E-mail

The T300/T302 is one of the first mobile phones on the market with a built-in fully functional e- mail client. With inbox, outbox, save draft and reply options, you have all the functions you need for effective e-mail communication in a small and powerful mobile phone. Constantly connected to a POP3, SMTP or IMAP4 e-mail server anywhere on the Internet, your T300/T302 stores messages (without attachments) dynamically, depending on available memory, and updates your inbox automatically and over the air. Check your e-mail anywhere. Reply to e- mail on the move. Friends, family and business contacts know that when they send you e-mail, you receive it and can read it and act on it immediately. You can include pictures in outgoing e-mails, but not receive attachments. Hyperlinks in e-mails are supported.

EMS (Enhanced Messaging Service)

You can send text, pictures and sounds in easy- to-create and fun messages. EMS has been adopted by several leading mobile phone manufacturers, making it possible for T300/T302 users to send enhanced text messages to users of other makes of mobile phones. EMS makes it possible for the user to use text formatting (style, size, alignment and paragraphs) in a text message. At purchase there are several pre- defined images and animations in the T300/ T302.

Predictive Text Input Software

Text messaging with your T300/T302 is made easier than ever with the introduction of predictive text input software. Instead of having to press keys several times for a letter, software in your T300/T302 chooses from a dictionary of words and phrases and anticipates what word or phrase you are writing, giving your mobile phone keyboard ease of use comparable to that of a full-size keyboard.

Screen saver and sleep mode

The screen saver is activated when the phone has been idle for 26 seconds. There is a pre- defined screen saver at the purchase of the phone, but the user can choose his/her own image/animation as a screen saver. After a short period of time the screen saver changes to sleep mode, to save power.

Memory management

All applications in the T300/T302 share the same memory, allowing for efficient memory usage. When the memory runs low, the user gets information about the current memory situation, where each application’s usage is displayed. In the memory manager menu, the user can delete items from any application, in order to set memory free. The memory available for the user is approximately 400 kBytes.

Mobile chat

Mobile chat makes text messaging easier, since a chat-session opens up immediately when a text message is received from a phone. Because the user stays connected during the session, the messages open up automatically. All previous messages from both persons are visible on screen, each writer being distinguished by a nickname.

Picture phone book

The phone book in the T300/T302 lets the user assign a picture or a personal ring signal to a certain phone number. When the user gets a call from this person, the picture (instead of the number) is shown in the display.

Events

The T300/T302 Events feature keeps track of important meetings that you need to attend, phone calls that you need to make or tasks that you need to do. 20 items can be saved. You can also choose to add, reschedule, edit, send or delete events.

iMelody and Melody Composer

The audio iMelody format enhances the sound quality in the T300/T302. With this format, the user can play, compose, edit and send melodies within the improved Melody Composer. The composer has an improved graphical user interface to simplify melody handling. All new and edited melodies are stored in the iMelody format.
