Creating Address Book Entries

An Address Book entry is the name, address, and phone information you are keeping for a person or business. You can create these entries on the pdQ smartphone, or you can use the Palm™ Desktop software to create them on your computer and download them to your pdQ smartphone during a HotSync® operation. For procedures, see “Chapter 7—HotSync Technology.”

Note: Palm Desktop software also has data import capabilities that allow you to load database files into the Address Book. Refer to the online documentation supplied with the Palm Desktop for details.

To create a new Address Book entry:

1.Press the button to open the Address List.

2.From the Address List, tap New to display the Address Edit screen.

Tap New.

3.Enter the last name of a person you want to add to your Address Book.

You can write with the stylus or use the on-screen keyboard. The first letter is capitalized automatically (except for numeric and e-mail information). For details about entering text, see the pdQ Basics Handbook.

4. Move to the next line either by tapping it or by writing , the Next Field Graffiti stroke.

5.Enter the person's first name on the First Name line.

6.Enter the rest of the information for this person or business.

Notice that you can enter e-mail addresses or web addresses (URLs) in any of the five phone number fields. To add pauses, see “Entering Pauses” on page 5.

7.Tap to move to the next page.

8.When you have finished, tap Done to return to the Address List screen.

Adding an Address Book Entry to the Speed Dial List

If you want the entry you are creating to appear in the Speed Dial list, follow these steps. Contacts are always added to the Speed Dial list from the Address Book so you only have to maintain the phone numbers in one place.

Call History

Call History maintains a list of your incoming, outgoing, and missed calls. By default, the pdQ smartphone is set to keep 99 calls in Call History, but you can adjust this number as high as 999 if you choose. The pdQ smartphone automatically replaces older entries with new entries.

Using Call History, you can see exactly when someone called you and return the call directly. You can also track data about your calls and export it to the Expense application.

With Call History, you can...

Return a call directly.
