    Hey all,

    I am trying to transfer a small file from my laptop (D600) to my PDA. I know how to transfer a file from PDA to laptop, I easily did it w/o additional softwares, only built-in driver. Do I need additional softwares to transfer files from laptop to PDA?

    TIA.

    JC

    Some laptop IRDA devices are only capable of receiving.

    the laptop should have a send option, perhaps via right click, when you see the infrared connection icon on the system tray.
