Object Exchange – ‘Send As’
The P800 makes it possible to transfer objects over Bluetooth, infrared and Messaging. This is
presented to the user via ‘Send As’ commands in applications. Simply select an item such as a
contact, select ‘Send As’ and select the method to be used for sending. Typical applications are
to beam an appointment to other people, or to receive a new background image.

** SMS is text only; option to send the picture as GIF using the other bearers.
Note that the P800 messaging application enables the user to add objects into EMS and MMS
messages. See Messaging section.
To perform a ‘Send As’ beam operation using
infrared, the two devices are lined up and the
sender initiates the transfer.
To beam over Bluetooth, a scan finds the other
devices within range. The user can then select
the required device and send the information
across.
When sending over SMS, MMS or E-Mail, the
required message type is created with the
selected object attached. It is then sent over
the air.
