NOTES, TIPS AND TRICKS

You can only play back audio files on SD audio cards. Playing back files from internal memory is
not supported
At this time, only local playback is enabled. You can not "stream" content over an Internet
connection

If you have an SD card reader, or a Palm application which allows direct access to the SD Card,
you can transfer files manually to the device. Files are detected in the following directories only:

• Root directory (\)

• Subdirectories supported: SD_Audio, RN_Audio, AUDIO

Songs sound best when encoded at higher bitrates. RealAudio files sound good at 64kbps or
higher. Mp3's may sound "watery" or distorted at bitrates less than 128kbps
Some Tungsten T Palm models need a patch for full CD quality sound. This patch is usually
installed by default when you install your RealPlayer for Palm. If sound is very "rolled-off" with
little treble, you may need to re-install this patch. Contact PalmOne for more information or go to
 http://www.palmone.com/us/support/downloads/ to see the latest updates.
You can fit more songs on your SD card by choosing "configure" -> "always convert tracks" from
the Palm plug-in for your desktop PC. The files will be smaller but sound quality may be affected
