Did you know... you can set your NeoPoint phone not to transmit nor receive carrier
wireless signals?
Your NeoPoint phone has a mode that allows it to function solely as a personal
digital assistant (PDA). PDA mode blocks the phone from making or receiving
any type of signal and forwards all calls to voicemail. This allows you to work on
your contacts, schedule and notes in areas where cellular calls are not permitted.
For more information on setting your NeoPoint phone to PDA Mode, refer to
“Changing the Phone Mode” on page 52. Obey all applicable cellular laws.
Did you know... your NeoPoint phone can spell words for you?
Your NeoPoint phone incorporates Tegic’s T9 text input mode which allows you
to minimize typing on the key pad. As you type in a word, the phone starts to give
any combination of key words. You can press the next key (or the zero button) to
show you the next possible word. Tegic is used to facilitate the storing of contact
numbers, notes etc. For more information on T9, refer to “T9 Mode” on page 14.
Did you know... you can set your NeoPoint phone to guard against accidentally
pressing keys while in your purse or pocket?
Your NeoPoint phone incorporates a feature call Keyguard. Keyguard is different
than locking your phone... it prevents your phone from accidentally pressing
unprotected keys, but is deactivated as soon as you open your flip. For more
information on setting Keyguard, refer to “Enabling Keyguard” on page 51.
Did you know... you can store up to 1000 friends, family, and business names, each
with 17 lines of information in your NeoPoint?
Your NeoPoint phone has a feature called Contacts. Each contact record allows
you to include the first and last names, title, company, five different phone
numbers, e-mail address and web site, address, and finally - additional notes. For
more information on creating a contact, refer to “Creating a New Contact Entry”
on page 58.
