Address Book

Address Book is the application in which you store name and address
information about people or businesses.

Creating an Address Book entry

A record in Address Book is called an “entry.” You can create entries
on your handheld, or you can use Palm Desktop software to create
entries on your computer and then download the entries to your
handheld with your next HotSync operation.

Palm Desktop software also has data import capabilities that enable
you to load database files into Address Book on your handheld.
