Introducing Bluetooth

Bluetooth is a short-range wireless communications technology. Devices

with Bluetooth capabilities can exchange information over a distance of

about 10 meters (30 feet) without requiring a physical connection.

Unlike infrared, you do not need to line up the devices to beam information

with Bluetooth. The devices only need to be within a range of about 10

meters. You can even beam information to a device in a different room, as

long as it is within the specified range.

NOTE If you experienced problems using Bluetooth

in a landscape

display orientation, revert to portrait. See page 2-19 for details.

The Bluetooth technology allows your Pocket PC to:

• Locate other Bluetooth devices within the vicinity

• Discover the services that those devices offer

• Connect to, use, and disconnect from those services

• Enable or disable individual services

• Use security features including authentication, authorization, and

encryption
