> Fax Mail. You don’t have to worry about being away from a
fax machine – all your contacts need is your fax mailbox
number. Faxes can be received in your Omnipoint mailbox at
anytime, where they will be stored for later retrieval. Just call
your mailbox and designate the number where the fax
transmission should be re-routed for hard-copy printout.
> Data/Fax Transfer. Check your office e-mail, access files –
your Omnipoint handset is capable of transmitting faxes and
data files protected by encryption. You can use standard PC
software and appropriate hardware accessories; applications
for this advanced feature range from accessing remote
databases to surfing the Internet.
> Call Restriction. Control calls made on your account – to
prevent unwanted usage, you can set up your Omnipoint
account to allow only certain types of calls: incoming only,
local only, no international calls, or no roaming. An ideal
service for employees with company-supplied phones who
work within a set region or for family members who could use
a wireless phone for emergencies or just to call home.
> Conference Calling. Maximize productivity and save time
– with Conference Calling, you’ll be able to carry on a
conversation with several people at once.
> Voice-Activated Dialing. Use your voice, not your hands –
this feature will bring you an added level of convenience and
safety by allowing you to make voice-activated calls, leaving
your hands free to write notes or perform other functions.
For more information on these and other advanced options, call
Customer Care from your handset at or dial

There are many more advanced personal communications
features available to Omnipoint subscribers who select the Value
Feature Package and Advanced Feature Package.
Here’s a brief description.
> Caller ID. Know who is calling you before you answer –
don’t miss important calls, don’t take unwanted calls. Caller
ID lets you screen incoming calls by showing the originating
number of most calls in your handset’s display. You may
choose to answer the call or allow your Answering Machine to
answer.
> Information Services. Stay well informed on the go –
depending on the Omnipoint plan you choose, your handset’s
screen will display New York Times news headlines, weather
forecasts, lottery drawing numbers, daily horoscopes, sports
updates, general business news, or even stock quotes on
demand.
> Alphanumeric Operator-Assisted Paging. Receive a
text message when you can’t take a call – callers can dictate a
message to an Omnipoint operator who will forward it directly
to your handset.
> Group Voice Mail & Intelligent Voice Mail. Take your
Answering Machine to the next level – depending on the
Omnipoint plan you choose, you can benefit from these
powerful convenience features. Group Voice Mail gives you
additional message storage and lets you reply to and forward
messages to other Omnipoint subscribers. Intelligent Voice
Mail adds even more message storage, plus enhanced message
services such as Instant Call-Back to the person who left a
voice mail message.
