Congratulations on purchasing the Hewlett-Packard Jornada 700 
Series Handheld PC (H/PC), a mobile device powered by the 
Microsoft® Windows® for Handheld PC (H/PC) 2000 operating 
system. The size and capabilities of the HP Jornada H/PC let you 
keep your most important business and personal information 
current and close at hand. Your HP Jornada supports the latest 
version of Microsoft Pocket Outlook, so you can check e-mail and 
manage your appointments and contacts while on the road. Your 
HP Jornada is also the perfect companion to your desktop or 
notebook PC. It allows you to take vital business data and 
documents with you when away from the office, then easily 
transfer updated information back to your PC upon return. A 
powerful, reliable, mobile business partner, HP Jornada offers 
you the highest quality in performance and battery life as well as 
rich programs and utilities designed by Hewlett-Packard. 
If you are familiar with Microsoft Windows products and 
notebook PCs, you will notice that your HP Jornada has many of 
the same characteristics, making it easy for you to be productive 
quickly.   
In this chapter, you will find: 
  An overview of this User’s Guide and other sources of help and 
information 
  A list and brief descriptions of the built-in applications, 
including MS Windows for H/PC 2000 software and special HP 
applications 
  An introduction to HP Jornada features and a description of 
the advantages of using the HP Jornada

Learning about HP Jornada
Learning about HP JornadaLearning about HP Jornada Learning about HP Jornada 
    
Hewlett-Packard has taken mobile computing to new levels of 
compatibility and convenience. With HP Jornada, you will notice 
many benefits not found in other, similar computers.  For 
example, you can:  
· Move the data you already have on an older palmtop or 
handheld PC to your HP Jornada. You can transfer 
information from older Windows CE devices and even some 
non-Windows CE devices. (See the Transferring PIM data 
from older palmtop PCs section in  
Appendix B.) 
· Use e-mail without a modem. Conveniently send e-mail  
automatically when you synchronize with your desktop PC. 
(See the Synchronizing data section in chapter 3.) 
· Take more data with you. A desktop Microsoft Word file may 
take up to 85 percent less space on your HP Jornada. (See 
the Transferring files section in chapter 3.) 
· Send voice messages to friends and colleagues—even those 
who do not have H/PC 2000 devices. You can save voice  
						

							 Chapter 1 | Welcome | 5 
  
messages in the compatible Wave audio format.  (See the 
Recording voice memos section in chapter 4.)  
· Keep Word, Access, and Excel files stored at work and at 
home synchronized. Update any file in any location, and once 
you synchronize, the file will be updated in every place it is 
stored.  (See the Synchronizing data section in chapter 3.) 
· Read online news and information while offline, or download 
Web pages for viewing later.  (See the Browsing the Web 
section in Chapter 6.) 
· Work any time, any place, with up to 9 hours of battery life. 
(See the Managing battery power section in chapter 7.) 
· Synchronize mail messages, contacts, appointments, and 
tasks with your desktop or notebook PC in just a few steps.  
(See the Synchronizing data section in chapter 3.) 
· Carry your HP Jornada with you. The HP Jornada weighs 
only 510 g (1.1 lb.), including batteries.  
· Expand your functionality with PC Card accessories.  
(See the Accessories section in chapter 7.) 
HP Jornada is your mobile computing companion. Several 
valuable features allow you to stay organized and in touch while 
you are on the road. For instance: 
· The HP Jornada viewer application displays PIM data 
(contacts, calendar, and tasks) at a glance, allowing you to 
navigate to or view the data you need immediately. You 
can even view notes attached to appointments. 
 
· The HP Jornada dialup application leads you through  
the steps required to configure a dial-up connection and  
to access your e-mail and the Web. When you are ready to 
connect, just use the convenient dialup window on your 
HP Jornada desktop. 
 
· The HP Jornada quick pad provides a convenient place to 
jot down notes, names, telephone numbers, and other data 
for short-term storage. Information can be saved in quick 
pad for fast retrieval or sent to the appropriate database 
for long-term storage. 
 
· The HP Jornada backup application can back up and 
restore information to/from an optional CompactFlash

Card or PC Card, safeguarding against loss of data while 
you are on the road—even if power is lost.  
HP Jornada programs 
Your HP Jornada already includes the full suite of software that 
you need to function as a mobile professional. Detailed 
information can be found in later chapters. 
 The programs listed below are pre-installed in ROM, so you 
will never need to reinstall them. 
Microsoft Pocket Office 
On the Start menu, point to Programs, point to Office, and 
then tap one of the following choices. 
 · Pocket Word—Take notes and compose documents, or 
transfer Microsoft Word files from your desktop PC to read 
and review while you are away from your office. 
 · Pocket Excel—View and edit price lists or financial 
forecasts on your HP Jornada, or fill out your expense form 
before you even land at the home office. 
 · Pocket Access—Take database information with you  
on the road, and fill in custom forms to update Access 
databases when you return to your office. 
 · Pocket PowerPoint—Create professional presentations 
on your desktop, and then take them with you to show on 
your HP Jornada. Or, use a PC Card VGA adapter 
(F1252A) to project them to an external monitor or VGA 
projector. 
Microsoft Pocket Outlook 
On the Start menu, point to Programs, point to Pocket 
Outlook, and then tap one of the following choices. 
 · Calendar—Never miss a meeting. Keep track of 
important dates and events or manage your schedule. 
 · Contacts—Take your address book with you so that you 
always have access to names, addresses, and telephone 
numbers. If you update your HP Jornada contacts list, just 
synchronize with your desktop PC and your contacts will
