More Sametime 7.5 Mobile on Blackberry
Tags :Sametime Blackberry
- I received a comment yesterday asking about the 7100 and SureType. Well an answer was presented in the Sametime Forum that says SureType is possible with a quick manual user intervention. You need to go into Preferences on the mobile device for Display and select Full Screen Input. But then enter doesn't just send the text, you have to click the wheel. I didn't like that much. Luckily mine is the 8703 so I don't have that issue.
- Setting text size bigger than small made it easier to read but took up a lot of real estate which meant scrolling. So the default small font worked for me. Emoticons looked the same.
- Chat history on the mobile device is great. When you jump into a chat it pulls the previous bit of history. That is very cool
- The icon for the 7200 series is just a big blue square. However, on the 8703 it shows as the familiar Sametime icon, even if it was a bit larger than the other desktop icons.
- Port 80 access for tunneling seems to work as Gerco reported, we went for the default 8082 to test.
- The ability to flip between multiple open chats and the buddylist is nice.
- N-Way chats are very cool and interesting.
- Get ready for the standard blue and black text
- Get used to the
option in the click menu. I thought would back me out until I realized it did close Sametime instead of the window I thought I was in. is at the bottom of the scroll list instead of towards the top - I didn't test Quick Find yet, will do when more are online with the new client
- Alert Me should be fun to play with. I wonder if it carries over into the client too, or just the mobile device.
