Industrial design

Sony Ericsson P1 is a thin and sleek UMTS smartphone, with a highly contemporary look. The slim form factor makes the phone easy to carry, hold and use. The main focus in Sony Ericsson P1 is efficient communication and messaging, with the most versatile ways of entering text.

The large bright touchscreen (2.6" QVGA TFT, 262 k colours), the on-screen keyboard, handwriting recognition and the dual function keyboard support easy and versatile messaging. Auto correction, word completion and keyboard illumination all improve the texting and dialling functionality of the phone.

To navigate menus and select items there is a Jog Dial and a Back button close to each other on the side of the phone. A long press on the Back button in Standby view locks the keyboard.

Alternatively the user can use a fingertip or the included stylus to navigate menus and select items.

For Internet access there is a button on the side of the phone, which directly opens the Browser of the phone.

With the integrated 3.2 megapixel camera at the back of the phone, the user can take pictures and video clips and store them in the phone memory or on a memory card. The megapixel quality gives excellent results when images are printed or viewed on a computer or TV.

When using the camera the viewfinder is displayed in landscape orientation. The camera has a photo light which acts as a flash.

Technologies in detail

This chapter offers a detailed description of the technologies available in this product.

16 May 2007

Phone applications

White paper Sony Ericsson P1

The following call features have been included in Sony Ericsson P1:

• Ongoing call menu: Sony Ericsson P1 has a dynamic ongoing call menu that changes to help the user perform actions quickly and simply.

• Accept calls: users can specify which calls to accept and which calls to reject.

• Rich call functionality: Sony Ericsson P1 allows SMS and MMS messages, as well as contact cards to be easily sent during a call.

Video call

With the speed of UMTS and video call functionality, the Sony Ericsson P1 can be used to share news face-to-face with your business colleagues, family or friends. During a video call, the stream can be switched from the front VGA camera to the back megapixel camera. Use the megapixel camera to share images, such as scenery, with the video call recipient.

One of the camera feeds can be swapped to show a stored picture, allowing the callers reaction to be seen.

• Call notes: Sony Ericsson P1 can launch Notes during a call. The note is automatically named with the other party’s number, name (if known), time of call and date. The user can start writing in the note immediately.

• Follow up call: Sony Ericsson P1 can automatically create follow up call tasks. The task contains the phone number, contact name, time of call, and date of call.

• Speakerphone.

The camera can be set up to automatically switch on when you receive a call.

The VGA camera is mounted in portrait mode. Landscape video call images are produced from the portrait image feed by clipping the top and bottom of the portrait image. This affects the resolution of the VGA camera and causes a zooming effect.

In video call mode there is no support for Bluetooth headsets.

Business telephony

Corporations have traditionally used fixed-line and DECT phones in the office, but now there is a strong trend towards the use of mobile phones to access business telephony features. Of prime importance, however, is that users can still access the features and functionality of their corporate communication system, no matter which phone they are using. Sony Ericsson P1 can interact with the following corporate systems:

• A Corporate switch PABX, (Private Automatic Branch Exchange), equipped with a mobile extension port, (like the Ericsson MD110 and BusinessPhone).

• A mobile centrex service, if provided by the operator.

• A telephony server located at the operator’s or customer’s premises.

Feature buttons

The user activates corporate features by selecting commands from a list, which can be dynamically sent by the server via an IP link, or pre-configured by the company’s IT manage, the operator or a service provider. Each command displays a text description of the function.

17 May 2007

White paper Sony Ericsson P1

When a command is selected, pre-configured DTMF tones are used to communicate the desired function to the server. The phone can even be used to send data that the user is prompted to provide, such as the date they will be back from a business trip. Feature commands and text descriptions have to be programmed using XML and then imported into the phone.

Ongoing call features are reached from the active call view.

Offline commands and corporate telephony settings can be accessed by pressing the ‘corporate telephony’ icon once a calling card has been set up. Activating a command will result in an IP packet being sent to the server.

Routing of corporate calls

If a company uses a PABX, calls must be routed via the PABX to gain access to corporate features and resources. Sony Ericsson P1 can route outgoing calls to the corporate switch, instead of to the dialled B-party. To complete a call, the B-number is then sent to the mobile extension port of the PABX and the call set-up is completed. This process is completely transparent to the user.

A user may dial either an internal number, such as, 1234, or a public number, like +468 123 4567. Sony Ericsson P1 can be set to bypass the switch for certain types of calls.

Configuring the phone for the company

The person responsible for the corporate communication services defines how the phone shall be configured. This person may be the company's IT manager, the operator or a service provider. They define what feature commands shall be displayed in the phone, how these commands interact with the PABX and what text is displayed. They also define how Sony Ericsson P1 should handle calls to and from the corporate switch. This is all done in an XML-structured configuration file, with the extension .pbx. Once created, this configuration file can be easily installed onto Sony Ericsson P1.

