Where to Begin?
While this Guide offers lots of information, there is very little you actually need to read to get
started. The first thing to realize is that Phone Amego works with many kinds of phones and
software. Once you become a little familiar with the idea of telephone integration, you can focus
in on the kind of phone you actually have (Bluetooth, landline, or VoIP) and the type of software
you would like to integrate with your phone (Address Book, Daylite, Sales Force, call records,
etc.).
