3. For better recognition, try increasing the zoom level using the Zoom menu.
4. Write the letters of a word closely and leave big gaps between words so that the GPS Phone 600 can easily tell where words begin and end.
5. Hyphenated words, foreign words that use special characters such as accents, and some punctuation cannot be converted.
6. If you add writing to a word to change it (such as changing a “3” to an “8” ) after you attempt to recognize the word, the writing you add will not be included if you attempt to recognize the writing again.
Drawing on the Screen
You can draw on the screen in the same way that you write on the screen. The difference between writing and drawing on the screen is how you select items and how they can be edited. For example, selected drawings can be resized, while writing cannot.
Creating a Drawing
Cross three ruled lines on your first stroke. A drawing box appears. Subsequent strokes in or touching the drawing box become part of the drawing. Drawings that do not cross three ruled lines will be treated as writing
You may want to change the zoom level so that you can more easily work on or

Using Microsoft ActiveSync
Using Microsoft® ActiveSync®, you can synchronize the information on your desktop computer with the information on your GPS Phone 600. Synchronization compares the data on your GPS Phone 600 with your desktop computer and updates both computers with the most recent information. For example:
Keep Pocket Outlook data up-to- date by synchronizing your GPS Phone 600
with Microsoft Outlook data on your desktop computer.
Synchronize Microsoft Word and Microsoft Excel files between your GPS Phone
600 and desktop computer. Your files are automatically converted to the correct format.
By default, ActiveSync does not automatically synchronize all types of information. Use ActiveSync options to turn synchronization on and off for specific information types.
With ActiveSync, you can also:
Back up and restore your GPS Phone 600.
Copy (rather synchronize) files between your device and your desktop computer.
Control when synchronization occurs by selecting a synchronization mode. For
example, you can synchronize continually while connected to your desktop computer or only when you choose the synchronize command.
Select which information types are synchronized and control how much data is
synchronized. For example, you can choose how many weeks of past appointments you want synchronized.
