Bonds

A

bond is a relationship that you create between your Pocket PC Phone and another

Bluetooth device in order to exchange information in a secure manner. Creating a bond

involves entering the same personal identification number (PIN) on the two devices you

want to bond. You need only create a bond once between two devices. Once a bond is

created, the devices recognize the bond and are able to exchange information without

your entering a PIN again.
