    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.

    ■Exchange SMS messages: Use a Global System for Mobile Communications 
    (GSM) phone carrier service to send and receive short text messages. See 
    Chapter 15 for more information.
    ■Use Palm™ Dialer to dial numbers on your phone: Send telephone numbers from 
    your handheld to your GSM mobile phone. 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. To use this feature, your mobile phone service must include 
    data services. See“Conducting modem HotSync operations” in Chapter 21 for 
    additional information.
    A GSM mobile phone, GSM network service, data service, high-speed wireless 
    data service, and an ISP account with a dial-up connection are not included with 
    your handheld.
    Setting up a phone connection
    To set up a phone connection, you must configure connection information on your 
    handheld. If you want to connect to the Internet and send and receive e-mail, you 
    must also configure the network service settings. The Phone Link and Phone Link 
    Updater applications guide you through this process. For information on how to 
    enter or modify these settings manually, see“Setting Communication Preferences” 
    in Chapter 22 and see“Network Preferences” in Chapter 22.
    The instructions in this section assume that you already installed the desktop 
    software that came with your handheld and performed at least one HotSync 
    operation. 
    To configure a phone connection on your handheld:
    1.If you are establishing a Bluetooth connection with a phone, you must first turn 
    on Bluetooth communication and turn on the Discoverable setting on your 
    handheld. See“Bluetooth Preferences” in Chapter 22 for instructions.

    is stored on both devices. You must enter the same passkey on both your 
    handheld and phone. If Phone Link is unable to validate the same passkey on 
    both your handheld and your phone, an error message appears and you are 
    given the option to try connecting again. If you need additional information 
    about connecting your phone, refer to the Phone Pairing Handbook at
