MOBILE INTERNET AND E-MAIL

The Mobile Internet offers much more than mobile access to the internet - it opens up a whole new range of situation-based services. Services that give us anytime, anywhere access to per- sonalized communications, information and entertainment. The T39 is built to facilitate the use of and access to services on the internet. The T39 also enables new technologies such as mobile positioning to create new commercial and productivity solutions.

Data Connections

In order to browse via WAP or use the e-mail program or an internet connection, the user must have a connection for data communication configured in the phone. Such a connection is called a Data connection. A Data connection contains specific settings and parameters for the connec- tion, for example, the address to the appropriate server. Several Data connections can be saved in the T39, with different settings. To make it easier for the user, the Data connections can be provided by the operator in a message over the air, OTA provisioning.

Advantages of Data connections include:

Once the data connections are defined and named, the user does not have to enter the set- tings for the connection again

Data connections can be re-used at any time

When working with WAP, e-mail or the internet, the user simply selects which Data connec- tion they want to use for the activity

Data connections are used for both GSM Data and GPRS connection settings

Data connections contain choice of bearer type for WAP and corresponding bearer specific parameters

Data connections contain all settings for the internet access point, whether a modem pool phone number or an IP address, and the user ID and password

Built-in E-mail Client

The T39 has a built-in e-mail client for sending and receiving e-mail messages. This means that users can connect to the e-mail account normally used on the corporate network, or another e- mail service as preferred. The same settings as those on the office PC can be used in the e-mail client on the user’s T39. The e-mail client has several useful features:

A true POP3/SMTP e-mail client, it supports the majority of e-mail and web-mail servers

Copy of outgoing mail can be sent to the corporate e-mail server for future reference

The user can attach a photo from a digital camera

Automatic e-mail check at regular intervals selected by the user

More than one e-mail account in the phone, for example, one for your business e-mail and one for your private e-mail

Predictive text input (T9 Text Input) facilitates typing text in e-mail body, address and sub- ject
