5.2 Using Bluetooth
®
Bluetooth
®
is a short-range wireless communication technology that allows devices with
Bluetooth capabilities to exchange data within a radius of about 10 meters (30 feet) without
requiring a physical connection. With Bluetooth enabled in your Xda, you can:
• Connect and communicate, such as beam files, tasks, or contacts, with other Bluetooth-
enabled devices.
• Use Bluetooth service. After you connect to another device or computer using Bluetooth,
you can use the services available on that device.
