Using Bluetooth (available on selected models)
The Bluetooth function allows you to get connected to various devices
and services that support Bluetooth transmission. You can connect
wirelessly without the need for data cables when printing documents,
synchronizing your Personal Information Management (PIM) data with
your Personal Digital Assistant (PDA) or another Personal Computer
(PC), mobile phone or even sharing a network connection.
Bluetooth is available on selected models.
When you launch your Joybook for the first time and complete the initial
Windows Vista setup, take the following step if you see the screen below.
Simply click Ask me again later, Don’t show this message again for this
device, or Next. The installation of the Bluetooth driver will run
automatically in the background. This process takes 5 minutes
approximately.