To ensure that only authorized personnel have access to the PABX, approved mobile phone numbers are added to the list of mobile extensions in the PBX, and only these numbers will be able to use the facilities available.

PIM applications

The 160 MB storage space designed for user data is where the PIM applications data is stored. As this is a dynamic memory it is impossible to state which number of contacts, email messages, and so on that can be stored in this part of the memory. For example, fewer email messages make room for more contacts.

From the perspective of synchronization performance, however, there are requirements (which the phone meets). See “Synchronization capacity” on page 44 for more information.

18 May 2007

Contacts

White paper Sony Ericsson P1

The Contacts application in Sony Ericsson P1 holds the details of all the user's contacts. It is fully integrated with the phone and other PIM applications. Each contact can contain multiple phone numbers and email addresses, names, addresses, birthday details, anniversary details, personal notes and a picture or photograph. Most of this information will typically be transferred to Sony Ericsson P1 when it is synchronized with a computer application such as Microsoft® Outlook® or Lotus Notes®. Contact data can also be added and edited on Sony Ericsson P1. Local and remote synchronization is possible using the SyncML standard. See “Synchronization and data transfer” on page 42 for more information.

Data can also be beamed to and from Sony Ericsson P1 using infrared and Bluetooth™ connectivity. It can also be sent and received using Messages. See “Object exchange – 'Send as'” on page 45 for more information.

Contacts are displayed in a list, which may be filtered by folder such as business or personal. To see a contact’s details, select the contact. Tap the icons alongside the contacts details to launch a phone call, a new message or a URL in the browser.

Calls received from new numbers can automatically cause the user to be prompted to save the number.

Contact details can be added to a distribution list. Distribution lists can be used to send the same email, SMS, EMS or MMS message to groups of contacts.

Calendar

The Calendar application keeps track of appointments and events and enables reminder alarms to be set. The calendar view has been enhanced to display the selected day’s events on the screen.

Calendar entries are displayed in local time, but all appointments and reminders are saved in UTC (Coordinated Universal Time). If the user moves to a different time zone the calendar updates the

appointments and reminders automatically. Meeting invitations can be received by email and added to the Calendar.

The alarm signal can be personalized using sound clips. Appointments can be shared using infrared, Bluetooth™ connectivity, and also by Messages. Local and remote synchronisation are both supported using SyncML. See “Synchronization and data transfer” on page 42 for more information. The Chinese models support the lunar calendar.

19 May 2007

Notes

Notes provides a quick means of making notes in either text or sketch format. Notes can be launched during a call. The note is automatically named with the other party’s number, name (if known), time of call and date.

Time and alarm clock

For the alarm to work, the phone must be switched on. If the alarm is used to wake the user up, Flight mode is recommended.

• Rename recordings

• Save recordings to the phone or a memory card

• Delete recordings

The music recognition function, TrackID™, is available from Sound recorder. See “Music recognition – TrackID™” on page 33 for more information.

Calculator

The Calculator has the features of a standard desk calculator, and is always available from the application launcher.

Timer

The Timer application can be used to remind the user within a certain amount of time. The application is hidden until the time has passed. A message is displayed and a sound is played

exactly when the time has passed.

Messaging

Sony Ericsson P1 supports the following standards:

POP3 POP is used to retrieve and delete messages from an incoming mail server in the

network.

IMAP4 IMAP is also used to copy, retrieve, move and delete messages from an incoming mail

server. IMAP has more features than POP, such as remote folders. IMAP4 also offers support for the IDLE command, which if supported by the server, offers push capabilities.

SMTP SMTP is used to send messages from a mail client to a mail server.

MIME MIME is a format that describes data, such as, defining the attachments included in

email.

21 May 2007

White paper Sony Ericsson P1

Most of the standards above are supported by Internet Service Providers and many corporate environments. Sony Ericsson P1 is supplied with Internet and email wizards which help users easily configure an email account. OTA (Over The Air) configuration of email and ISP accounts is supported.

Sony Ericsson P1 supports SSL and TLS encryption.

Automatic polling can be used so that email is automatically collected and presented in the Inbox. Controls are provided to filter messages based on size, enabling cost and download time to be managed.

Another option enables only email headers to be presented in the inbox. Headers are quick to download. The user may read and select headers and request the message to be downloaded if necessary.

If IMAP4 is used you can enable the IDLE command to keep connected to the email server. This allows the server to push new messages directly to the Sony Ericsson P1 as they arrive.

• SIS files

• JAR/JAD files

•Themes

• vObjects (vCalendar, vCard, vNote, vBookmark)

√ cбдЙ=йкзЗмЕЙЗ=бе=нЬЙ=ЗзЕмгЙен=ЙЗбнзкл

Attachments may be viewed using the preinstalled viewers for Microsoft Word, Microsoft Excel, Microsoft PowerPoint and Adobe™ Acrobat™ Reader™ (PDF). See “Quickoffice™” on page 24 for more information.

