CHAPTER 2

Exploring Your Handheld
Your wirelessly enabled Palm™ Tungsten™ W handheld helps you stay in touch
with important information while you are away from your desk. You can stay
organized, on time, and up-to-date with daily tasks. Use your new handheld to do
the following:
Compose and securely send and receive business or personal e-mail wirelessly.
NOTE Some companies restrict access to internal e-mail accounts when using
a handheld. Check your company for their policy on use of handhelds.
Receive alerts when a new voicemail or SMS message arrives or a reminder
occurs. Rely on any or all of the three alert modes: the indicator light, vibrator,
or alarm sound. Support for the alert feature depends on your contract with
your wireless service provider.
Access WAP content, applications, and games.
Make phone calls using a hands-free headset.
Set preferences for how you receive alarms: hearing a sound, seeing a blinking
indicator light, or feeling your handheld vibrate. Choose any combination.
Access Internet information.
Browse or search the Internet.
��Download and use web clipping applications that help you find specially
formatted Internet information quickly.
NOTE Using web clipping on the handheld requires software that is available
on the Software Essentials CD.
Enter your schedule in Date Book.
Keep all your contact names, addresses, and phone numbers in Address Book.
Prioritize and assign your tasks a due date in To Do List.
Set alarms from World Clock and Date Book to keep yourself on schedule and
remind yourself of appointments, redial reminders, and notes.
Synchronize your data with Palm™ Desktop software on your Windows or
Mac computer so you can work with your personal information on your
computer and maintain a copy of your information.
