Other types of IR connections

You can also establish a 2-way connection between your PC or laptop
computer and your phone via infrared. With this type of connection, your
phone can:

function as an external modem connected via IR. Use your existing
data software (Dial-up Networking, AOL, etc.) or fax software (WinFax
Pro, HotFax, etc.) to send and receive faxes, connect to the Internet,
or check e-mail. For more information, see the accompanying PC
Connectivity Guide
.

synchronize it’s phone book, calendar, and to-do list with some of the
most popular Personal Information Manager (PIM) programs on the
market (Outlook, ACT!, Lotus Organizer, Gold Mine, etc.). Use the
FoneSync application found on the Nokia CD-ROM in conjunction
with your existing PIM application to keep all of your information
up-to-date.
