• Sending and receiving data via IR
Your phone has the ability to send and receive certain types of data via the infrared port; no additional cable or software is needed.
You can send and receive phone book entries (business cards), and calendar notes via IR. Transmission/reception must be to/from a compatible phone or device (for example, another phone, computer or handheld device).
