Getting Connected 93

6.4 Using Bluetooth

Bluetooth is a short-range wireless communications technology. Devices

with Bluetooth capabilities can exchange information within a distance

of about 10 meters without requiring a physical connection. You can even

beam information to a device in a different room, as long as it is within the

Bluetooth signal coverage range.

Bluetooth can be used in the following ways:

• Beam information, such as ﬁles, appointments, tasks, and contact

cards, between devices that have Bluetooth capabilities.

• Synchronize information between your device and computer via

Bluetooth.

• Use a Bluetooth-enabled headset (or other Bluetooth-enabled hands-

free device, such as a car kit) with your device for hands-free phone

conversations.

• Use a Bluetooth service. Once you connect to another device or

computer using Bluetooth, you can locate and use any of the services

available on that device.

• Create a connection between your device and another Bluetooth-

enabled phone to use that phone as a modem.

Note Normally, you will need another phone as a modem only if your Pocket PC

device has no integrated phone capability.

Bluetooth modes

Bluetooth on your device operates in three different modes:

• On. Bluetooth is turned on. Your device can detect other Bluetooth-

enabled devices, but not vice versa.

• Off. Bluetooth is turned oﬀ. In this mode, you can neither send

nor receive information using Bluetooth. You might want to turn

Bluetooth oﬀ at times in order to conserve battery power, or in

situations where using a wireless device is prohibited, such as on

board an aircraft and in hospitals.

• Visible. Bluetooth is turned on, and all other Bluetooth-enabled

devices can detect your device.
