Spb Phone Suite … the missing phone features
Spb Software House has released Spb Phone Suite, a collection of all the main phone features you’ve been missing on your Windows Mobile device.
The number of Windows Mobile devices with phone functionality is growing every day. Almost every Windows Mobile 6 device recently announced include phone functionality. Windows Mobile Professional is still not a perfect platform for phone devices, however, lacking such cornerstone phone features as profiles, call filtering, and missed call notifications.
Spb Software House is known for the development of technology that extends the Windows Mobile platform. Spb Pocket Plus, for example, extends the classic Pocket PC functionality and was the best selling Pocket PC application in 2005 and 2006 (according to Handango’s reports). Spb Mobile Shell improves Windows Mobile usability and is the current best selling Pocket PC program at Handango. Now comes Spb Phone Suite that pushes the envelope of the Windows Mobile platform by improving Pocket PC phone functionality.
Profiles
Profile switching is so much a cornerstone feature of any phone that it is very strange that this feature is still lacking from the Professional version of Windows Mobile. Spb Phone Suite profiles not only control phone setting but also WiFi, Bluetooth and backlight level seetings. Spb Phone Suite uses automatic profiles to automatically switch your profiles based upon the situation, like when your headset is plugged in, or your car kit is connected, or you are in a meeting that you previously marked in your calendar as "busy", or you can manually configure a preset time.Missed Call Notifications
Spb Phone Suite gives you the option to have sound notifications upon missed calls or unread SMS messages. This feature helps you not miss your important calls.Reject and Send SMS
Unexpected calls can be really annoying during meetings. With Spb Phone Suite you can immediately send an SMS with predefined text with just two taps after you reject a call.Photo Speed Dial
With Spb Phone Suite you can place your most frequently used contacts right on the Today screen. Spb Phone Suite comes with more than 50 avatars a user can use for photoless contacts.Call Filtering
Call filtering is based on the idea of white and black lists. The call filtering feature has been specially designed for ease of use. This way a user can add unwanted people to the black list with just a few taps.Other Features
There many other features like photos in the call log, the wireless manager, and the Today plug-in, etc., that altogether improve the phone experience and make Windows Mobile almost a perfect platform for modern phone devices.
