To turn the handheld On, press the black button with the green line on the top of the device or simply hold any one of the hard buttons (calendar, contacts, tasks, notes) on the front until the screen for that application comes up. To turn the handheld Off, press the black button with the green line on the top of the device.Entering Text
Text may be entered into the following applications: calendar, contacts, memos, and tasks. There are several ways to enter
- The onscreen keyboard is accessed by tapping an application and then tapping the ABC or 123 in the writing area
- Graffiti 2 writing uses a special set of strokes and allows you to write directly on the screen. You can access Graffiti 2 by drawing a single stroke from the bottom of the input area to the top of your handheld screen.
- Text can be entered into your computer and then 'synced' into any handheld application.
- An external keyboard can also allow you to input text into the handheld.
You must have a flashing cursor present on the handheld to enter text. **The only exception is when using the notepad application. Write letters on the left side of the input area and numbers on the right. Uppercase letters go in the center. You can access more information about entering text by going to the Home icon and then selecting the Quick Tour.

This feature controls how your touch is aligned to the handheld, allows you to set the time and date, control the sound, change the buttons to different programs, adjust the power and writing areas, etc.
