CHAPTER 22

Tip

For best results when beaming, the devices should be between 4 and 39 inches (10 centimeters and one meter) apart, and there should be a clear path between them.

Tip

Beaming works best for smaller items. If you have larger items, you can use

Bluetooth® wireless technology. Expansion

cards are convenient for sharing very large items.
