Inserting the SIM card and battery
WARNING Use only batteries and chargers
that are approved by your wireless service provider or Palm with your smartphone. Failure to use an approved battery or charger may increase the risk of your smartphone overheating, catching fire, or exploding, which may result in serious bodily injury, death, or property damage. Failure to use an approved battery or charger may also prevent your smartphone from turning on or charging and may void your smartphone warranty.
Your SIM card contains account information such as your phone number and voicemail access number. To use your smartphone’s phone, email, or web features, you need to insert a SIM card.
If you don’t have a SIM card, contact your wireless service provider.
To take advantage of the high-speed data connection available on your smartphone, you may need to have a 3G SIM card.
Check with your wireless service provider for information.
IMPORTANT Your smartphone responds
only after you complete these steps. After the screen wakes up the first time, you can turn it on and off by pressing Power .

Navigating around the screen
To navigate around the smartphone screen, you can use the 5-way navigator or you can tap items on the screen with the stylus. As you become familiar with your smartphone, you’ll find your own favorite way to scroll, highlight, and select items.
Using the 5-way, press Right , Left , Up , or Down to move around the screen. Press Center to highlight and select items.

Highlighting and selecting items
On most screens, one item—a button, a list entry, or a check box—is highlighted by default. The highlight identifies which item is affected by your next action. Use the 5-way to move the highlight from one item to another before opening or selecting it.
TIP
The best way to learn to use the 5-way is to experiment. Press the 5-way buttons, and as you do, follow the movement of the highlight around the screen. The behavior of the 5-way varies slightly in each application.
The highlight can take one of two forms, depending on what is highlighted:
Border: This rectangular border highlights items such as an onscreen button (such as OK, Dismiss, or Hide), a check box, an option, or a web link.
Light text on a dark background: This highlights items such as a phone number, an email address, text, or an item in a list.

You can connect a phone headset for hands-free operation. You can use either the headset that came with your smartphone or a compatible third-party headset.
IMPORTANT If driving while using a
smartphone is permitted in your area, we recommend using a headset or hands-free car kit (both sold separately). However, be aware that use of a headset that covers both ears impairs your ability to hear other sounds. Use of such a headset while operating a motor vehicle or riding a bicycle may create a serious hazard to you and/or others, and may be illegal. If you must use a stereo headset while driving, place a speaker in only one ear. Leave the other ear free to hear outside noises, and do so only if it is legal and you can do so safely.

NOTE Your smartphone works with
headsets that have a 3.5mm connector (look for three colored bands on the plug). When in doubt, ask the third-party headset manufacturer if the product is compatible with your smartphone. If you hear a headset buzz or poor microphone performance, your headset may be incompatible with your smartphone.

After you set up a connection with a Bluetooth headset or hands-free car kit, you can communicate with that device whenever it is within range and the Bluetooth feature on your smartphone is turned on.

Synchronization overview
This chapter discusses using desktop sync software and other methods to synchronize your smartphone and your computer.
When you synchronize, info you enter on your smartphone, your computer, or your corporate server is automatically updated in the other location. There’s no need to enter the info twice. This is true whether you sync with your computer using desktop synchronization software (see Setting up your computer for synchronization) or wirelessly with your company’s Exchange server using Microsoft Exchange ActiveSync (see Setting up wireless synchronization
).
How do I synchronize?
There are a number of ways to make synchronization occur. You can install
desktop sync software on your computer to synchronize in one of several ways, or you may be able to synchronize wirelessly with an Exchange server. You can also maximize your sync options and sync with both an Exchange server and desktop sync software.
Synchronizing with desktop sync software
The sync application on your smartphone is called ActiveSync. The name of the desktop sync software on your computer depends on your computer’s operating system.
Windows XP: The desktop sync software is called ActiveSync
Windows Vista: The desktop sync software is called Windows Mobile Device Center.
You install the software by connecting your smartphone to your computer. You must install this software even if you have already installed a previous version of desktop sync software. See for instructions.
