Use Microsoft ® Pocket Internet Explorer to view Web or WAP pages in either of these ways:
• During synchronization with your computer, download your favorite links and mobile favorites
that are stored in the Mobile Favorites subfolder in Internet Explorer on the computer.
• Connect to an Internet service provider (ISP) or network and browse the Web. See
“Accessing the Internet” in Chapter 3.
When connected to an ISP or network, you can also download files and programs from the Internet

The Mobile Favorites Folder
Only items in your computer’s Mobile Favorites folder will be synchronized with your device. This
folder is automatically created when ActiveSync
® is installed.
Favorite Links
During synchronization your computer’s Mobile Favorites folder is synchronized with your device’s
Pocket Internet Explorer. Both computers are updated each time you synchronize. If the link is not
marked as mobile favorite, you will have to connect to your ISP or network to view page content.
For more information, see ActiveSync
® Help on the computer.
