Windows CE Desktop

Windows CE gives you the newest features offered by Microsoft for your
NEC MobilePro and is very similar to Windows 95.

Windows CE includes a desktop with built-in pocket applications, a
taskbar for quick navigation, online networking functions, and more.
Your desktop provides the following icons.

!

My Handheld PC — Opens Windows CE Explorer to display all the
data on your MobilePro, whether stored in RAM or on a storage card
in the PC card or Compact Flash card slots. My Handheld PC is much
like the My Computer icon on the Windows 95 desktop.

!

My Documents — Provides shortcuts to documents most recently
worked on, as well as access to Pocket PowerPoint and Pocket Access.

!

Recycle Bin — Gives you a trash container in which to put unwanted
files.

!

Internet Explorer — Provides web access once you are connected to
the Internet via the MobilePro's built-in modem and an internet service
provider.

Inbox — Allows you to send and receive email messages on your
NEC MobilePro. Refer to Chapter 5, “Setting Up a Remote
Connection,” for details about configuring your MobilePro to send
and receive email.

events and provides a variety of ways to display the stored
information.
