Connection preferences
The Connection Preferences screen enables you to define the settings used to
connect your handheld to other devices. The screen displays a list of available
configurations that are ready to be further defined; the list varies depending on the
kind of software you’ve added to your handheld.
For example, a modem connection appears on the list. If you have this modem, you
only need to specify the phone setup (and network connection — if required) to
complete the configuration.
NOTE
You can purchase a PalmModem accessory for use with your handheld. See
www.palm.com.
You can also create custom configurations, which include the following:
PC via Cradle/Cable:
A local HotSync connection: the direct
connection between your handheld and your desktop computer.
Your handheld is connected by its universal connector to the cradle,
and the cradle is attached by its cable to a USB port of your desktop
computer. (If you are using the optional serial cradle, the cradle
attaches by its cable to a serial (COM) port of your computer.)
