Chapter 1 Introduction
Overview
The Socket Digital Phone Card (DPC) allows you to
connect your data-capable mobile phone to a Windows–
based mobile computer or Apple PowerBook. Now you
can check email, browse the web, connect to your office
network and synchronize files— all wirelessly!
When you use the Digital Phone Card, you don’t need a modem, because
your data-capable mobile phone simulates one. You can use the Digital
Phone Card with any application that you use with a regular modem, such as
for email, file transfers or web browsing.
The DPC fits directly into the CompactFlash I/O slot of a Pocket PC,
Pocket PC 2002, HPC 2000, Palm-size PC, Handheld PC Pro, pen tablet, or
Casio Cassiopeia BE-300 Pocket Manager.
With the included CompactFlash-to-PC Card
adapter, you can also use the DPC in the PC Card
slot of a Pocket PC, HPC 2000, Handheld PC Pro,
Windows 9x/Me/2000/XP notebook or Apple
PowerBook.
Your retail box may not completely list all the mobile phones compatible
with your version of the DPC. For a complete, up-to-date listing, please
