36 HP Jornada 680/680e User’s Guide

Establishing a partnership

After you set up Windows CE Services on your desktop PC, you are prompted to establish a partnership between your desktop PC and your HP Jornada. The partnership enables your desktop PC to recognize your HP Jornada when transferring files or synchronizing data.

You can establish partnerships between your HP Jornada and up to two desktop PCs, for example, your home PC and your office PC. If you regularly synchronize your

HP Jornada with both desktop PCs, you can ensure that important files, contacts, and calendar information are always up-to-date and identical on both desktop PCs, as well as on your HP Jornada.

If your HP Jornada has more than one desktop PC partner, you cannot synchronize e-mail messages.

A single desktop PC can partner with any number of H/PCs or palmtop PCs. This is useful if you have more than one Windows CE device, or if several mobile professionals share a single desktop PC.
