Wireless technology opens many new possiblities for personal mobile devices. Wireless e-mail, LAN/WAN internet access, faxes, file transfers, and Palm HotSyncs are just a few examples of what can be done using this new cable-free standard. The 3Com Bluetooth Device is configured using 3Com Bluetooth Connection Manager (see 3Com Bluetooth Connection Manager). Connection Manager is used for configuring the 3Com Bluetooth Device and viewing other Bluetooth devices. It must be running to use the 3Com Bluetooth Device. Connection Manager is installed automatically (see Installing Your 3Com Bluetooth Device) and is loaded at Windows startup. It remains minimized as a system tray icon until you double-click the icon. Once you open Connection Manager you can configure your 3Com Bluetooth Device and connect to other Bluetooth devices.
