■ Open the lid to turn it on, or close the lid to turn it off.

■ Press and release the power button.

Charging the Battery

Your handheld battery provides approximately 2 hours of talk time or 72 hours of standby time. If the battery drains to the reserve level, you can still use your handheld applications for about 1 day, but there is not enough power to use the phone and other wireless features.

It takes approximately 1 hour to charge a fully drained battery. To charge the battery do one of the following:

■ When you’re near your computer, connect your handheld to the

HotSync shown on page 27.

■ When travelling, connect the AC adapter cable directly to your

handheld as shown here.
