Using Palm
Dialer
Palm™ Dialer is a fast and simple way to use your handheld to dial a
telephone number on your mobile phone. The Palm Dialer also allows you
to speed dial frequently called numbers and log recently called numbers.
Dialer is a good way to dial phone numbers that are not listed in Address Book. To
dial numbers in Address Book, use Quick Connect. For more information,
see “Making connections from Address Book” in Chapter 5.
IMPORTANT Your mobile phone plan must be a Global System for Mobile
Communications (GSM) phone to use Palm Dialer.
To open Palm Dialer:
1. Tap the Home icon .
2. Tap the Palm Dialer icon .
TIP The Buttons Preferences screen enables you to assign Palm Dialer to the
Favorite icon or to one of the application buttons on the front of the handheld. For
more information, see “Buttons Preferences” in Chapter 22. Once Palm Dialer is
assigned, pressing the icon or button opens the Palm Dialer application at the Speed
Dial screen (see “Dialing a speed dial entry” later in this chapter).
Configuring phone preferences and connecting to your mobile phone
You need to configure the phone preferences of your handheld and connect your
handheld to your mobile phone before you use Palm Dialer.
For more information on configuring your phone preferences, see Chapter 22. For
more information on connecting your handheld to your mobile phone, see “Setting
