Mobile channels
Mobile channels are sites you subscribe to on your desktop PC. They are
stored in the Channels subfolder in the Mobile Favorites folder of your
Microsoft Internet Explorer folder and are downloaded to your HP Jornada
during synchronization. To see a list of mobile channels you can subscribe to
at no fee, visit the Windows CE Mobile Channel List Web page at
www.microsoft.com/windowsce/channels
.
While a channel Web page is displayed, click the Add Mobile Channel button,
and then select Make available offline to download the channel to your
desktop PC. The mobile channel will be transferred to your device the next
time you synchronize.
To view channels
1. Tap to display your list of favorites.
2. Tap the channel you want to view.
Internet Explorer displays the page that was downloaded the last time you
synchronized with your desktop PC. If the page is not stored on your HP
Jornada, the favorite will be dimmed, and you must synchronize with your
desktop PC or connect to the Internet before you can view the page.
Mobile favorites
When you install ActiveSync, a subfolder called Mobile Favorites is created in
the Favorites folder on your desktop PC. You can synchronize the favorites in
this subfolder with the favorites on your HP Jornada. Unless you mark the
favorite link as a mobile favorite, only the link will be downloaded to your
device, and you will need to connect to your ISP or network to view the
content.
