Sony Ericsson V600 Cell Phone User Manual


 
White Paper V600
11 August 2005
SVG-Tiny is a subset of the SVG standard and has
been developed for use with PDAs and mobile
phones. An SVG animation is a text file, based on
XML, that contains specific illustration tags and
attributes that define how the animation should be
presented. The V600 decodes the tags and the ani-
mation is presented in the phone. SVG animation
can be included in MMS messages. The user can
also attach an SVG image to contacts in the
phonebook.
GPRS (General Packet Radio
Service)
GPRS uses Internet-style packet-based technol-
ogy. GPRS gives the benefits of a permanently
available connection to the mobile Internet, but
only uses the radio link for the length of time it
takes to transfer data. GPRS offers the user the
speed needed for satisfactory mobile Internet usa-
bility. The phone supports GPRS Multislot Class 10
(4+2).
WAP 2.0 supporting XHTML™ MP
1.2
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, check boxes, 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 also supports cookies,
often used by Web sites to store site-specific infor-
mation in the browser between visits to the site.
Cookies are often used by e-commerce sites (in
shopping carts and wish lists for example), and to
save the user from entering the same information
more than once.
Cascading Style Sheets (CSS)
Before style sheets were introduced on the Web,
developers had little control over the presentation
of their Web pages. An XHTML document specifies
the structure of the content, which part is a para-
graph, which part is a heading, and so on. It does
not specify how it shall be presented. Browsers use
a default presentation for documents without style
sheets. By adding a style sheet to the document
the developer can control the presentation of the
document, the colours, fonts, and layout.
On the Web, the de facto standard style sheet lan-
guage is Cascading Style Sheets, specified by the
W3C and implemented in Internet Explorer, Net-
scape, and Opera. For mobile phones, the OMA
has identified a subset of CSS and extended it with
OMA specific style rules. The CSS subset and the
OMA extensions are called Wireless CSS (WCSS).
The WAP browser supports WCSS 1.1.
Messenger (Wireless Village)
To ensure inter operability of mobile instant mes-
saging and presence services, Sony Ericsson, Eric-
sson, Motorola and Nokia have created the
Wireless Village Solution, an open standard. The
protocol is bearer-independent and can be imple-
mented in different networks. The Wireless Village
Instant Messaging and Presence Service (IMPS)
includes three primary features:
Presence
Presence information of other Wireless Village
users is received and displayed to indicate their
willingness to communicate. The user’s own pres-
ence information is also sent for others to view. If
the user is interested in another person’s presence
status, he or she can search for this person. If the
person is found, the user may subscribe to his/her
presence information. The presence information is
displayed in a contact list.
Instant messaging
Instant messaging means “point-to-point messag-
ing” between Wireless Village users. An instant
message history of the communication is logged in
a file, which can be read off line. This is a sub-set
file of the whole communication and is limited by
memory.
Groups
The user may join a chatroom and chat with the
other participants/members.
Email
With inbox, outbox, save draft and
reply options, there are all the
functions needed for effective
