2 Knowing the Parts
Infrared Port (IrDA) (on selected models)
The infrared (IrDA) communication port allows convenient wireless data communication
with infrared-equipped devices or computers. This allows easy wireless synchronization
with PDAs or mobile phones and even wireless printing to printers. If your ofce supports
IrDA networking, you can have wireless connection to a network anywhere provided there
is a direct line of sight to an IrDA node. Small ofces can use IrDA technology to share a printer between
several closely placed Notebook PCs and even send les to each other without a network.
Audio Speaker System
The built-in stereo speaker system allows you to hear audio without additional attachments.
The multimedia sound system features an integrated digital audio controller that produces
rich, vibrant sound (results improved with external stereo headphones or speakers). Audio
features are software controlled.

Flash Memory Slot
Normally a PCMCIA or USB memory card reader must be purchased separately in
order to use memory cards from devices such as digital cameras, MP3 players, mobile
phones, and PDAs. This Notebook PC has a built-in memory card reader that can read
many ash memory cards as specied later in this manual. The built-in memory card reader is
not only convenient, but also faster than most other forms of memory card readers because it
utilizes the high-bandwidth PCI bus.
