Choosing when to export

Typically, you export when you want to transfer a large amount of information
from your Newton device to your computer and maintain the information on
your computer. For example, you might export information in your Notepad
from your Newton to include in a report you’re writing on your computer.

However, if you have information you want to keep current on both your
Newton device and your computer (for example, your appointment calendar),
you may prefer to synchronize instead of export. For more information, see
Chapter 7, “Synchronizing Information.”
