and receive email with image attachments. Other features include a

full-featured phone, personal information management (PIM) appli-

cations, access to a personal Web portal (the “Desktop Interface”),

entertainment applications, a built-in megapixel camera, and a music

player.

For the latest instructions on all the Sidekick applications, open

Device Basics

Opening and Closing the Display

To open the display, press your left thumb on the lower-left corner of the

display and gently push up in a clockwise direction. The display will spring

smoothly into the open position.

Alternatively, use your right index finger to push down gently on the upper-right

corner of the display. The screen will spring into the open position.

The normal operating position of the device is horizontal, with the trackball on the

right, as shown above.

To close the display, reverse the motion to pivot the display counter-clockwise and

snap it into the closed position.

Do not open or close the display in the wrong direction as this may damage your

device. Stop if you feel any resistance; the display should spring smoothly into

position. Protect the display from scratches by always using the carrying case to
