Q: In parameters, do we need a setting for screen saver? Eg. After 5 minutes no action the screen saver will be automaticlly launched.

(Sean Moss-Pultz) A: The screensaver that I have in mind is very simple and won't eat CPU resources. I just want to see time, missed calls, and new messages. I really don't think this needs to be configuratable. When the backlight turns off, this should activate.

Q: In device setting, do we need a power saving mode? For mobile devices, energy consumption should be the first consideration.

(Sean Moss-Pultz) A: I was only planning on using one power save mode. The best one we can. I don't think this needs to be configurable either. Do you agree?

Q: Do we need to give user the choice of store the contact/SMS messages in the SIM card or in the phone?

(Sean Moss-Pultz) A: The contacts application could support this. But I didn't add this to our first version. Does anything think this is important? (IE full SIM SMS, Contact support?)
