receive data from other Palm OS handhelds, and to

Turns your PC companion on or off and controls the
backlight feature. If your PC companion is turned off,
pressing the power button turns the PC companion
on and returns you to the last screen you viewed.
If your PC companion is turned on, pressing the
power button turns the unit off. Pressing the power
button for about two seconds turns the backlight on
or off.
The power button also lights steadily when the PC
companion is charging in the cradle and blinks to
indicate alarms. Some applications enable you to set
alarms to remind yourself of events or notes. You can
set preferences for non-audible alarm notification.
See "General preferences" in Chapter 8 for details.
