Using Your Stowaway Portable Keyboard
Things to Remember
Hardware
• If you are typing with the Stowaway keyboard on an uneven surface, such as
your knees, the keyboard will not provide the same robust feel as typing on a
flat, solid surface and may bow slightly in the center. To stabilize the
Stowaway keyboard, place it on a firm, flat object such as a magazine, book,
or briefcase.
• Use your stylus for selecting list items, for making menu selections, and for
giving commands in applications that are not compatible with the keyboard.
(Palm OS does not support cursor control).
• Use the handy stylus wells in the right and left corners of the keyboard to
keep your stylus within reach.
• Make sure that you fully extend the docking mechanism before attaching your
CLIÉ to the Stowaway keyboard to avoid possible hardware damage.
Comfortable Typing
Research suggests that physical discomfort and injury to nerves, tendons, and
muscles may be related to repetitive motion, an improperly set up work area,
incorrect body posture, and poor work habits.
To reduce the risk of injury, follow these precautions:
• Stand, stretch, and move around several times every hour.
• Switch hands while performing tasks. Use shortcut keys to move efficiently
and avoid repetitive, awkward movements.
