    Default WM6 - How do U turn the Phone OFF?

    Is there a different method of turning the phone OFF in WM6?

    If I press and hold the Red Power button, nothing happens.

    Also, anyone know where to download a User Guide/Manual for WM6?
    Couldn't find one on the MS site...

    hmmm... Works Now

    I went into the settings --> connections and "manually" turned the phone OFF. then after that, I was able to turn the phone ON using the red button.
    Then...I was able to use the red button to turn the phone OFF and ON as usual.

    Not sure why it wouldn't before. It was the first time I tried turning the phone off with the red button since I upgraded to WM6.

    Any help on the User Manual would be great.

    Microsoft doesn't have PALM user guides. Have to check Palm.

    There's one on this page:

    thats strange I use the green button and my devices wakes up and I either stlus the menu button ot press it and the then go to dial pad or call log and dial and shut off with the red button. Sometimes i use the red button to wake up and then center button on the 5way to unlock.

    WHILE IN STANDBY
    Either the red or green button will wake your device up from standby.

    WHILE IN AN APPLICATION
    Pressing the red button will minimize all applications. Pressing the green button will bring you back to the Today screen. (Not sure why this is differentiated in the manual as the end result is the same.)

    Holding the red button for a couple seconds will turn the phone radio off or on.

    While I'm thinking about it, some of the keyboard shortcuts kick butt.

    One of my all time favorites:

    Keyguard shortcut: Option + End - Locks the screen and keyboard. Since I have a BT headset, I use this while on a call so I can slip my treo in my pocket without fear of buttons on the keyboard or screen being mashed.
