50 Using Phone Features
3.1 Using the Phone
Like a standard mobile phone, you can use your device to make, receive,
and keep track of calls and send SMS/MMS messages. You can also dial
directly from Contacts, and easily copy phonebook entries from your SIM
card to Contacts on your device.
The Phone screen
From the Phone screen, you can access Call History, Speed Dial, and Phone
settings. To open the Phone screen, tap Start > Phone.
Enter your PIN
Most SIM cards are preset with a PIN (personal identification number) that
is provided by your wireless service provider. You need to enter the PIN
whenever you use your device.
1. Enter the preset PIN assigned by your wireless service provider.
2. Tap Enter.
Note If your PIN is entered incorrectly three times, the SIM card will be blocked. If
this happens, you can unblock it with the PUK (PIN Unblocking Key) obtained
from your wireless service provider.

Comm Manager screen, tap the Phone button to turn off the phone
function.
To resume call function, turn on the phone function by tapping the
Phone button again on the Comm Manager screen.

wireless radios on your device, which include the phone function,
Bluetooth, and Wi-Fi.

Wi-Fi disabled..
