Phone applications
The following new call features are available in
P990i:
•
In call menu: P990i has a dynamic in call menu
that changes to help the user perform actions
quickly and simply.
•
Accept Calls: users can specify which calls to
accept and which calls to rejected.
•
Rich call functionality: P990i allows SMS, MMS,
and contact cards to be easily sent during a call.
•
Call notes: P990i can launch Notes whilst a call
is ongoing. The note is automatically named
with the other party’s number, name (if known),
time of call and date. The user can start writing
in the note immediately.
•
Follow up call: P990i can automatically create
follow up call tasks. The task contains the
phone number, contact name, time of call, and
date of call.
•
Speakerphone.
Video call
With the speed of UMTS and video call functional-
ity, the P990i can be used to share news face-to-
face with your business colleagues, family or
friends. During a video call, the stream can be
switch from the front VGA camera to the back meg-
apixel camera. Use the megapixel camera to share
images, such as scenery, with the video call recipi-
ent.
One of the camera feeds can be swapped to show
a stored picture, allowing the callers reaction to be
seen.
The camera can be set up to automatically switch
on when you receive a call.
The VGA camera is mounted in portrait mode.
Landscape video call images are produced from
the portrait image feed by clipping the top and bot-
tom of the portrait image. This affects the resolu-
tion of the VGA camera and causes a zooming
effect.
Business telephony
Corporations have traditionally used fixed-line and
DECT phones in the office, but now there is a
strong trend towards the use of mobile phones to
access business telephony features. Of prime
importance, however, is that users can still access
the features and functionality of their corporate
communication system, no matter which phone
they are using. The P990i can interact with the fol-
lowing corporate systems:
•
A Corporate switch PABX, (Private Automatic
Branch Exchange), equipped with a mobile
extension port, (like the Ericsson MD110 and
BusinessPhone).
•
The mobile centrex service, if provided by the
operator.
•
Telephony server located at the operator’s or
customer’s premises.
Feature commands
The user activates corporate features by selecting
commands from a list, which can be dynamically
sent by the server via an IP link, or pre-configured
by the company’s IT manage, the operator or a
service provider. Each command displays a text
description of the function.
