Using your Sony Ericsson P800/P900 with the Logitech wireless hub

Introduction

If you have a Sony Ericsson P800/P900 mobile phone you can connect it to your
computer through the Bluetooth

®

wireless hub provided with your Logitech

®

product. Do so and discover what cordless freedom offers: communicate
efficiently, share information without wires, save time.

With your Logitech wireless hub it’s easy to get organized fast…

• Quick and easy synchronization lets you share a single address book,
calendar, and notes between your computer and Sony Ericsson P800/P900.

• Forget the frustration of entering names and numbers into both your phone
and computer – just enter them once and transfer them!

• Even losing your mobile phone doesn’t mean losing your phone book,
because you’ve got the details on your computer ready to quickly upload to
your next mobile phone.

Sharing pictures has never been easier. You can transfer pictures between your
computer and mobile phone, perhaps to personalize your phone with your
favorite photograph or share photographs with your friends. Just a few clicks is
all it takes.

And remember, no wires or cables. You can do all of this while moving around,
even with your phone in your pocket, as long as you stay in range – typically up
to 30 feet or 10 meters depending on your surroundings. What’s more, solid
objects won’t cause a problem because there does not need to be a line-of-sight
connection between your Sony Ericsson P800/P900 and Logitech wireless hub.

In short, connecting a Sony Ericsson P800/P900 to your Logitech wireless hub
means you can work and communicate more effectively.

Welcome to the expanding world of cordless freedom offered through your
Logitech wireless hub.

transferring pictures.
