Each handheld must have a unique name To prevent unexpected results during HotSync operations, possible data loss, and other complications, each handheld must have a unique name. If you have upgraded, your new handheld and your old handheld have the same user name after completing the upgrade process. We strongly recommend that you perform a hard reset on your old handheld to erase all data from the old handheld and assign it a new user name during the next HotSync operation with the old handheld. See "Performing a hard reset" in Chapter 3 for details. Using Expansion Features Your handheld provides an expansion card slot that accepts Secure Digital (SD) or MultiMedia Card (MMC) expansion cards. These enable you to add additional software applications or memory. You can also use an expansion card to back up your data when it is inconvenient to perform a HotSync operation. Inserting an expansion card 1. Hold your handheld securely. 2. Insert the card into the expansion card slot, following the direction indicated by the expansion card icon on the back panel of your handheld. 3. Use your thumb to push the card into the expansion slot. When you feel the card lock and hear the system sound, the card is properly seated within the slot. Page 8 Get Started
