CHAPTER 22
Keeping Your Information Private
Encrypting your information
You can encrypt selected information whenever your handheld locks. This means that your 
information is scrambled so that it cannot be read. When you unlock your handheld and enter 
your password or Quick Unlock combination, the encrypted information is unscrambled.
The more information you select for encryption, the longer your handheld takes to scramble (and 
unscramble) the information. Also, applications that use large files, such as palmOne™
Media,
take a long time to encrypt. In these cases, consider the trade-off between security and 
convenience.