A signature may be set up so that essential details are automatically copied to the end of each outgoing email.

The supplied Sony Ericsson PC Suite enables email to be synchronized with Microsoft Outlook and Lotus Notes®. During synchronization, new email from the computer is transferred in to the corresponding 'synchronized email account' inbox on Sony Ericsson P1. Messages and replies written using this account on Sony Ericsson P1 are transferred and sent via the computer.

Web based email can, of course, be accessed using the Sony Ericsson P1 browser.

Email transmission is performed in the background, making it possible to perform other messaging functions during transmission.

A list of recently used addresses are available when creating a message. Sony Ericsson P1 allows distribution lists to be created and sender ID information is sent with message alerts.

Sony Ericsson P1 can send any type of attachment, including the following:

• Pictures

• Video clips

• Audio files

Push email

Push email is a method of 'pushing' or forwarding email to mobile devices as soon as a message reaches the email server. These solutions may also include calendar and contacts synchronization.

Email folders

Messaging accounts have the following folders: Inbox, Outbox, SIM, Draft and Sent. Additional folders may be created, see “Local folders” on page 22 for more information.

Local folders

To improve the organization of your folders you can create more folders locally on Sony Ericsson P1. Local folders are only visible in the Messaging application. Local folders cannot be created on a Memory Stick Micro™ (M2™).

Push email solutions allow email messages to be delivered in the background in the same way as SMS or MMS messages.

22 May 2007

White paper Sony Ericsson P1

Sony Ericsson P1 is prepared for these solutions with Exchange ActiveSync pre-installed. A rich set of other third party applications are available, for example, OneBridge, Intellisync, BlackBerry, Seven Duality, and Visto Mobile.

Push methods

The various solutions use different methods to push messages, usually IP push, by listening to dedicated ports when a session is active. This is similar to instant messaging solutions. Some solutions may also use SMS messages with triggers to the application to start a sync/ download, sometimes referred to as pseudo-push.

Security

All solutions use end-to-end security using SSL, 3DES or AES encryption. Most solutions are based on the use of a fixed password for push email. Initially key exchange is also done by using device parameters such as the IMEI number. A few solutions combine push with one-time passwords that are limited for a certain amount of time before being re-entered. Many solutions have functionality

for enforcing screen passwords. There is also sometimes theft and loss protection through wipeout commands and lock-out.

Exchange ActiveSync™

The push email application Exchange ActiveSync™ is normally pre-installed in the phone and ready for setup.

With Exchange ActiveSync™ corporate email, calendar items and contacts on a Microsoft™ Exchange Server 2003 or 2007 can be wirelessly synchronized with the corresponding information in the phone. When on the move, the user can easily, for example, look up details in the company global address book or accept a request for a meeting.

All changes in the phone are automatically synchronized with the user’s Exchange Server data. Similarly, all changes to the Exchange Server data are transferred to the phone. With the Direct Push feature activated, synchronization is immediate. If the user, for example, receives a new email in Outlook™ (or a similar client) it is instantly copied to the phone.

Unified mailbox

Area Information

White paper Sony Ericsson P1

Area information is SMS Cell Broadcasting.

An SMS cell broadcast allows information to be sent to all mobile phones in a particular geographical area. Information such as traffic news or local weather reports can be sent to an area covered by a single cell or to the entire network.

Broadcast messages are organised into a number of channels. This allows different types of messages to be broadcast on different channels. Using the phone, users can choose which broadcast channels to subscribe to. The requested text messages are received, the message either

Quickoffice™

Quickoffice™ is an application that can be used to view and edit Microsoft Word, Excel, PowerPoint and text documents. It can also be used to create new documents and spreadsheets.

Quickoffice™ scans Sony Ericsson P1 and displays a File manger which lists all compatible files (.xls, .doc, .ppt, and .txt) depending on where they are in the phone (the internal memory, memory card, or email can be searched). The File manager view can be changed to only display files that are compatible with one of the support programs.

From the File manager you can delete, move or copy documents, create new documents, and open existing ones. You can also send documents using any of the methods available on the device (email, MMS, infrared, WLAN or Bluetooth™ connectivity).

Broadcast subscriptions are controlled from the Area information dialog.

When a user is subscribed to channel 50, and this channel is supported by their network, the ID of the current cell (or group of cells) is displayed below the network operator name in the phone display. This is often the telephone area code or postal code of the current location.

Documents can be transferred to and from Sony Ericsson P1 using email, MMS, infrared, WLAN, or Bluetooth™ connectivity. Also memory cards can be used. Quickword™ opens files created with Microsoft Word 97, 2000, XP and 2003 and are saved in Microsoft .doc format.

When a document is opened for editing, a copy of the document is created so that the original file is intact. When saving a file, Quickword™ creates a native Microsoft Word file.
