Notes
Notes helps you quickly capture your ideas, notes, and
thoughts. You can create a note using written and typed
text and drawings. You can also share your notes with
others through e-mail and synchronization with your PC.
Tasks
Use Tasks to keep track of things you need to do. You can
use categories to help organize tasks and set reminders
for them. If you use Outlook on your PC, you can
synchronize tasks between the Recon and the PC.
Companion Programs
Your Recon comes with the following programs installed. Open the
program and then tap Start / Help for instructions on using the
various programs.
Excel
You can use Pocket Excel much the same way you use
Excel on your PC. Use split panes to view different parts
of a worksheet at the same time. You can also use freeze
panes to keep row and column labels or other data visible
as you scroll through a sheet.
Excel fi les (.xls) and templates (.xlt) created in Excel
version 5.0/95 or later on the PC are converted to Pocket
Excel workbook (.pxl) or template (.pxt) fi les when
they are synchronized or copied to the Recon or when
you open an e-mail message with an Excel fi le as an
attachment. Pocket Excel workbooks are converted to
Excel workbooks when they’re synchronized or copied
to the PC. During conversion, some formatting attributes
may be changed or lost. For more information, see
ActiveSync Help on the PC.
