Push services

Businesses and service providers can “push” con- tent or service indications to work groups and/or customers. Examples of pushed content would be mail alerts, messaging, news, stock quotes, con- tacts, meeting requests, etc.

White Paper Z600

Provide settings

Using SMS messages, configuration settings can be sent over the air, OTA, so that the user does not need to configure the WAP access settings manu- ally. WAP settings may also be customized by the operator.

Support of XHTML

The WAP browser supports the markup languages of WAP 2.0. It supports WAP 1.2.1 + XHTML Mobile Profile 1.0 + WCSS (XHTML-MP), XHTML Basic, a subset of XHTML-MP, IHTML, WAP Cas- cading Style Sheets (WCSS), WML version 1.3 and WMLScript. The subsets of the WAP standard XHTML are supported by all major WAP browsers. WAP pages authored in XHTML and WCSS can be displayed in standard PC browsers such as IE and Netscape. WAP pages authored in WML can be displayed in WAP browsers only. It is preferable, therefore, that developers use XHTML and CSS to develop content as these are pure WAP standards. WML and WMLScript are for backwards compati- bility.

All of the basic XHTML and IHTML features are supported, including text, images, links, check- boxes, radio buttons, text areas, headings, hori- zontal rules and lists. For IHTML also blink and marquee, but not tables.

Support for cookies

Z600 has support for cookies (client based), an application used by WAP sites to store site-specific information in the browser between visits to the site. Cookies give the site owner a possibility to see when a person has visited their site. They also save the user from having to enter the same information (e.g. the password or user ID) more than once. Cookies are often used by e-commerce sites (shopping carts and wish lists).

Style sheets

Z600 supports style sheets offering content devel- opers more control over the way their WAP pages are displayed.

Sending bookmarks

WAP 2.0 enables the sending of bookmarks via infrared as well as via SMS.

Adapt to phone type

The User Agent Profile function allows WAP con- tent to be automatically optimized for the Z600, ensuring the intended user experience.

Several bearer types

The Z600 accesses the WAP over a standard GSM Data connection as well as over a GPRS connec- tion (network-dependent services.)

Bandwidth efficiency

Unlike traditional Internet services, WAP services are relayed to wireless devices as binary encoded data, maximizing bandwidth efficiency. A GPRS connection further increases efficiency.

Easy create for WAP

Creating a WAP service is no harder than creating an Internet/intranet service, as WML and WMLS- cript are based on well-known Internet languages such as HTML and JavaScript.

Using standard tools

Service creators can use standard tools such as ASP (Active Server Page) or CGI (Common Gate- way Interface) to generate content dynamically.

Services can be created once and then made accessible on a broad range of wireless networks.

Maintain customer base

Existing services can be adapted to WAP. The nec- essary binary encoding is handled by a WAP Gate- way, allowing HTML-based services to be viewed on the WAP browser of the Z600. An XHTML page can be viewed in both the WAP browser and in any standard Web (HTML) browser.

Z600 specifications

The Tannoy Z600 is a remarkable loudspeaker that embodies the company’s commitment to high-performance audio, blending classic craftsmanship with innovative technologies. Designed for both professional and home listening environments, the Z600 serves as an exemplary model in Tannoy’s extensive range of audio solutions.

One of the standout features of the Z600 is its dual-concentric driver design. This technology has been a hallmark of Tannoy's engineering for decades, ensuring that sound is emitted from a single point source. This results in an incredibly coherent soundstage with exceptional imaging, allowing listeners to experience audio with a sense of depth and clarity that is often absent in traditional speaker designs.

The Z600 further enhances its audio reproduction capabilities through the use of high-quality drivers. It houses a 6.5-inch bass driver paired with a 1-inch high-frequency driver. The combination enables the speaker to handle a wide frequency range, delivering rich bass tones while maintaining crystal clear highs. The speaker's crossover design is meticulously crafted to ensure seamless integration between the bass and treble drivers, which contributes to a balanced and natural sound signature.

Equipped with a robust MDF cabinet, the Z600 is designed to minimize unwanted resonances and provide a solid base for sound reproduction. The cabinet's architecture is complemented by a stylish finish, available in various veneers, allowing it to blend well with any modern or classic décor.

Installation options are versatile, featuring bi-wiring capabilities that enhance the speaker's performance. This feature allows for separate connections to the bass and treble drivers, optimizing audio quality and enabling advanced customization based on user preference.

Another notable characteristic of the Tannoy Z600 is its wide dispersion pattern. This attribute ensures that sound remains consistent and clear even when listening from different positions in the room. This makes the Z600 an excellent choice for both casual listening and critical monitoring in professional setups.

With its combination of innovative technologies, premium materials, and expert craftsmanship, the Tannoy Z600 stands out as a top-tier choice for audio enthusiasts. Whether for home entertainment or studio monitoring, it offers a listening experience that is both engaging and immersive, making it a worthy addition to any audio system.
