+<para>
+Several applications support beaming files in a format specific to that application (specifically, Contacts, Calendar,
+and Todo). However, sometimes you may need to simply send a file to another device via IrDA, regardless of the
+file type. To do this, you can use either AdvancedFM (yet to be documented), or you can do this from the
+Documents tab. To beam a file from the Documents tab, you must first add that file to the Documents tab if you
+havent already (see <xref linkend="adddoc">). Then, go to the Documents tab and press and hold on the icon for
+the file you want to send. A dialog should appear, with a button in the bottom right labeled "Beam". Press this
+button, and Opie will beam the file to any waiting devices.
