  • Page 4: White Paper, April

    The Ericsson T68i/T68ie White Paper is designed to give the reader a deeper technical understanding of how the T68i/T68ie is designed, and of how it interacts with other media. This document will make it eas- ier to integrate the T68i/T68ie with the IT and communications solutions of a company or organization.

  • Page 6: Product Overview

    Product overview The T68i comes in two versions, T68i and T68ie. The only difference between the two versions is the languages they support. In this document, the name T68i stands for both versions. The T68i is small, sleek and impressively designed.
  • Page 7: More In-Phone Functions

    Joystick navigation The T68i has an easy-to-use 5-directional joystick function. Using finger or thumb, you can easily navigate the new T68i menu system. When you arrive at the required function in a menu, instead of pressing Yes, just gently press the joystick and the feature is activated.

    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 T68i share the same memory, allowing for efficient memory usage.
  • Page 9: Multimedia In The T68I

    Multimedia in the T68i The T68i is a multimedia phone. The colour display together with the audio functionality gives the user several multimedia possibilities. Sounds can be recorded and pictures can be created and edited. By using themes, it is easy to change the appearance of the display.
  • Page 10: Mms (Multimedia Messaging Service)

    MMS (Multimedia Messaging Service) One of the key features in the T68i is the Multimedia Messaging Service (MMS), expected to become the preferred messaging method of mobile terminal users, since there are virtually no limits to the content of an MMS transmission. An MMS message from the T68i can contain text, graphics, animations, images, audio clips and ring melodies.
  • Page 11: Benefits

    SMIL in the T68i allows the user to the create and transmit PowerPoint-style presentations on the mobile device. SMIL is an advanced XML-based protocol, and Sony Ericsson MMS supports a subset of this protocol. Using a simple media editor, users can incorporate audio and animated GIFs along with still images, animations and text to assemble full multimedia presentations.
  • Page 12: Mms Technical Features

    MMS technical features The MMS standard, just like SMS, offers store- and-forward transmission (instant delivery) of messages, rather than a mailbox-type model. MMS is a person-to-person communications solution, meaning that the user gets the message directly into the mobile. He or she doesn’t have to call the server to get the message downloaded to the mobile.
  • Page 13: Ems (Enhanced Messaging Service)

    EMS (Enhanced Messaging Service) Enhanced Messaging Service (EMS) adds new powerful functionality to the well-known SMS standard. With it, mobile phone users can add life to SMS text messaging in the form of pictures, animations,sound and formatted text.This gives the users new ways to express feelings, moods and personality in SMS messages.
  • Page 14: Compatible With Sms Standards

    Compatible with SMS standards Users will find EMS as easy to use as SMS. At the moment 15 billion SMS messages, are sent every month worldwide. Roughly 80% of this traffic is user-to-user i.e. mobile phone users sending short messages to each other using the keypad of the phone to enter text.
  • Page 15 T68i White Paper, April 2002 with an SMS request interface. The diagram shows a model over the possibilities with Enhanced Messaging Service: - When the Operator/Service provider enables EMS in the network, users will enjoy adding life to messages with sounds, melodies, pictures and formatted text. - New ranges of Content/Application aggregators on the operator network or the Internet can provide EMS contents and services to the users over SMS.

    10 metres. Please note that in countries where the use of Bluetooth wireless technology is not allowed, the Bluetooth function should be switched off. Contact a Sony Ericsson representative to check if the use of Bluetooth wireless technology is restricted in your country.
  • Page 17: Synchronize Calendar And Phone Book

    Synchronize calendar and phone book In everyday life, access to an updated calendar and addresses of friends and business colleagues is greatly appreciated. To be truly mobile, users must be able to carry their important information with them. Equipping mobile phones with Personal Information Manager (PIM) programs such as calendars, to- do lists and address books gives users access to their most important data anywhere and anytime.
  • Page 18: Benefits Of A Common Synchronization Protocol

    Figure 4 SyncML architecture Benefits of a common synchronization protocol • End users Today’s user of mobile devices probably uses a different synchronization product with every device. Each technology can synchronize only a few applications, or is limited to a particular type of network con- nection.
  • Page 19: Local Synchronization

    • Network operators As multiple applications that need remote synchronization over WAP are developed, there will be an automatic growth of reve- nue for network operators. Local synchronization Open standard Synchronization is possible with almost any groupware or office program, since the synchronization method complies with the open standard IrMC 1.1, as specified by the Infrared Data Association –...

XTNDConnect PC All users of the T68i can easily upgrade to the full version of the synchronization software. A number of features and supported applications will then be added, including XTNDConnect Phone Viewer.
  • Page 21: Wap Services

    WAP services The T68i has a WAP browser, supporting WAP 2.0 (WML 1.3). WAP 2.0 optimizes usage of higher bandwidths and packet-based connections of wireless networks. The typical WAP client is a small, portable device connected to a wireless network. This includes mobile phones, pagers, smart phones, PDAs and other small devices.

  • Page 25: Mobile Positioning

    Mobile positioning The geographic location of mobile subscribers can be used to provide them with related information and a variety of services. Sony Ericsson’s Mobile Positioning System (MPS) gives operators a fast and cost-effective way to establish and roll out location-based services. For users of the T68i, the integration of mobile positioning with WAP services means that a complete range of service and information tools...

The T68i supports a more efficient coding scheme, giving data speeds of up to 14,400 bps (with necessary net- work support).
  • Page 27 Using with the T68i has several advantages, for example: • Constant connection Keep an open connection to an e-mail system or the company network, staying online to receive and send messages at all times. All connection settings can be man- aged by using the data connections fea- ture.
  • Page 28: Modem And At Commands

    Modem and AT commands The T68i contains a complete GSM/GPRS modem. This provides data and e-mail communication, as well as Internet/intranet access, for a connected PC, PDA or handheld device. Once the PC/PDA is connected to the phone using a cable, Bluetooth wireless technology or infrared, and the appropriate software is installed, the modem in the phone works in a similar way to a PC Card modem, or an...
