Pocket Word works with Microsoft Word on your desktop computer to give you access to

documents from your desktop computer to your terminal. Synchronize documents between
your desktop computer and your PPT 2800 so that you have the most up-to-date
information in both locations.
To create a new document in Pocket Word, such as a letter, meeting minutes, or a trip
report, tap , Programs, Pocket Word, then New. A blank document appears. Or, if
you've selected a template for new documents in the Options dialog box, that template
appears with appropriate formatting applied. You can open only one document at a time;
when you open a second document, you'll be asked to save the first. You can save a
document in a variety of formats, including Pocket Word (.psw), Rich Text Format (.rtf), and
Plain Text (.txt).
