5. Batteries

Since the m100 (no longer in production) and m105 /m125 use AAA batteries, it is
prudent to replace the batteries with fresh ones if the Palm

 will be in use for an

extended period of time. The m100 and the m105 models do not support expansion cards.
If the batteries fail on either of these two Palms, the CPLINK program will be lost and
will have to be reloaded from a local PC via HOTSYNC operation.

There are capacitors built into the Palm

 m100 / m105 devices to provide about 1 minute

of sustained power while changing the batteries. This should provide enough time to
change the batteries without having to reload the CPLINK program.
