Using the Stylus
Your iPAQ Pocket PC comes with a stylus that you should use to 
tap or write on your screen.
ÄCAUTION: To prevent damage to your iPAQ Pocket PC screen, 
never use any device other than the stylus that comes with the 
Pocket PC or an approved replacement to tap or write on the 
screen. If you lose or break your stylus, you can order extras at 
www.hp.com/products/pocketpc/options.
You can perform three basic actions using the stylus:
Ta p—Lightly touch the screen to select or open an item. Lift the 
stylus after you tap an item. Tapping is equivalent to clicking an 
item with the mouse on your personal computer.
Drag—Place the point of the stylus on the screen and drag an 
item across the screen without lifting the stylus until you have 
completed the selection. Dragging is equivalent to pressing the 
Shift key while dragging your personal computer mouse with the 
mouse button pressed.
Tap and hold—Hold the stylus pointer on an item for a short 
time until a menu displays. Tapping and holding is equivalent to 
right-clicking your personal computer mouse button. When you 
tap and hold, a circle of red dots appears around the stylus to 
indicate that the menu will soon pop up.
