Getting to know your handheld computer
What is a TRGpro handheld computer?
With your TRGpro handheld computer, you will no longer have
trouble getting to meetings and appointments on time, remembering
people’s names and personal details, or keeping track of all the items
on your to do list. The handheld computer can help you improve your
track record in all these areas, both at work and at home.
You can enter all your schedule details in Date Book so you can view
them by the day, week, or month; you can even set an alarm to remind
you of important meetings. Keep all your contact names, addresses,
phone numbers, and other details in Address Book, so you can find
them as soon as you need them. Add your tasks to your To Do List,
prioritize them so you don’t overlook them, and assign them a due
date.
To make sure you don’t lose any of this important information, you
can synchronize your data with Palm Desktop software on your
computer so you always have a backup copy. You can set different
levels of security for your handheld computer so unauthorized eyes
cannot view your data.
When you are out of the office, track your expenses for your expense
reports; then transfer the data to your computer to print it out. You can
write, edit, and view your e-mail, and then synchronize your e-mail
with your desktop e-mail application when you return to your office.
