handheld to display the To Do List.

Tip:
If no To Do List item is currently selected, writing in the 
Graffiti writing area automatically creates a new item.
Setting priority
The priority setting for items lets you arrange the tasks in your To 
Do List according to their importance or urgency. The default 
setting for the To Do List is to arrange items by priority and due 
date, with priority 1 items at the top. If you have a number of items 
in your list, changing an item’s priority setting may move its 
position in the list. 
Note:
When you create a new To Do List item, its priority is 
automatically set to level 1, the highest (most important) 
level. If you select another item first, however, the item you 
create appears beneath the selected item and is given the 
same priority as the selected item.
