4.3 Synchronizing Using an Infrared Connection
You can use an infrared connection to create a direct connection between your phone
and another mobile device or computer quickly. This method is ideal for quickly switching
between multiple devices since there are no cables or adapters to change. When creating
a partnership, you must connect using infrared, a cable, or a cradle connection.
For more information about synchronizing using an infrared connection or other connection
types, see ActiveSync Help on your desktop computer.
