5.3Synchronizing Using an Infrared Connection

You can use an infrared connection to create a direct connection between your PPC6600 and another mobile device or computer quickly. This method is ideal for quickly switching between multiple devices since there are no cables or adapters to change. When creating a partnership, you must connect using infrared, a cable, or a cradle connection. For more information about synchronizing using an infrared connection or other connection types, see ActiveSync® Help on your computer.
