Your handheld can be connected to a GSM mobile phone to give you wireless access to
email and the Internet. Depending on the type and model of your phone, your
handheld can communicate using the infrared port, or a cable. Here are a few
guidelines:
• You must have digital services already activated on your phone.
• Your phone must have a driver.
• Your phone must have an enabled infrared capability that complies with the
IrDA standard, or you must purchase a cable designed for your phone model.
Communicating with your mobile phone
Once you have set up your wireless account, you are ready to set up a connection to
your GSM mobile phone. Your phone can then be used to connect to the Internet
wirelessly, similar to a modem. In addition, you can manage the data on your mobile
phone using your handheld. These include:
• Access and exchange phone book records between your handheld and your
mobile phone
• Use your handheld to look up and dial numbers
• Check the status of your phone, signal strength, and battery level.
