devices to communicate. When the same alphanumeric string is entered at both 
devices, communication becomes possible. The Passkey may be changed for every 
communication session as long as the same one is used for both devices. Once a 
valid link has been established, communication is possible without further Passkey 
input for a preset period of time.
7Enter a Passkey on the mobile phone, and click OK.
The Authentication screen appears on your CLIÉ handheld.
8Enter the same Passkey as Step 6 and tap OK on your CLIÉ 
handheld.
