives onto your device. You retrieve contacts (and email and calendar) updates from the server; they are not updated when you synchronize directly with your computer. For additional information, see “Getting Messages From Your Corporate Microsoft Exchange Server Onto Your Device” on page 138 (VersaMail® application users).
