By using this phone, you get the best of both worlds. You can communicate and have a personal assistant all in one unit.
What Is a Handheld Computer? The handheld computer is a personal digital assistant that simplifies the way you keep track of important events and information in your life. By using the handheld computer, you can keep track of and automatically update information with a tap of the stylus. The stylus is the instrument that is used to navigate inside the handheld computer. It has a special point that serves to touch the screen to input information into the handheld computer.
Tapping and Typing To navigate the handheld computer, you must use the stylus. The stylus works similar to a mouse on a regular desktop machine, but instead of clicking an icon, you tap it. The first time the handheld computer is turned on, a setup screen is displayed with instructions. These instructions include a calibration setup that aligns the internal circuitry with the touch sensitive screen. To re-calibrate the digitizer at anytime, see "Screen Calibration" on page 167.
4. Use the stylus to touch the number keys, enter values into the calculator and perform calculations. 5. When you have completed calculations, tap the icon on the bottom of the screen. 6. The main menu of the handheld computer is displayed. Customizing Your Handheld Computer Now that you are getting more familiar with the handheld computer, it is time to personalize it by adding some information.

Question: I cannot perform a HotSync operation with Palm Desktop version 4.0 installed? Answer: Palm TM Desktop 4.0 was only released a short time before being upgraded to version 4.1. You MUST use Palm Desktop ver 4.1 with the i500. This software fixed numerous issues. You can download the software from http://www.palm.net or install from the distribution CD.
