ABOUT THIS BOOK

This book is organized into chapters that each cover roughly one application or topic area of the BlackBerry software. While there are some interrelated portions, feel free to skip ahead to a chapter that you are particularly interested in, or maybe a specific topic you just have a question about.

If you have never used a BlackBerry handheld before, please make sure that you read Chapter 2, "Interacting with Your BlackBerry Handheld," before any of the chapters on the handheld software. The rest of the book will use phrases such as "Select the field Name" or "Click the New menu item," and Chapter 2 lays the foundation on how to perform these common operations.
