Using your console with another desktop organizer

If you prefer to use another desktop organizer, such as Microsoft Outlook, you can do so. After you install Palm Desktop software, simply install the connection software for your desktop organizer, called a conduit. The conduit lets you synchronize the data between your console and your desktop organizer.

The Palm Desktop software CD includes PocketMirror from Chapura conduit, which enables you to synchronize the PIM applications (Date Book, Address Book, To Do List, and Memo Pad) with Microsoft Outlook. If you would like to synchronize these applications with Microsoft Outlook, first install Palm Desktop software, and then browse the CD for Chapura PocketMirror, and run the setup program to install it.

If you want to synchronize with a desktop organizer application other than Palm Desktop software or Microsoft Outlook or, you must purchase the necessary conduit software (if available).
