9.9 ZIP
ZIP allows you to save memory and increase the storage
capacity of your T-Mobile MDA III by compressing files in the
conventional "zip" format. You can view and extract archive
files received via web download, E-mail attachment, other
mobile devices, or PCs. Or, create new zip files on your T-
Mobile MDA III.
Starting ZIP
Each time ZIP is started, it searches for all files on the T-Mobile
MDA III that have the .zip extension, and displays these files
in the Archive List screen. To start ZIP :
1. Tap > Programs > ZIP
2. If .zip fiels are found on your device, they will display on the
Archive List screen.
3. Tap on a file to open it.

a Reset button which resets all settings in the current tab to
the original default settings.
