and your HP Jornada. The partnership enables your desktop PC
to recognize your HP Jornada when transferring files or
synchronizing data.
You can establish partnerships between your HP Jornada and up
to two desktop PCs; for example, your home PC and your office
PC. If you regularly synchronize your HP Jornada with both
desktop PCs, you can ensure that important files, contacts, and
calendar information are always up-to-date and identical on both
desktop PCs, as well as on your HP Jornada.
Although you can establish partnerships with two desktop
PCs, you can synchronize e-mail messages with only one
desktop PC.
A single desktop PC can partner with many H/PCs or palmtop
PCs. This is useful if you have more than one MS Windows for
H/PC 2000 device, or if several mobile professionals share a
single desktop PC.
