CAUTION: To avoid damaging your HP iPAQ screen, always use a
stylus or your finger. Never use a pen or any type of metal pointer on
the screen.
To input information to your HP iPAQ, you can use the Thumb
Keyboard, tap the soft keyboard on the screen, or write with the
Letter Recognizer, Microsoft Transcriber, or Block Recognizer in
any application. You can use the stylus to draw and write on the
screen in the Notes application and from any Notes tab in the
Calendar, Contacts, and Tasks applications.
