5.1 Recording Messages in Notes
In any program where you can write or draw on the screen, you can also quickly capture thoughts,
reminders and phone numbers by recording a message. The recordings will be saved as .wav files in the
\My Documents folder on the Pocket PC Phone.
You can record a message when the Record button appears on the command bar. In Pocket Word, use the
recording function by the View menu.

other source of sound.
2. Hold down the
Voice Recording button. When you hear the
beep, begin your recording.
3. Keep holding down the
Voice Recording button during the
recording.
4. Release the button when you are finished. You will hear two
beeps.

is open. Tap the recording file to play back.

Recording Formats
Your Pocket PC Phone supports several formats for voice notes. The formats vary in both the quality of the
recording and the size of the sound file. When selecting a recording format, you should consider the quality
you need as well as how much storage memory the recording will use on your Pocket PC Phone.
Not all recording formats are compatible with other software or computers. If you will share your record
-
ings with others or transfer a recording to your desktop computer, be sure to choose a recording format that
is supported by the software used to play recordings on the other computer.
To select a recording format, tap
> Settings > Personal > Input
> Options to select a recording format. The list of recording formats
on your Pocket PC Phone indicates the sample rate, whether the
format is stereo or mono and how much storage memory is required
per second of recording. You may need to experiment with different
sample rates and formats to determine which format best suits your
needs.
