Additional connectivity
If your unit has CF and SDIO slots, it can support several additional
kinds of connections. If your unit does not have embedded
Bluetooth or 802.11, CF or SDIO cards can be purchased to add the
functionality. The following connectivity options are also possible:
Modem: The unit supports dial-up connections to an Internet
Service Provider and sending and receiving e-mail with file
attachments. You will need to purchase an external modem, CF
modem, or SDIO modem.
Web-enabled cell phones: The unit can connect to the Internet via
Bluetooth and Web-enabled cell phones that are compatible with
Windows Mobile 5.0 devices. USB phone connections are not
supported. Refer to your phone service provider for more
information on establishing Internet connections via your cell phone.
VPN: The unit includes support for Virtual Private Network (VPN)
connections. Used together with a connection to the Internet, a VPN
connection allows you to browse network files from a remote site
and also supports remote synchronization with your PC via
ActiveSync. Note that the network you access must be configured
to allow VPN connections.
For more information on creating these connections, see the web
site listed under reference materials on the cover of this manual.
Installing additional software on your unit
The unit can run third-party software designed for Microsoft
Windows Mobile 5.0. However, not all Windows Mobile third-party
programs are screen-rotation-aware and therefore may not run
properly in a landscape environment. To allow these programs to
run correctly, the screen orientation can be changed in Settings /
System / Screen.
Most third-party software is installed by running a setup program on
the PC while the unit is connected with ActiveSync. Follow the
setup instructions that came with your software. If prompted by the
installation wizard, perform a reset to complete the installation.
