Abstract

The widespread of the mobile communication is obvious in our days. More and more mobile devices are used in different domains: pagers. mobile phones. Pocket PCs etc. Pocket PC is a mobile computer included in the category of Personal Digital Assistant (PDA). It accomplishes all the functions of an organizer (address list, calendar, meeting list etc.) plus other more complex applications. An advanced version of a Pocket PC is the Pocket PC Phone Edition. Examples of models are: XDA and MDA. It is a Pocket PC plus mobile telephony capabilities. The need of connecting together more and more mobile devices and particularly the Pocket PCs to different networks (GSM, GPRS) became urged. The paper presents a complex software interface for the mobile telephony hardware module of the Pocket PC Phone Edition. The application offer facilities such as: navigation in contacts data bases from the device and from the SIM card, sending SMSs to contacts from the data bases, indication if SMSs are received, visualization of all the received, missed or sent from the device calls, receiving and sending phone calls. A very simple and intuitive graphical user interface was developed.
