Using the Stowaway Portable Keyboard –Palm OS ®

Things to Remember

Use the keyboard on a flat surface which supports the keyboard as well as the attached handheld computer. If you are using the keyboard on your lap, place it on a book or other flat surface.

Use your stylus for selecting list items, making menu selections, and giving commands in applications that are not compatible with the keyboard. (Palm OS does not support cursor control).

Use the handy stylus wells in the right and left corners of the keyboard to keep your stylus within reach.

Make sure the dock mechanism is fully extended and upright before attaching your handheld. Do not try to attach your handheld before raising the dock to the upright position.
