CHAPTER 4
Using Expansion Features
Your handheld provides an expansion card slot that enables you to add additional 
software applications, memory, and peripherals. You can also use a special kind of 
expansion card that allows you to back up your data when it is inconvenient to 
perform a HotSync
® operation. 
NOTEBattery life may vary depending on the expansion cards used.
Your handheld is also equipped with a universal connector so that you can easily 
attach and use peripheral hardware devices, such as a modem, portable keyboard, 
or a Global Positioning System (GPS) receiver. For information about the 
installation and operation of hardware devices, please refer to the documentation 
that accompanies each device. 
Inserting an expansion card
1.Hold your handheld securely.
2.Insert the card into the expansion card slot, following the direction indicated by 
the expansion card icon on the back panel of your handheld.
3.Use your thumb to push the card into the expansion slot. When you feel the card 
lock and hear the audible system sound (if sound is on), the card is properly 
seated within the slot.
