online account<br />
The <strong>Palm</strong> ® Synergy TM feature makes it easy to synchronize all data from an<br />
online account. An online account is a web-based or server-based location<br />
where you keep contacts and/or calendar information, such as Google or<br />
Exchange. (Such web-based or server-based accounts are sometimes talked<br />
about as being “in the cloud.”) You can access the info in those accounts in<br />
the Contacts and Calendar applications on your phone. You can also set up<br />
your phone to download contacts from online accounts such as Facebook,<br />
and to post photos to online accounts such as Facebook or Photobucket.<br />
