while still holding down the Power key. Release both keys and
wait a few moments. A screen will appear warning that if you
continue, this operation will clear the persistent store. Follow the
instructions on the screen ONLY if you want to completely clear
your unit. (GPS applications installed will need to be reinstalled,
but GPS settings will be retained unless the unit is shutdown prior
to performing a Clean Boot.)
Storage memory
Unlike many handhelds which can lose data if they lose power, all
your data is always stored in non-volatile persistent storage
memory. Losing power will not impact saved data or configurations
other than the real time clock. This means that you do not have to
use a RAM backup utility to protect your data. However, you can
lose data by accidentally deleting or overwriting it. As with any
computer system, we recommend that you regularly backup your
data to removable media or to a PC.
Accessing storage memory using file explorer
File Explorer (Start / Programs / File Explorer) lets you browse
the contents of folders on your unit. To easily delete, rename, or
copy an item, touch and hold the item.
NOTE: Unlike PCs, Windows Mobile does not support a Recycle
Bin. Once a file is deleted, it cannot be recovered.
Notification LEDs
At the top of the unit are two LEDs that provide status
information. The LED states are shown in the following table.
