Sony Ericsson T102 Cell Phone User Manual


 
White Paper T100/T102
13 September 2002
The T100/T102 supports most of the features
specified in the EMS standard. It has a number of
pre-defined EMS pictures stored in the phone, plus
space for user-defined pictures that can be sent to
other phones in EMS messages. Moreover, there
are pre-programmed animations and sound effects
that can be used to enhance a message and make
it more personal.
WAP services
The typical WAP client is a small, portable device
which is connected to a wireless network. This
includes mobile phones, pagers, smart phones,
PDAs and other small devices. In these devices,
you have a limited user interface, low memory and
computing power compared to desktop and laptop
computers.
The WAP browser in the T100/T102 is compliant
with WAP 1.2.1, including security according to
WTLS class 2. It is designed for WML and cannot
read ordinary HTML pages, but it is suitable for
interaction with customer services, e.g. ticket res-
ervation. It is also handy when you want to access
text-based information, such as timetables, share
prices, exchange rates, Internet banking and other
interactive services.
Using WAP in the T100/T102
The built-in WAP browser gives the user portable,
fast and secure access to a wide variety of serv-
ices, with the possibility of personalized services.
WAP in the T100/T102 offers new opportunities to
companies and service providers:
Push service
A useful feature for companies and service provid-
ers to push contents or service indications to work
groups or customers. This is used for notifications,
mail alerts, messaging, news, stock quotes, con-
tacts, meeting requests, games etc.
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.
Adapt to phone type
When creating a WAP service, you want to make
sure that the user experience is what you intend,
regardless of client device type. The function User
Agent Profile is supported by the T100/T102 to
allow the contents to be automatically optimized
for the phone.
Standard bearer type
The T100/T102 accesses WAP over a standard
GSM Data connection.
Option key when browsing
During WAP browsing, a long press on YES gives
the user immediate access to a dynamic option
menu when using WAP services, similar to a mouse
right-click in PC programs.
Bandwidth efficiency
One of the key advantages WAP has over text-
based HTML pages on mobile devices, is the
bandwidth efficiency for communication. This is
due partly to the fact that the WAP application is
communicated to the wireless devices in the form
of binary encoded data.
