CHAPTER 22 Sharing Information
Beaming
Using the IR port on your device, you can beam information from within an application, such as a
photo or video, a contact, an appointment, or a task, to other Palm Powered
™ devices. You can
also beam a category of information or even an entire application.
The receiving device must be turned on. Depending on the receiving device model, not
all information may be sent correctly.

Tip
For best results when
beaming, the devices
should be between 4 and
39 inches (10 centimeters
and one meter) apart, and
there should be a clear
path between them.
Tip
Beaming works best for
smaller items. If you have
larger items, you can use
Bluetooth® wireless
technology. Expansion
cards are convenient for
sharing very large items.
