A user profile can be created to install this information before the handhelds are distributed to employees.

Writing in the Graffiti 2 input area You can write Graffiti 2 characters in the input area, or you can turn on full-screen writing and write anywhere on the screen. In the input area, write lowercase letters, uppercase letters, and numbers in the sections shown. If you write characters in the wrong area, they are not recognized correctly and an incorrect character is written.

You can use your handheld on its own to look up phone numbers, enter appointments, and so on. But you can do much more with your handheld if you synchronize it with your computer. Synchronizing simply means that information that has been entered or updated in one place (your handheld or your computer) is automatically updated in the other. There’s no need to enter information twice.

What is device discovery? Discovery is the process in which your handheld searches for other Bluetooth devices within its range (approximately thirty feet). As each device is discovered, it shows up in your Discovery Results. After you find the devices you are looking for, you can select the devices with which you want to connect. The Bluetooth application on your handheld can be turned on and off, and the application has a Discoverable setting that can also be turned on and off. The following is a description of setting combinations and the resulting discovery states: Bluetooth Off: This is similar to locking your door with a dead bolt and a security chain, and disabling the doorbell. When Bluetooth is off, you cannot access the Discoverable setting. Bluetooth On and Discoverable No: have previously formed a trusted pair. This is similar to locking your door with a dead bolt and disabling the doorbell, but any friends who already have the key can enter. By default, the Discoverable setting is enabled when Bluetooth is on. Bluetooth On and Discoverable Yes: Discoverable setting is set to Yes, you can receive connections from automatically connected with devices with which you have previously communicated, but you can refuse invitations to connect with unrecognized devices. This is similar to locking your front door with a dead bolt and enabling the doorbell. Friends who already have the key can enter freely, and if someone without a key rings the bell to request a connection, you can choose to open the door or ignore the request.

Selecting a different service for an email account When you service. You also select one of these services to be the default for all network activity on your handheld, including sending and receiving email. For any given email account, however, you can switch to a different service for that account only. For example, the default service you have selected for your handheld may be called Bluetooth and may use your handheld’s built-in Bluetooth functionality to make a connection to your corporate mail server. However, for your Earthlink account, you may want to switch to the service called IR, which uses your handheld’s IR port to make a connection to your email service provider through your mobile phone. When you exit the VersaMail application, the service disconnects (unless you are using the default service for your handheld). When you reopen the application, the email account you selected (Earthlink in this example) continues to connect using the new connection (IR in this example) until you either select a new service or uncheck the Always connect using box. If you uncheck the Always connect using box, the email account (Earthlink) connects using the default handheld service (Bluetooth in this example). The Always connect using box changes the connection service for the selected email account only. You must follow the procedure for each email account whose connection you want to switch from the default connection on your handheld.

Tip Create a filter, for example, so that whenever you receive email about sales meetings, it goes immediately into a folder you create called Sales. Or create a filter so that stock quotes sent to you by your online brokerage service go to a folder you create called Finance.

If you create a filter, only messages that meet the filter criteria are downloaded IMPORTANT

Creating and using filters Filters provide efficient ways to manage email retrieval and storage. When you select Get Mail or Get & Send, filters determine which email messages are downloaded to your handheld and in which folder the downloaded messages are stored. ! to your handheld. You don’t see any other messages that have been sent to you, even in your Inbox. To avoid this, you must set up two filters. For example, suppose you create a filter to have all messages with “onlinebroker” in the From field moved to your Finance folder. You must then create a second filter, specifying that all mail NOT containing “onlinebroker” in the From field should be moved to the Inbox (or other folder you designate). If you don’t create this second filter, only messages containing “onlinebroker” in the From field are downloaded to your handheld.
