Sharing Information
Beaming
Using the IR port on your handheld, you can beam information from within an application, such as 
a photo or video, a contact, an appointment, or a task, to other Palm Powered devices. You can 
also beam a category of information or even an entire application.
The receiving handheld must be turned on. Depending on the receiving handheld 
model, not all information may be sent correctly.

Tip
For best results when 
beaming, the handhelds 
should be between 4 and 
39 inches (10 centimeters 
and one meter) apart, and 
there should be a clear 
path between them. 
Tip
Beaming works best for 
smaller items. If you have 
larger items, you can use 
Bluetooth wireless 
technology
Expansion 
cards
 are convenient for 
sharing very large items.
