1.2 Battery
Your Pocket PC Phone contains a rechargeable Li-ion poly­mer battery under the back cover. Battery power depends on whether you are talking on the phone, using the PDA functions or if the device is on standby.
Battery life estimates :
n Talk-time : 3 ~ 4 hrs,
n PDA : 15 hrs (approx.),
n Standby : 168 hrs (approx.),
Started
Getting
n Data retention time : 72 hrs.
The above times are based on using one function at a time, interchanging between functions will vary the battery life.
Data Retention
It is vital to keep your battery charged. Because your Pocket PC does not have a hard drive, all data and any new programs you install are stored in RAM. If the battery completely drains any data or new programs you installed will be erased. Only the default programs on the device when you bought it will remain.
To prevent this kind of data loss, a portion of the main battery will keep your data safe for 72 hours if your device runs out of power. An additional battery, the backup battery, is designed to keep your data safe when you remove the main battery. It will keep this data safe for 20 minutes.
Warning : To reduce risk of re or burns, do
not disassemble, crush, puncture, short external contacts, heat above 60 (140), or dispose of in re or water. Replace only with manufacturer specied batteries. Recycle or dispose of used batteries to the local regulations.

4.1 Using ActiveSync
Using Microsoft ActiveSync you can synchronize the information on your PC with the information on your Pocket PC Phone. Synchronization compares the data on your device with your PC and updates both with the most recent information. With ActiveSync, you can:
n Keep Pocket Outlook data up-to-date by synchronizing your device with Microsoft
Outlook data on your PC.
n Choose to synchronize Inbox, Calendar, and Contacts with a server so that you have
the latest information, even when your desktop computer is turned off.

Using Server ActiveSync, you can synchronize information directly with a
Microsoft Exchange Server if your company is running Microsoft® Mobile
Information Server 2002 or later.
Installing ActiveSync
Before you begin synchronization, install ActiveSync on your desktop computer from the Pocket PC Phone 2003 Companion CD. ActiveSync is already installed on your Pocket PC Phone.

You can use an infrared connection to create a direct connection between your phone and another mobile device or computer quickly. This method is ideal for quickly switching between multiple devices since there are no cables or adapters to change. When creating a partnership, you must connect using infrared, a cable, or a cradle connection.
For more information about synchronizing using an infrared connection or other connection types, see ActiveSync Help on your desktop computer.
