Infrared communication:

A wireless link that enables you to connect to an

infrared-enabled mobile phone within 1 meter (approximately 39 inches) of
your handheld. The infrared ports on the two devices must be aligned and the
path between the two devices must be clear of obstacles. See

A serial cable connection:

A wire-based link that connects your handheld to a
