Using the MyPalm mobile portal
The MyPalm application is a mobile portal. Like portals on the Internet that
aggregate other web sites into content channels, the MyPalm mobile portal
aggregates web clipping applications into content channels. Web clipping
applications allow you to access a wide array of Internet information, and view
that information in a format that is easy to read on your handheld screen and
reduces the cost of transmission.
This application is also dynamic. If you selected the option to receive updates to
the MyPalm mobile portal when you installed Palm™ Desktop software, you
automatically receive newer versions of the application when you perform a
HotSync
®
operation with an active Internet connection. Because of this, the
application you see on your handheld may differ slightly from the images of it
shown in this chapter.
NOTE In the event of a hard reset, the original MyPalm mobile portal will be
restored. The next HotSync operation will replace it with a current version.
To access the MyPalm mobile portal application:
Do one of the following:
■ Press the Wireless button on your handheld.
■ Tap the Applications icon and then tap the MyPalm icon .
If the radio is not on, the Radio dialog box appears. Turn on the radio.
Using mobile portal web clipping applications
The content channels of the MyPalm mobile portal host web clipping applications,
grouped together by categories. These channels provide a convenient way to
access information quickly, even without downloading and installing web clipping
applications on your handheld.
