Conducting a HotSync operation via a network
When you use the Network HotSync software, you can take advantage of 
the Local Area Network (LAN) connectivity available in many office 
environments. The Network HotSync software enables you to perform a 
HotSync operation by using a cable that is connected to any computer on 
your LAN (provided that the computer connected to the cable also has the 
Network HotSync software installed, your computer is on, and the 
HotSync Manager is running).

1.
Click the HotSync Manager icon 
 in the Windows system tray 
(bottom-right corner of the taskbar).
2.
From the HotSync Manager menu, choose
