Palm Treo 600 - Manual (Page 141)

Upgrading from another Palm Powered™ device :: 139
• Applications Launcher: Some previous Palm Powered™ devices called this the
Home screen. To access this screen, press Applications Launcher .
• Find: Some previous Palm Powered devices launched this global search engine by
tapping the magnifying glass icon in the Graffiti ® area. Now you can access it by
pressing Option and Shift together.
• Menu commands: Users familiar with Graffiti’s Menu launch command can now
access system menus by pressing Menu (see page 21).
• Backlight: Treo includes a keyboard backlight that also dims the screen slightly for
low light conditions. While your Treo screen is on, press Option , then P to turn
on the keyboard backlight.
• Center button: If you used an earlier model Treo, you might be accustomed to
pressing Spacebar to activate commands or dial numbers. With this Treo, we
recommend pressing Center instead.
• Screen button: The fourth button on the right is used to control the screen and is
not an application button. However, you can remap this button to your favorite
application (see page 124).
• Internet connection: This Treo was designed to work on high speed wireless data
networks. When you sign up for a high speed wireless data account, these settings
are automatically configured on your Treo.
• 5-way navigation compatibility: Some Palm OS 5 applications are optimized for
5-way navigation on devices other than Treo. Therefore you may notice
inconsistencies with software that is not optimized for Treo.
To access a menu shortcut,
press Menu, then the letter
for the shortcut.
Some third-party utilities
allow you to back up your
old device’s data onto an
SD™ or MMC™ card, and
then transfer the data to
your Treo. We do not
recommend this method
because any incompatible
applications are also
transferred to your Treo.
