Network operators
As multiple applications that need remote synchro-
nization over WAP are developed, there will be an
automatic growth of revenue for network operators.
Local synchronization
Open standard
Synchronization is possible with almost any group-
ware or office program, since the synchronization
method complies with the open standard IrMC 1.1,
as specified by the Infrared Data Association – ref-
erence http://www.irda.org. IrMC 1.1 brings
together the following standards:
vCard 2.1 for address book information
vCalendar 1.0 for appointment and to-do
information
ObEx (Object Exchange) for data exchange
Bluetooth wireless technology or
infrared
The T630/T628 synchronizes using the same proto-
col, regardless of connection type. It connects via
Bluetooth wireless technology, infrared or cable.
The cable is connected either directly to the phone
or to the desktop charger.
Automatic synchronization
When infrared or Bluetooth wireless technology is
switched on in the phone, the synchronization
process starts automatically, as soon as the phone
is within range of a compatible port on a PC or
handheld device (a suitable synchronization pro-
gram must be running on the device).
Intelligent process
A synchronization engine performs the task of syn-
chronizing. For local synchronization, the synchro-
nization engine is an application that runs on the
desktop computer. The synchronization engine
compares, updates and resolves conflicts to
ensure that the information in the phone is the
same as that in the computer.
Local synchronization software and the
T630/T628
PCs equipped with XTNDConnect For Sony Erics-
son will perform synchronization with Microsoft
Outlook. For other groupware environments (Lotus
Notes, etc.), the full version of XTNDConnect PC is
required. By using Bluetooth wireless technology,
infrared, USB or the RS 232 Cable, you can easily
perform a fast, local synchronization.
Integration between XTNDConnect For Sony Erics-
son and Microsoft Outlook provides an embedded
menu for one-key synchronization.
To enhance functionality and compatibility further,
the synchronization software can easily be
upgraded.
The number of units that can talk to each other is
unlimited. One phone can be partner with several
PCs. This ensures that information from both the
work PC and the home PC can be synchronized
with the phone. For users that have both a desktop
PC and a laptop (free version XTNDConnect PC) or
a PDA (free version XTNDConnect PC), it is an effi-
cient way to synchronize data with the phone. This
way, data can also be transferred between PCs to
keep them in sync.
If the synchronization software is upgraded to a full
version of XTNDConnect PC, one PC can be part-
nered with several different phones. This is vital if,
for example, each member in a work group has his/
her own T630/T628, and needs to synchronize with
a PC. It makes it easy, for example, to download a
common company phone directory to the phone
book in each company mobile phone. With the full
version of the synchronization software, other
phone types and handheld devices, such as PDAs
and Windows CE computers, can also be synchro-
nized.
