and the Power Mac G5.

Making life easier

When you turn the Bluetooth feature on, your Mac

can easily perform a file transfer or even a

synchronization. From the Bluetooth selection

menu, you can choose to either send a file or

browse devices, quickly and easily. Or, you can

click the sync button in iSync to update your

cell phone or Palm OS handheld.

The Mac and GSM/GPRS mobile phone with Bluetooth

work to make each other more useful. By using

iSync, you can keep your phone updated without

having to type any info, as you can keep the

information in the more manageable address book

on your Mac instead.

You can also use your Bluetooth enabled Mac to

print documents and digital images to select a

printer that also supports the technology of

Bluetooth. Or, you can also use a headset to

talk to your friends during an iChat session.

Your Mac also has the ability to use Bluetooth

technology to communicate with your Palm OS

handheld. This way, you can perform a HotSync

operation without using any cables. You can also

send your business card or calendar events directly

to someone else's handheld usingthe technology of

Bluetooth.

iBook and AirPort in 1999. During 2003, Apple

launched AirPort Extreme, which was based on

the new 802.11g high speed technology of wireless.

Now, Bluetooth helps to further strengthen the

dominant position of the Mac in wireless

communications, helping to preserve Apple's

reputation for being the first to market with

innovative technology that integrates right into
