Acknowledgments

Customers tell us they love our handhelds but feel like they're only scratching the surface of what can be done. Now You Know Tungsten E begins where that handheld's manual ends. This is a source book and an idea book, and the tips and techniques within have been customized expressly for the Tungsten E handheld.

The degree to which this book succeeds is due to the hard work of the many people listed here. Special thanks, however, must go to Arthur Manzi of palmOne, Inc. for his careful eye, thorough readings , and the many tips and suggestions he offered for improving this book.

Tungsten E

Does this book replace my manual?

Now You Know Tungsten E goes beyond the standard documentation to delve into all the things you can do with your handheld. Along the way, it highlights key techniques that are also discussed in the Handbook, but it shouldn't be considered a substitute. See the next page to learn how to get your Tungsten E Handbook.

The top of every left-hand page has a header that shows the section name, followed by an arrow and the chapter number and name . Use the headers to quickly find features you're curious about.


Icons to look for

Icons in the margins help you find the items discussed on the pages. All icons refer to your handheld except for the two shown above: Palm Desktop for Windows (left) and for Macintosh (right).
