CHAPTER 18

Customizing Your Handheld

Selecting formats for dates, times, and numbers

Would you rather see the time displayed in a 24-hour format, or dates that begin with the month
or year? Use the Formats Preferences screen to change these settings and to apply them to all the
applications on your handheld.

You can quickly choose the preset formats based on geographic regions where you might use
your handheld. For example, in the United Kingdom, time often is expressed using a 24-hour
clock. In the United States, time is expressed using a 12-hour clock with an AM or PM suffix.
You can use the original preset formats or change them based on your personal preferences.
