7.4 Notes

Notes help you quickly capture ideas, notes, and thoughts. You can create a note using

written and typed text, drawings, and voice recordings. You can also share your notes with

others through E-mail, infrared, and synchronization with your desktop/notebook PC (see

Chapter 4).
To create documents with advanced formatting or templates, such as bulleted lists and tabs,

use word processing software developed for your device, such as

Pocket Word.

Start > Programs > Notes, or

by pressing the uppermost hardware button on the left side of your Pocket PC Phone

3. Create your note by writing, drawing, typing, or recording. See Entering Information in

Chapter 2 for details about using the input panel, writing and drawing on the screen, and

creating recordings.

TIP: You can insert the date in a note. First, de-select the Pen Tool icon in the Com-

mand Bar, and make sure that no drawings are selected. Next, tap and hold anywhere on
