How to Wirelessly Sync Without BES

BES is a BlackBerry phone service that allows the device to sync with a computer via a wireless signal. However, if you do not have the application installed on a particular system or just don't want to use the program, it is possible to link the two devices with the aid of Bluetooth which functions in a similar fashion as the BES service, allowing you to transport data between the two devices.
