CHAPTER 1 Setting Up Your Handheld and Your Computer
Step 4: Connecting your handheld to your computer

Synchronizing simply means that any information you enter in one place (your handheld or
computer) is automatically updated in the other.
Be sure to synchronize your information at least once a day so that you always
have an up-to-date backup copy of important information.
