Imaging
With a digital camera attached to your phone, you can
take, view, store and send high-quality pictures over the
air to another mobile phone, as MMS messages, or you
can send them to an email address or Web photo album.
Downloading images from the Web is another
alternative. Thousands of online image collections
already exist on the Web and many sites are already
gearing up to include images for use in mobile phones.
There are various ways to incorporate images and other
multimedia into your communication. You can attach
pictures to people listed in your phonebook and have
pictures or icons of the caller identifying them in your
display.
The pictures are stored in the picture browser in the
phone. From here, the user can select view, thumbnail
or full view, as well as keep track of the number and
size of the pictures stored in the phone.
WAP
Your T226 supports the WAP 1.2.1 browser and
protocol stack, as well as the WAP 2.0 browser. With
WAP 1.2.1, your phone can read WML pages and use
WTLS class 3 security. The added benefit of
supporting the WAP 2.0 browser is the capability to
navigate to pages written in XHTML Mobile Profile
and XHTML Basic markup languages. These two
languages, subsets of the Web standard XHTML, are
supported by all major Web browsers. An XHTML
page can be viewed in both the WAP browser and in
any standard Web browser. All of the basic XHTML
features are supported, including text, images, links,
checkboxes, radio buttons, text areas, headings,
horizontal rules and lists. In addition to WML,
XHTML Mobile Profile, and XHTML Basic, your
phone supports the markup language iHTML.
With the WAP 2.0 browser, cascading style sheets
(CSS) and cookies are supported. CSS enhances
content presentation and style. Cookies are often used
by Web sites to store site-specific information in the
browser between visits to the site. Cookies are often
used by e-commerce sites (shopping carts and wish
lists), and to save the user from entering the same
information more than once.
Full graphic 512 color display
Using Picture Enhancement Technology, the T226
delivers 512 colors on a large display that enhances
viewing, facilitating high-quality multimedia
messaging, and personalized imaging. The standby
display looks like the desktop in a computer, with the
menus presented as icons.
Navigation
There is an easy-to-use 4-directional navigation key.
Using finger or thumb, you can easily navigate the
menu system. When you arrive at the required function
in a menu, instead of pressing Yes, just gently press the
small button in the center of the navigation key and the
feature is activated.
GPRS
GPRS uses Internet-style packet based technology. It
allows users to be permanently connected to the mobile
Internet, but only uses the radio link for the duration of
time that it transfers data. GPRS offers the user the
speed needed for satisfactory mobile Internet usability.
Support is provided for GPRS 3+1.
Localization/Customization
Different markets will be served with appropriate pre-
stored content. In addition, individual operators can be
provided with uniquely customized phones. A
complete list of customization options is available in
the customization specification.
More in-phone functions
Email
The T226 is another Sony Ericsson mobile phone with
a built-in fully functional email client. With inbox,
outbox, save draft and reply options, you have all the
functions you need for effective email communication
in a small and powerful mobile phone. Constantly
connected to a POP3, SMTP or IMAP4 email server
anywhere on the Internet, your T226 stores messages
(without attachments) dynamically, depending on
available memory, and updates your inbox
automatically and over the air. Check your email
anywhere. Reply to email on the move. Friends, family
and business contacts know that when they send you
email, you receive it and can read it and act on it
immediately. You can include pictures in outgoing
emails, but cannot receive attachments. Hyperlinks in
emails 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
