Your Palm
Pre™ Plus phone puts Palm's new multitasking, gesture-based
®
operating system, the Palm
®
device with a keyboard that you can slide out whenever you need it. Here
are a few highlights of your new phone.
Gestures:
On your Pre Plus phone, you make calls, move around, and
manage your applications and info by making simple gestures either on the
touchscreen or in the gesture area directly beneath the screen. For more
information, see
Use gestures: tap, swipe, drag, flick,
palm.com/support
to see animations that demonstrate these gestures. The
introductory piece in your Pre Plus phone's box has a detachable gesture
guide to put in a pocket and consult when you need to—you won't need it
very long.
Multitasking:
You can have many applications open at once and easily
move among them. Go to the Launcher to open apps. See the lineup of your
open apps in Card view. Tap an app to bring it into the foreground and work
with it. For more information, see
email or surf the web while on a call.
The Palm
Synergy™ feature:

Plus phone displays information from several sources in a single view, so you
can access your info quickly, without having to remember where you stored
it.

For example, suppose you have a Google account for personal email,
contacts, and calendar events, and an Exchange account for your corporate
email, contacts, and events. The Email, Contacts, and Calendar applications
on your Pre Plus phone all provide a kind of view in which you can see
information from both of those accounts in one place—but even though the
information is brought into one view, the sources of that information are
kept separate. For more information, read about linked contacts, layered
calendars, and the single inbox for your email in Contacts, Calendar, and
Email.

list of online accounts that you can set up on your phone and for information about
the behavior of these accounts.
Thanks also to the Synergy feature, in the Messaging application, all your
conversations with the same person are grouped together in one chat-style
view. If you start an IM chat with Ed, for example, you can continue the
same conversation when Ed signs out of IM by sending him a text
message—and you can see it all in the same view. For more information, see
Messaging.
Universal search:
Need to call Ed? Just slide out the keyboard and type ed.
If he's listed in your Contacts, you can get his numbers from the search
results. Tap a number and you've made the call. Search works just as fast
when you need to search the web. For more information, see
info and make
calls.
Sync:
Your Pre Plus phone gives you synchronization without a cable. You
can sync with online services that Palm has partnered with so that you can
store and sync your info in online accounts. You can access your data even
when you are not able to make a connection to the web because a copy of
your data is stored on the device.
Your Palm profile:
When you set up your phone, you create a Palm profile.
Your profile gives you access to services like automatic updates and
automatic, frequent backups of any of your info that is stored only on your
phone and isn't synchronized with an online account.
