MusicDJ™. The built-in sound synthesizer uses wavetables, real instrument sounds, with 40 voice polyphony. The new composer has an improved graphical user interface to simplify melody handling. All new and edited melodies are stored in MIDI format.

File management

There is a file manager, similar to that which can be found on many computers. In the file manager the user has an overview of the contents of the phone as well as how much memory is allocated to each function and feature.

GPRS (General Packet Radio Service)

GPRS offers the user the speed needed for satisfactory mobile Internet usability. The phone supports GPRS (Class 10 meaning 4+2 sum 5).

WAP 2.0 supporting XHTML™

The WAP browser supports the markup languages of WAP 2.0 – XHTML Mobile and XHTML Basic. These two subsets of the Web standard XHTML are supported by all major Web browsers. An XHTML page can be viewed in both the WAP browser and in any standard Web browser. All of the basic XHTML features are supported, including text, images, links, check boxes, radio buttons, text areas, headings, horizontal rules and lists.

In addition to XHTML, the WAP browser supports WML. The user can navigate between WML and XHTML pages. WAP 2.0 also supports cookies, often used by Web sites to store site-specific information in the browser between visits to the site. Cookies are often used by e-commerce sites (in shopping carts and wish lists for example), and to save the user from entering the same information more than once.

White Paper Z500a

On the Web, the de facto standard style sheet language is Cascading Style Sheets (CSS), specified by the W3C and implemented in IE, Netscape, and Opera. For mobile phones, the OMA has identified a subset of CSS and extended it with OMA specific style rules. The CSS subset and the OMA extensions are called Wireless CSS (WCSS). The WAP browser supports WCSS 1.1

Instant messaging (Wireless Village)

To ensure interoperability of mobile instant messaging and presence services, Sony Ericsson, Ericsson, Motorola and Nokia have created the Wireless Village Solution, an open standard. The protocol is bearer- independent and can be implemented in different networks. The Wireless Village Instant Messaging and Presence Service (IMPS) includes three primary features:

Presence

Presence information of other Wireless Village users is received and displayed to indicate their willingness to communicate. The user’s own presence information is also sent for others to view. If the user is interested in another person’s presence status, he or she can search for this person. If the person is found, the user may subscribe to his/her presence information. The presence information is displayed in a contact list.

Instant messaging

Instant messaging means “point-to-point messaging” between Wireless Village users. Messages can be sent to an entire contact list or to a single user. Short message histories of the communication are filed.

Groups

The user may join a chatroom and chat with the other participants/members.

Cascading style sheets (CSS)

Before style sheets were introduced on the Web, developers had little control over the presentation of their Web pages. An XHTML document specifies the structure of the content, which part is a paragraph, which part is a heading, and so on. It does not specify how it shall be presented. Browsers use a default presentation for documents without style sheets. By adding a style sheet to the document the developer can control the presentation of the document, the colors, fonts, and layout.

Email

With inbox, outbox, save draft and reply options, you have all the functions you need for effective email communication in a powerful mobile phone. Constantly connected to a POP3, SMTP or IMAP4 email server anywhere on the Internet, your phone stores messages dynamically, depending on available memory, and updates your inbox automatically and over the air. Check your email anywhere. Reply to email on the move. Friends, family and business contacts know that when they send you email, you can receive, read and act on it immediately. You can include pictures in outgoing emails and receive attachments. Hyperlinks in emails are supported.
