Soft Reset

A soft reset is like rebooting a computer. It is designed to stop all applications and
clear out temporary data associated with running programs. No files are deleted. A
soft reset is the lowest level of reset, (i.e., it clears the least amount of the device
state).

It can also be used to stop application programs that are “hung” and do not
respond to external input. Since Windows Mobile powered devices do not normally
shut down an application after it is started, this is one way to stop all applications.

To perform a soft reset:
Using the tip of your stylus, lightly press the Soft Reset button inside the hole on the
bottom of your SoMo 650 and then release.
