ViewSonic Pocket PC V35 69
8 Getting Connected
Using infrared (IR), you use your V35 to exchange information (such as
contacts and appointments) with other mobile devices as well as your PC. (For
more information, see “Using Microsoft ActiveSync” in Chapter 4.) You have the
following connection options:
• Use the infrared (IR) port on the V35 to exchange (send/receive) files with
another mobile device. If this is the method you want to use, see the
“Transferring Information Using Infrared” section on this page.
• Connect to your PC to synchronize remotely. Once your V35 is connected to
your PC, you can synchronize information such as your Pocket Outlook
Information. If this is the method you want to use, see ActiveSync Help on
your PC or Connections Help on the V35.
