Key functions and features
Multimedia Messaging - Digital
greetings
Reactingtotheenormouspopularityofmobile
phone messaging, Sony Ericsson has
incorporated the latest messaging standard into
the T68i, along with a colour display for an
enhanced imaging experience.
Say it in words, say it with pictures, animate it,
add sound. Multimedia birthday and holiday
greetings are great fun to put together using the
T68i. On vacation, use your mobile phone and
accessories to send a digital postcard with
stylized text, digital pictures of where you are,
and authentic sound clips to friends and family
back home. If, when shopping, you find
something a friend might like, you can instantly
send a digital picture of the item and ask if they
like it.
With MMS, the subscription applications get
more interesting, for example stock information,
movie trailers and weather reports
Imaging
With a digital camera attached to your T68i, 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 e-
mail 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 phone
book 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 2.0 supporting XHTML™
The WAP browser supports the markup
languages of WAP 2.0 – XHTML Mobile and
XHTML Basic. These two 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 XHTML, the WAP browser supports
WML. The user can navigate between WML and
XHTML pages.
WAP 2.0 in the T68i also supports cookies, 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 256 colour display
The large colour display of the T68i 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.
