Refer to the Bluetooth adapter's documentation for instructions on how to enable
your computer to receive Bluetooth beams.
3.
Now you're ready to beam. On your device, tap and hold an item to beam. The item
can be an appointment in your calendar, a task, a contact card, or a file.
4.
Tap Beam [type of item].
5.
Tap the device name to which you want to send the beam.
6.
If you beamed a calendar, task, or contact item to your computer and it is not
automatically added to Outlook, click File > Import and Export to import it to Microsoft
Outlook on your computer.
To beam information to a Bluetooth-enabled device such as another Pocket PC, create a
Bluetooth partnership then do steps 3 to 5 in the above procedure.
Notes
• If the computer or device you want to beam to cannot be detected by your device, make sure
that it is turned on, discoverable, and within close range (10 meters) of your device.
• The default folder on your computer where beamed items are stored may be
C:\Documents and Settings\your_username\My Documents.
If your computer's Bluetooth adapter was installed using a third-party provided driver, the
folder location where it stores beamed items will be indicated in the Information Exchange
tab of the Bluetooth Configuration utility.
Use another Bluetooth phone as a modem
You can use another phone that has Bluetooth as a modem for your device to browse the
Internet or to transfer other information.
To do this, create a Bluetooth modem connection on your device and then send information
to the phone by using Bluetooth. The phone relays the information over the mobile phone
network and then sends back to your device any information that you had requested over the
connection.
Once you create a modem connection to the Bluetooth phone, you can reuse it whenever
you want to use the phone as a modem. Make sure that Bluetooth is turned on and
discoverable on both your device and the phone, and that the two are within close range.
Note
Normally, you will need another phone as a modem only if your Pocket PC device has no
integrated phone capability.
