Using Info-On-Demand
The Info-On-Demand feature provides you with the ability to request
information such as News, Sports, Stocks, etc. This information is sent to your
communicator (PIC) as a MailBox message. To request information, proceed as
follows.

From the Main menu, press y or z to highlight t Info-On-Demand
and press { to display the topic inbox list.
Press y or z to highlight the desired topic and press { to send your
request.
After you send your request, REQUEST TRANSMITTING displays on
the Status screen.
While the communicator (PIC) retrieves the requested information, the icon
for the corresponding topic flashes. When the request is complete, the topic
icon stops flashing (or Request Failed is displayed on the Status screen
accompanied by an alert if the request was unsuccessful). If the request was
successfully sent to the system, a message is received (typically within 2-3
minutes). See “Reading Messages” on page 28.
