What you should know about your handheld's battery
While your handheld is charging, take a minute to learn about the battery: Whenever you see an alert on the screen warning you that the battery is low, recharge your handheld. Also recharge your handheld if it doesn't turn on when you press the power button. So that your battery doesn't drain completely, your handheld's Wi-Fi functionality and expansion card slot functionality are automatically turned off when you see a "Low battery" warning message, and the Bluetooth® wireless technology and infrared (IR) functionality are turned off when you see a "Critically low battery" warning message. NOTE The memory on your handheld is designed to store your information even if the battery becomes drained to the point that you cannot turn on your handheld. When you recharge your handheld, all your existing information should appear. Conserve battery life by doing any of the following: · Adjust the screen brightness. · Reduce the Auto-off setting. · Use Keylock to prevent your handheld from turning on by accident. · Stop music or video playback when not in use. · Respond to or cancel alerts promptly. · Turn off Bluetooth wireless technology and Wi-Fi functionality when not in use. · If using Auto Sync to automatically retrieve email messages, set the time interval to one hour or less often. · Minimize use of the expansion card slot.

Using user profiles
[ ! ] IMPORTANT Only IT managers may need to use user profiles for their company. If you are not an IT manager, you can skip this section. Suppose your sales organization wants to distribute two dozen handhelds and you want the handhelds to have a common company phone list, set of memos, and set of key applications. You can create a user profile that contains this information, and then install the user profile onto the handhelds before distributing the handhelds to your employees. A user profile does not individualize a handheld with a unique username and user-specific information. When the new user synchronizes for the first time, he or she gives the handheld a unique username. NOTE Handhelds that are synchronized with a user profile must be either new handhelds that have never been synchronized or handhelds that have had their usernames and information removed by a hard reset.
