the next time you perform a HotSync operation.

a copy of the deleted file
to your computer.
Tap OK.
Over time, as you use Date Book and To Do List, you'll accumulate records that are no
longer useful. For example, events that occurred months ago remain in Date Book,
and completed To Do List items remain in the list.
Outdated records take up memory on your handheld, so it is a good idea to remove
them by using Purge. If you think Date Book or To Do List records might prove useful
later, you can purge them from your handheld and save them in an archive file.
Purging is also available in Mail. See "Deleting email items" on page 193 for more
information.
Purging is not available in Address Book or Memo Pad; delete outdated records from
these two applications manually.
