CHAPTER 19 Sharing Information
Using the Send command
You can send information from within an application, such as a photo or video, a contact, or an
appointment, to other Palm OS
® handheld users. You can also send a category of information or
even an entire application.
You can use the Send command in many applications to send information wirelessly using one of
the following methods:
• Using the built-in Bluetooth® wireless technology on your handheld
• As an attachment to an e-mail message
• As part of a text message
Sending information from within an application using Bluetooth
technology
You can use your handheld’s built-in Bluetooth technology to send information directly to another
device that includes Bluetooth technology. You must be within range of the receiving device to
send information using Bluetooth technology. The maximum range is approximately 25–30 feet
(8–10 meters); however, the shorter the range, the more quickly and accurately you can send
information.
Before You Begin [ ! ]
You must complete all the
prerequisites for the
messaging application.
To use your handheld’s
built-in Bluetooth
wireless technology, you
must set up a phone
connection. To use it with
your handheld’s IR port,
run Phone Link Updater,
and then use the Phone
Link application to set up
a phone connection.
Did You Know?
You can also easily send
information from the
desktop component of
many applications. For
example, you can send
photos from the palmOne
Media desktop
application. See the
online desktop help for
information.
Tip
If you are unable to send
information to another
device, try moving closer
to the receiving device.
