Personal Information Manager items to and from a remote Bluetooth device.
The supported items are:

Calendar (*.vcs)
Item transfer can be accomplished several ways:
• From Windows Explorer, My Bluetooth Places, highlight the PIM Item Transfer
service on a remote device, and then, from the Bluetooth menu on the Windows
menu bar, select the appropriate action.
•
From within a supported Personal Information Manager:
Select one or more items and then, from the PIM's File menu, select Send to
Bluetooth.
or
Drag-and-drop a supported item directly from your PIM to the PIM Item
Transfer service icon of a remote device.
•
For business cards:
From Windows Explorer, My Bluetooth Places, right-click the PIM Item
Transfer service on a remote device and select the appropriate option.
or
In the Windows system tray, right-click the Bluetooth icon, select Quick
Connect > Business Card Exchange, select a device from the list, select the
appropriate option from the shortcut menu, and then click OK.
Whether sent items are accepted by the remote device is determined by how the remote
device's PIM Item Transfer service is configured.
