Chapter 7: Getting Connected

You can use your Pocket PC Terminal to exchange information with other Windows-powered Pocket PCs as well as your desktop computer, a network, or the Internet. Use the infrared (IR) port on your Pocket PC Terminal to send and receive files between two Pocket PCs. In addition to using a cable, or IR port to connect your Pocket PC Terminal to your desktop computer (as described in Chapter 3), you can connect to your desktop computer while away from the office by using a remote connection. You can also connect your Pocket PC Terminal to a network or the Internet by using a remote connection. You have the following connection options.

Connect to your Internet service provider (ISP). Once connected, you can send and receive e- mail messages by using Inbox and view Web pages by using Pocket Internet Explorer. If this is the method you want to use, see “Connect to an ISP.” The communication software for creating an ISP connection is already installed on your Pocket PC Terminal. Your service provider will provide software needed to install other services, such as paging and fax services.

Connect to the network at your company or organization. Once connected, you can send and receive e-mail messages by using Inbox, view Web pages by using Pocket Internet Explorer, and synchronize with your desktop computer. If this is the method you want to use, see “Connect to Your Network.”

Connect to your desktop computer to synchronize remotely. Once connected, you can synchronize information such as your Pocket Outlook data. If this is the method you want to use, see ActiveSync Help on your desktop computer or Connections Help on the Pocket PC Terminal.
