Phone The application on your Treo smartphone that enables you to make and receive phone calls. PIM (personal information manager) A genre of software that includes applications such as Palm Desktop software, Microsoft Outlook, Lotus Notes, and ACT!. PIMs generally store contacts, schedules, tasks, and memos. Pix Place The companion website for Verizon Wireless picture and video messaging services. Slide A collection of text, pictures, videos, and sounds that are grouped together within a multimedia message. During playback, all the items within a particular slide appear on the same screen. If a multimedia message contains multiple slides, each slide can be viewed separately during playback. SMS (Short Messaging Service) The service that exchanges short text messages almost instantly. Text messages are typically exchanged between mobile phones. These messages can usually include up to 160 characters; messages with more than 160 characters are automatically split into several messages. Treo smartphones can send and receive SMS messages while you are on a voice call. Streaming Technology that enables you to access media content- for example, watch video or listen to an audio program-directly from the Internet on your smartphone without needing to download a file to save on your smartphone. User folder The folder on your computer that contains the information you enter in Palm Desktop software and the information you enter on your smartphone and synchronize with Palm Desktop software.
