a compatible mobile phone. You can connect to a compatible mobile phone
using any of the following methods:

A wireless link that enables you to connect to a
Bluetooth mobile phone that is within 10 meters (approximately 30 feet) of your
handheld. See

A wireless link that enables you to connect to an
infrared-enabled mobile phone within 1 meter (approximately 39 inches) of
your handheld. The infrared ports on the two devices must be aligned and the
path between the two devices must be clear of obstacles. See

■
A serial cable connection:
A wire-based link that connects your handheld to a
mobile phone with a physical cable.
Serial cables and mobile phones that are enabled with infrared or Bluetooth
