This chapter explains how to use Microsoft Pocket Internet Explorer on your Intermec

Model 70 Pocket PC.

Setting Up Pocket Internet Explorer

Use Pocket Internet Explorer to view Web pages in either of these ways:

•During synchronization, download your favorite links, mobile favorites, and mobile

channels that are stored in the Mobile Favorites subfolder in Internet Explorer on

the desktop computer to your Pocket PC.

•Connect to an Internet service provider (ISP) or network and browse the Web. To

do this, you need to create the connection, as described in Chapter 6, “Getting

Connected.”

To open Pocket Internet Explorer

•Tap and then Internet Explorer.

About the Mobile Favorites Folder

Only links stored in the Mobile Favorites subfolder in the Favorites folder in Internet

Explorer on your desktop computer will be synchronized with your Pocket PC. This

folder was created automatically when you installed ActiveSync. For more information

on synchronization, see the ActiveSync online help on the desktop computer.

During synchronization, the Mobile Favorites folder on your desktop computer is

synchronized with Pocket Internet Explorer on your Pocket PC. Both computers are

updated with changes made to either list each time you synchronize. Note that only the

link is downloaded to your Pocket PC. Unless you mark the link as available offline,

you will need to connect to your ISP or network to view the content.

Creating Mobile Favorites

If you are using Microsoft Internet Explorer 5 on your desktop computer, you can

download mobile favorites. Synchronizing mobile favorites downloads Web content to

your Pocket PC so that you can view Web pages while you are disconnected from your

ISP and desktop computer.
