was selected.
5. When there is no best buddy set at PC or handset you will not be allowed to set Best
Buddies as your active buddy list view.
If the option is selected - the handset will prompt "Buddy List Empty !" (see screen F7).
The buddy list view will not change and remain as your previous setting.
6. If your current active view is Best Buddies and for some reason you have remove all
your best buddies from your best buddies list either through your iVo PC window or via
the handset menu so your best buddies buddy list becomes empty - your active view
will default back to Show All view.

no buddy online at the time of setting.
If the option is selected - the handset will prompt "No Buddies Online" (see screen F16).
Back (KEY_SOFT_2) will take you back to the idle display.
The next time you enter the buddy list you will see your Online Only buddy list, if there
are any buddies online.
8. SkypeOut numbers are treated as online buddies so they will always show on
Online Only buddy list.
9. The default setting shall be Show All active view with all buddies list alphabetically.
BUDDY LIST CHARACTERISTICS:
1. All buddies are grouped in the following orders:
> Skype
> SkypeOut
contacts and are listed alphabetically.
For example,
Skype contacts: Lesley
Nush
Office
Paul
SkypeOut contacts: Jenny
Natalie
Nick
Nush
Office
Paul
2. If you perform a search for a contact beginning with N (press KEY_6 twice), you will
see:
Natalie (SkypeOut)
Nick (SkypeOut)
Nush (Skype)
Nush (SkypeOut)
Note: it is possible to perform alpha search in all active view modes.
3. While you are on the buddy list if the current active view is set to Best Buddies or
Show All and buddies' status have changed from online to offline, away to online, etc...
you will see the specific buddy status (status icon) changing in real time, without buddy
moving from its location on the buddy list.
4. However, for Online Only view if a buddy's status has changed from online to offline -
you will see his status icon refreshed to offline but he will not be removed from your
active buddy list view until the next time you enter the buddy list.
Another case is where another buddy comes online while you are viewing the
Online Only buddy list - you will only see him online on your buddy list the next
time you enter the buddy list.
