iPhone - The Phone

iPhone - The Phone
 

With all the incredible features - let's not forget the The iPhone is a phone first.  It allows conferencing, call holding, call merging, caller ID, and integration with other cellular network features and iPhone functions. For example, a playing song fades out when the user receives a call. Once the call is ended the music fades back in to it's original volume.

The iPhone includes a Visual Voicemail feature in conjunction with AT&T Mobility which allows users to view a list of current voicemail messages onscreen, without having to call into their voicemail. Unlike other voice mail systems, messages can be listened to in a non-chronological order, by choosing messages from an on-screen list. AT&T completely reworked their voicemail infrastructure to accommodate this new feature designed by Apple.

The iPhone SMS messages are presented chronologically in a mailbox format similar to Mail, which places all text from recipients together with replies and text messages are displayed in speech bubbles under each recipient's name.
