in addition to beaming data, you can also use e-mail or sms communication to send information to and receive information from other devices. the cd-rom that comes with your handheld includes e-mail and telephony/sms applications that you can use to share information with other devices that are enabled with e-mail or sms technology.

    although you can exchange some forms of data with sms communication, you cannot use sms communication to send or receive photos.

    if you only want to share e-mail messages between your handheld and your desktop computer, you simply need to install the e-mail application from the cd-rom. however, if you want to send and receive e-mail messages directly to and from your handheld, you also need an internet service provide (isp) account and a compatible mobile phone or modem accessory (sold separately). for additional information, see chapter 13.

    to use your handheld for sms communication, you need to install the telephony/ sms applications from the cd-rom and you need a global system for mobile communications (gsm) mobile phone (sold separately). for additional information, see the sms handbook on the cd-rom.
