Reassigning Front Panel Buttons
Your Palm organizer has four application buttons on its front panel. These
buttons are used to start, and switch among the four standard Palm organizer
applications: DateBook, Address Book, To Do List, and Memo Pad. Note that
these application buttons are the black push-buttons located along the lower edge
of your Palm organizer (don’t look for these buttons anywhere on the screen
display of your Palm organizer).

Once you have installed the special SmartPad versions of these applications, you
may want to reassign these application buttons so they activate the SmartPad
applications. By reassigning the application buttons, your Palm organizer will
use the extended SmartPad versions, which automatically recognize the
SmartPad.

“beamed” from another Palm organizer, the sender (and/or receiver) must have
different Palm applications activated.

switch to a different SmartPad application, such as eAddress. Once you have
reassigned the front panel buttons (as described in the following procedure),
simply press a different front panel button to switch to a different application.
