Making Further Connections
In This Chapter
Working wirelessly
Reading about Wi-Fi
Biting into Bluetooth
Using USB and memory cards
In addition to Wi-Fi from your Tab S2 NOOK to the Internet, your handheld wonder can use Wi-Fi Direct to communicate with many other devices in the immediate vicinity. The same handheld wonder can use a different kind of short-range radio system — Bluetooth — to talk to and otherwise enjoy relations with more electronic thingies.
But as a reminder: The Samsung Galaxy Tab S2 NOOK doesn’t have a cellular radio. Your smartphone does, and certain other more expensive tablets do, but not this NOOK. (You can add Skype or other voice-over-Internet-protocol [VOIP] apps to make phone calls if you have a strong Wi-Fi connection.)
This chapter expands your use of wireless non-cellular communication and then gets you wired.
