Bluetooth® Wireless Connectivity

Bluetooth® is a short-range wireless technology you can use to
transfer data between your Sahara Slate PC and other wireless
devices that use Bluetooth, such as wireless keyboards and mice,
cell phones, PDAs and even printers. Bluetooth-enabled devices
can communicate with each other, without cables, up to a
distance of 0 feet.

NOTE: The wireless range can be shortened from interference
caused by other wireless devices and/or by walls made of dense
building materials.

Some of the activities available with Bluetooth wireless
connectivity are:

Using a wireless keyboard, such as TabletKiosk’s Bluetooth
Folding Keyboard, to enter data on your Sahara Slate PC.

Connecting to your Bluetooth-capable cell phone to access
the Internet and surf the web or download your e-mail.

Setting up a Personal Area Network (PAN) to transfer files
between your Sahara Slate PC and that of a colleague, or
even an eo UMPC, without the need of using ethernet cables
or even an existing wireless network.

Print to a Bluetooth-enabled printer from across the room
without connecting any cables.

Generally, to connect to a Bluetooth enabled device:

1.

Turn on the
Bluetooth
transmitter using the
toggle switch on the
top of your tablet.

2.

Locate the BlueSoleil application, either in
your START Menu or on the desktop and
launch it.
