Modem
(Provided with
some models)
Some computers in this series are equipped with
an internal modem. The internal modem provides
capability for data and fax communication. It
supports V.90 (V.92). Refer to
section in
Appendix C. The speed of date transfer and fax
depends on analog telephone line conditions. It
has a modem jack for connecting to a telephone
line. It is preinstalled as a standard device in some
markets. Both of V.90 and V.92 are supported only
in USA, Canada and Australia. Only V.90 is
available in other regions.
Bluetooth
Some computers in this series are equipped with
Bluetooth functions. Bluetooth wireless technology
eliminates the need for cables between electronic
devices such as computers and printers. Bluetooth
