Frequently Asked Questions about Kyocera's Smartphone
Q: Where is the backlight button located?
The backlight button is located at the top of the phone. It is marked by a lightbulb symbol on
the plastic lens. The backlight button is also the location of the IR port, where you perform
the beaming function.
Simply pressing the backlight button will force the device in and out of sleep mode. Pressing
and holding the button for approximately 2 seconds will turn the backlight on or off.
Q: Can I receive e-mail on Kyocera's smartphone?
Yes. The phone comes with the Eudora
e-mail client that is based on a Palm application. Details vary on how to set up individual
e-mail applications, but certain basic requirements apply.
You need:
1. Data services from the carrier.
2. An ISP or other service that supports dial-in services to its network.
3. User information for your e-mail account, including username, password, incoming and
outgoing mail servers. Your ISP or network administrator can provide this information.
Q: Does Kyocera's smartphone support Palm OS
applications?
Yes. Web clippings were originally created for use on the Palm
for getting snippets of information from the Web. Specifically, web clippings are small
applications that point to a single location on the Web. For example, there is a web
clipping for checking traffic, one for shopping at Amazon.com
barnesandnoble.com (or other shopping portals), one to access your stock accounts, and
sm
so on. Kyocera's smartphone fully supports this feature; you simply make a wireless data
connection and then use the web clipping applications.

Kyocera's smartphone is manufactured by Kyocera Wireless Corp. We offer full support for
the device, including its Palm software and phone aspects. If you have any problems with
the phone, we recommend contacting your phone service provider. The service provider

Q: Is Kyocera's smartphone upgradable? (RAM)
The 8-MB physical memory of the phone itself cannot be upgraded. The phone software has the
capability of being upgraded should new software become available. Please note that software
upgrades come only from Kyocera Wireless Corp. Software upgrades from Palm will not work
on Kyocera's smartphone and should not be used.
Q: Can I work on my Palm handheld and talk on Kyocera's
smartphone at the same time?
Yes. Using either the headset or the speakerphone, you can use the Palm features of the
phone, such as setting up Date Book events or adding Address Book entries. Also, you can
simply pause your conversation for a moment as you add a memo or other item.
Q: What is the battery life of Kyocera's smartphone and the
Palm handheld?
The CDMA talk time of Kyocera's smartphone is up to 5 hours, depending on a variety of
factors including usage patterns, network parameters and device settings.
The CDMA standby time of Kyocera's smartphone is up to 180 hours, depending on the
same factors as CDMA talk time.
Because Kyocera's smartphone and the Palm handheld share the same battery, the battery
life of the Palm device is dependent on the battery life of Kyocera's smartphone. Presuming
Kyocera's smartphone is off, you can anticipate a usage time of over 1 month. If the battery
runs out, the Palm is still usable for several days, and a backup battery will maintain your data
for several days even after the main battery has completely died. The most reliable method
of maintaining your data is to back it up on a regular basis by synchronization.
Q: What is SSL encryption?
SSL is an acronym for Secure Sockets Layer, the leading security protocol on the Internet.
SSL is usually used on Web sites where financial transactions are being done. Stock-exchange
sites and shopping sites are the most common. When you input your credit card number at a
site that supports SSL, you can have a greater degree of confidence that your information is
secure and will not be intercepted by any dishonest parties. Kyocera's smartphone supports
SSL-enabled browsers, such as WebClient and Browse-it.
