Sending data
In addition to beaming data, you can also use SMS or Bluetooth communication to
send information to and receive information from other devices. You can exchange
the following information with devices that support SMS or Bluetooth
communication:
■ The record currently displayed in Date Book, Address Book, To Do List, Note
Pad, Voice Memo, or Memo Pad
■ The category currently displayed in Address Book, To Do List, Note Pad, Voice
Memo, or Memo Pad
■ An application installed in RAM memory
■ An application installed on an expansion card that is seated in the card slot
TIP
You can also perform HotSync operations using Bluetooth
communication. See “Conducting Bluetooth HotSync operations” in
Chapter 16 for more information.
When you send a record or a category of records, the receiving device must have
an appropriate application installed to read the data. When you send an
application, you cannot send applications that are locked and appear with a lock
icon next to them.

information with other Bluetooth-enabled devices. To use your handheld for
Bluetooth communication, you must first turn on Bluetooth communication on the
Bluetooth Preferences screen. See “Bluetooth Preferences” in Chapter 17 for
details.
After you turn on Bluetooth communication, you can share data with Bluetooth-
enabled devices that have compatible versions of the appropriate Bluetooth-
enabled applications.
To send a record or category of records with Bluetooth communication:
1. Locate the record or category you want to send.
2. Tap the Menu icon .
