CHAPTER 1
Setting Up Your Handheld
This chapter explains how to charge and set up your handheld, install
Palm™ Desktop software on your desktop computer, and perform a HotSync
®
operation. It also lists system requirements.
If you are upgrading from another Palm OS
®
handheld, see “Upgrading from
another Palm OS handheld” later in this chapter.
Step 1: Charge your handheld
Plug the power adapter into an electric outlet, and connect the adapter to your
handheld. Charge the handheld for three hours. Then connect it to the power
adapter for a few minutes each day to recharge the battery to full capacity.
See “Battery considerations” in Appendix A for more information.
