Voice dialing
You can make a phone call by saying a voice tag that has been added to a
contact card. Any spoken word(s) can be a voice tag. Before using voice
dialing, note that:
• Voice tags are not language dependent. They are dependent on the
speaker's voice.
• Voice tags are sensitive to background noise. Record them and make calls
in a quiet environment.
• Very short names are not accepted. Use long names and avoid similar
names for different numbers.
Note: You must say the name exactly as you said it when you recorded
it. This may be difficult in, for example, a noisy environment or during
an emergency, so you should not rely solely upon voice dialing in all
circumstances.
1 In the Contacts directory, open the contact card to which you want to
add a voice tag. You can have only one voice tag per contact card.
2 Scroll to the number to which you want to add the voice tag and select
Options > Add voice tag.
Example: You can use a person’s name for a voice tag, for example,
‘John’s cell.’
3 Press Start to record a voice tag. After the starting tone, say clearly the
word(s) you want to record as a voice tag. Wait until the game deck plays
the recorded tag and saves it. A symbol can be seen next to the
number in the contact card indicating that a voice tag has been added to
it.
To view a list of voice tags you have defined, select Options >
Contacts info > Voice tags in the Contacts directory.
Note: You can add a voice tag to up to 25 phone numbers.

You can now take text messaging to the next level by experiencing IM in a
wireless environment. You can engage in IM with friends and family, even if
they are on different mobile systems or on the Internet.
IM is different from using SMS or e-mail because you can have a two-way or
group conversation where all messages within the conversation are displayed
in one screen as an ongoing dialogue. The contact list feature shows you
when your friends, family members, and colleagues are online and available
to exchange instant messages. Simply select the name, write the message,
and send it. Your message stays on the screen. The reply appears on the screen
below your original message so that you can track the conversation. As new
messages appear and the screen fills up, the older messages disappear.
Note: If Instant Messaging is not available from your wireless service
provider, it may not appear in your phone's menu.
Note: Contact your service provider for more information about
signing up for IM services.
