31 | and Todo). However, sometimes you may need to simply send a file to another device via IrDA, regardless of the | ||
32 | file type. To do this, you can use either AdvancedFM (yet to be documented), or you can do this from the | ||
33 | Documents tab. To beam a file from the Documents tab, you must first add that file to the Documents tab if you | ||
34 | havent already (see <xref linkend="adddoc">). Then, go to the Documents tab and press and hold on the icon for | ||
35 | the file you want to send. A dialog should appear, with a button in the bottom right labeled "Beam". Press this | ||
