Exploring Your Handheld
Your Palm™ Zire™ 71 handheld can help you stay organized, on time, and

handheld to do the following:
■ Enter your schedule in Date Book.
■ Keep all your contact names, addresses, and phone numbers in Address Book.

■ Jot quick notes directly on the screen in Note Pad.
■ Prioritize and assign your tasks a due date in To Do List.
■ Create and view text memos in Memo Pad.
■ Track your expenses and create expense reports in Expense.
■ Set alarms from World Clock, Date Book, and Note Pad to keep yourself on
schedule and remind yourself of appointments and notes.
■ Synchronize your data with Palm™ Desktop software on your Windows or Mac
computer so you always have a backup copy.
■ Insert an SD or a MultiMediaCard expansion card to add more software or
memory or to back up your data, or insert an SDIO expansion card.
■ Share information with other devices that have an infrared (IR) port.
When you install the software from the Software Essentials CD-ROM that comes
with your handheld, you can use your handheld for entertainment applications, to
access productivity tools, and to stay in touch with SMS and e-mail messages.
NOTE You may need to download software from the Internet while installing some
applications from the Software Essentials CD-ROM.
