Getting Connected

You can use your device to exchange information with other mobile devices as well as your computer, a network, or the Internet. You have the following connection options:

•Use the infrared (IR) port on your device to send and receive files between two devices. If this is the method you want to use, see the fol- lowing section “Transfer Items Using Infrared.”

•Connect to your Internet account provider (ISP). Once connected, you can send and receive email messages by using Inbox and view Web or WAP pages by using Microsoft® Pocket Internet Explorer. The com- munication software for creating an ISP connection is already installed on your device. Your account provider will provide software needed to install other accounts, such as paging and fax accounts. If this is the method you want to use, see “Connect to an Internet Account Pro- vider” later in this chapter.

•Connect to the network at your company or organization where you work. Once connected, you can send and receive email messages by using Inbox, view Web or WAP pages by using Pocket Internet Explorer, and synchronize with your computer. If this is the method you want to use, see "Connect to Work" on page 102.

•Connect to your computer to synchronize remotely. Once connected, you can synchronize information such as your Pocket Outlook infor- mation. If this is the method you want to use, see ActiveSync Help on your computer or Connections Help on the device.
