149 CHAPTER 14 Using Phone Link Phone Link helps you configure a connection between your handheld and a compatible mobile phone. You can connect to a compatible mobile phone using any of the following methods: ■Bluetooth™ technology: A wireless link that enables you to connect to a Bluetooth mobile phone that is within 10 meters (approximately 30 feet) of your handheld. See“Bluetooth Preferences” in Chapter 22 for additional information on Bluetooth technology. ■Infrared communication: A wireless link that enables you to connect to an infrared-enabled mobile phone within 1 meter (approximately 39 inches) of your handheld. The infrared ports on the two devices must be aligned and the path between the two devices must be clear of obstacles. See“Beaming data” in Chapter 3 for more information about your handheld’s infrared capabilities. ■A serial cable connection: A wire-based link that connects your handheld to a mobile phone with a physical cable. Serial cables and mobile phones that are enabled with infrared or Bluetooth technology are sold separately. What can you do with a phone connection? When your handheld is linked to a mobile phone and your mobile phone carrier supports the required services, you can do the following: ■Access the Internet: Use a high-speed wireless data service—such as General Packet Radio Service (GPRS)—or data services and an Internet service provider (ISP) dial-up account, to access the Internet and browse the web. See Chapter 19 for more information. ■Check and send e-mail: Use a high-speed wireless data service, or data services and a dial-up connection to access your POP3 or IMAP e-mail account. See Chapter 17 for more information. ■Dial telephone numbers from your Address Book: Use the Quick Connect and Tap-to-Connect features with a GSM mobile phone to dial directly from your Address Book. See“Making connections from Address Book” in Chapter 5 for details.

See Chapter 9 for more information. ■Perform wireless HotSync® operations: Use your mobile phone as a modem, and synchronize data with your computer from anywhere within your mobile phone service area.
