PALM DESKTOP SOFTWARE ™ Palm Desktop software includes the same main applications as your iQue Memo Pad and desktop e-mail connectivity. You can use the HotSync between your handheld and your computer. It’ s a good idea to frequently back up your data in case something happens to the data on your iQue handheld. Changes you make on your iQue handheld or Palm Desktop software appear in both places after you synchronize.
™ you already own Palm Powered device, Garmin recommends that you install the version of Palm Desktop Software that comes with your new handheld into the same folder as your current Palm Desktop software. All of your data is preserved when you install the new version in the same folder as the previous version.
To import data from your old Palm 1. Open the Palm Desktop and select the user name for your old handheld. ™ 2. Open the Date Book, and select Export in the File Menu. This will export your old Date Book information to an archive file and save it on your computer.
PIM, called a conduit. Conduits allow you to synchronize data between your handheld and a PIM instead of the Palm Desktop.

Chapter 2: Entering Data in your iQue 3200 Handheld You can enter data into your iQue handheld by using the on-screen keyboard, writing with the stylus in the text input area, using an external keyboard, or by importing data from another application.
Entering Data: Graffiti ® ENTERING DATA USING GRAFFITI 2 HANDWRITING SOFTWARE You can use Graffiti 2 strokes to create letters, numbers, punctuation, and symbols. The Graffiti 2 writing strokes include all letters, numbers, and symbols found on a standard keyboard. Learning to Write Graffiti 2 Characters With only a few minutes of practice, you’ll find it easy to enter accurate text and numbers using Graffiti 2 writing strokes.
General Guidelines for Graffiti 2 Writing Follow these guidelines to learn and use Graffiti 2 writing strokes successfully: • To achieve 100% accuracy, practice drawing characters exactly as they appear in the tables later in this chapter. • The heavy dot on each shape indicates where to start the stroke. Some characters have similar shapes, but different starting and ending points.
Entering Data: Graffiti ® To write Graffiti 2 letters: 1. Tap the screen where you want to write text, for example, on a line next to a time in the Date Book. NOTE: A blinking cursor must appear on-screen above the Graffiti 2 writing area before you can begin writing text.
The Graffiti 2 Alphabet Draw Graffiti 2 letters according to the following alphabet. Writing Capital Letters Graffiti 2 writing automatically capitalizes the first letter of a new record or sentence. To write additional capital letters, use the same character stroke used for a lowercase letter, but write across the division line. Writing Numbers To write numbers using Graffiti 2 strokes, draw in the right side of the text input area.
Page 36
Entering Data: Graffiti ® Writing Accent Marks When writing letters with accent marks, first write the letter stroke on the left side (or in the center for uppercase letters) of the input area. Then quickly write the accent stroke on the right side of the input area. The accent strokes appear in the following illustration.
Using Graffiti 2 Gestures Gestures are editing commands, such as cut, paste, and the ShortCut command which will be explained in the next section.
