Bonding with Other Devices

A bond is a relationship that you create between your Pocket PC and another
Bluetooth device in order to help exchange information in a secure manner.
Creating a bond involves entering the same PIN on the two devices you want to
bond. Once a bond is created, the devices need only have their Bluetooth radios
turned on to exchange information; they do not need to be in discoverable mode.
