Handspring Visor Visor Pro User manual

The Handspring Visor Pro is an infinitely expandable handheld with 16 MB of
memory. This powerful, rechargeable handheld has plenty of room for just about all
your business and personal needs – from databases and documents to photos and games.
Plus, with the unique Springboard™expansion slot, you can add even more
functionality, such as a digital camera, wireless modem or PowerPoint®presenter.
Best of all, with no drivers to load, it’s just plug-and-play – snap in a module and
away you go.
Running the popular Palm OS®, Visor Pro does everything a Palm™organiser does
and more. In addition to an address book, to do list and memo pad, there are new
features like Fast Lookup, an enhanced date book, advanced calculator and world clock,
with thousands of other Palm-compatible applications available to download. What’s
more, you can transfer all your existing Palm organiser data with just one touch, and
even beam information or programs to other Palm users.
To top it off, the USB connection makes synchronising with your desktop computer
really fast – and really easy. You can back up, update or exchange information between
your Visor Pro handheld and desktop computer using HotSync®technology via the
USB charging cradle supplied.
Visor Pro is not just fast and powerful, it also offers the convenience of a
rechargeable battery that charges in the HotSync cradle. It comes in one
smart colour – silver.
