Chapter 3: Syncing Your
NeoPoint Phone
Overview
This chapter discusses how to sync your NeoPoint phone and your PC. It assumes
you have already installed and configured the sync software. For instructions on
installing and configuring your sync software, refer to the sync documentation that
came with your phone kit.
Why sync your phone? The benefit of syncing is to make it convenient for you to
transfer data between the NeoPoint phone and your personal information
management (PIM) program. For example: when you enter all of your friends and
business associates - referred to as contacts - information into your PC and then
transfer or sync the data to your NeoPoint phone, you have:
• All of the information with you wherever you go (with your phone)
• Saved yourself the task of entering the data twice (on the PC and phone)
• Created a data backup (if you lose the data on your PC, you have a data back - up
on your phone.
The same is true for your personal schedule information. The NeoPoint phone can
display your next meeting/appointment, notify you in advance of your meeting/
appointment, etc.
