HOW TO SEND CONTENT FROM THE INTERNET

In addition to receiving free daily Info Feeds from Yahoo!, you can choose to send personalized, customized Alerts to your Internet Messenger Watch from select Internet content providers, as long as you have a PC with Internet access.

Services include sending Internet e-mails to your watch, as well as news updates, sports scores, weather reports, stock quotes, flight info, horoscopes and more. Both the volume of content and the number of websites that support mobile devices will be constantly growing as the technology becomes more widespread.

“ITS AS EASY AS 1…2…3!”

1First sign up with SkyTel for SkyWord alphanumeric service. You will be assigned a PIN #. You can send messages to your watch from:

A “Send a message” page at www.timex.com or www.skytel.com. Enter PIN #

Or, call 1.800-759-8888, and either leave a numeric or voice message

Or, send info from Internet sites (go to #2 below). With SkyWord service, your pager PIN # is also your e-mail address for the watch, PIN#@timex.skytel.com.

2From your computer with internet access, you can browse any site that provides wireless service.

Some examples of available mobile websites for you to use to send information to your watch: mobile.yahoo.com; mobile.msn.com; www.ebay.com/anywhere/; my.lycos.com. (For a complete list please check mobile.timex.com.)

Click on a site, register your logon and password and follow instructions.
