Chapter 3: Syncing Your
NeoPoint Phone
Overview
This chapter discusses how to sync your NeoPoint phone and your PC. It assumes
you have already installed and configured the sync software. Refer to the SoftSync
Plus User’s Guide for instructions on installing and configuring your sync software.
Why sync your phone?
The benefit of syncing is to make it convenient for you to transfer data between the
NeoPoint phone and your personal information management (PIM) program. For
example: when you enter all of your friends and business associates - referred to as
contacts - information into your PC and then transfer or sync the data to your
NeoPoint phone, you have:
• All of the information with you wherever you go (with your phone)
• Saved yourself the task of entering the data twice (on the PC and phone)
• Created a data backup (if you lose the data on your PC, you have a data back-up on
your phone.
The same is true for your personal schedule information. The NeoPoint phone can
display your next meeting/appointment and notify you in advance of your meeting/
appointment, etc.
