Gmail
Gmail is Different
Gmail is web-based: Your messages are stored on-line, on GoogleTM
servers but you can read, write, and organize messages by using the
Gmail application on your phone or by using a web browser on a computer.
Because your mail is stored on Google servers, you can search your entire
message history, backed by the speed and power of Google search.
Actions that you take in one place are reﬂected everywhere. For example,
if you read a message in Gmail on your phone, it will be marked as read in
a web browser. And a message that you send using a browser, or even a
draft of a message, is visible in Gmail on the phone.
Gmail is conversation-based: Each message and all replies to it are
grouped in your Inbox as a single conversation. In other email applications,
replies to messages are spread across your Inbox, typically by date
received, so a message and the replies to it are separated by other
messages. Gmail makes it easy to follow the thread of a conversation.
Gmail is organized by labels, not by folders: Gmail allows you to tag
messages with labels, allowing you to organize your conversations in many
different ways. For example, with Gmail you can label a conversation with
your mother about your brother’s birthday present with both “Mom” and
“Dave”. Later, you can search for all the messages containing either label.
In other email applications, each message can only be located in one folder.
You’d have to store each message in the “Mom” folder or the “Dave”
folder, but not both.
Gmail for the phone is optimized for mobile use: Some features are only
accessible on your computer browser. The best place to organize and learn
about Gmail is the web. For example, you can’t use the Gmail application
on the phone to create the labels and ﬁlters that you use to organize your
messages, but you can label a message. Gmail on the web offers complete
information about the service, so it’s the best place to learn about all of the
features of Gmail.
Communication
Gmail is for Gmail: Of course you can use Gmail to send email to any
email address, and anyone can send email to you at your Gmail address.
But if you want to read messages from another email service provider
(using your AOL, Yahoo!, or other email account), you must use the Email
application.

FCC Hearing-Aid Compatibility (HAC) Regulations
for Wireless Devices
On July 10, 2003, the U.S. Federal Communications Commission (FCC)
Report and Order in WT Docket 01-309 modiﬁed the exception of wireless
phones under the Hearing Aid Compatibility Act of 1988 (HAC Act) to
require digital wireless phones be compatible with hearing-aids. The intent
of the HAC Act is to ensure reasonable access to telecommunications
services for persons with hearing disabilities.
While some wireless phones are used near some hearing devices (hearing
aids and cochlear implants), users may detect a buzzing, humming, or
whining noise. Some hearing devices are more immune than others to this
interference noise, and phones also vary in the amount of interference they
generate.
The wireless telephone industry has developed a rating system for
wireless phones, to assist hearing device users to ﬁnd phones that may
be compatible with their hearing devices. Not all phones have been rated.
Phones that are rated have the rating on their box or a label located on the
box.
The ratings are not guarantees. Results will vary depending on the user’s
hearing device and hearing loss. If your hearing device happens to be
vulnerable to interference, you may not be able to use a rated phone
successfully. Trying out the phone with your hearing device is the best way
to evaluate it for your personal needs.
Safety
M-Ratings: Phones rated M3 or M4 meet FCC requirements and are likely
to generate less interference to hearing devices than phones that are not
labeled. M4 is the better/higher of the two ratings.
Hearing devices may also be rated. Your hearing device manufacturer or
hearing health professional may help you ﬁnd this rating. Higher ratings
mean that the hearing device is relatively immune to interference noise.
The hearing aid and wireless phone rating values are then added together. A
sum of 5 is considered acceptable for normal use. A sum of 6 is considered
for best use.
In the example to the left, if a hearing aid meets the M2 level
rating and the wireless phone meets the M3 level rating, the
sum of the two values equal M5. This should provide the
hearing aid user with “normal usage” while using their
hearing aid with the particular wireless phone. “Normal usage” in this
context is deﬁned as a signal quality that’s acceptable for normal operation.
The M mark is intended to be synonymous with the U mark. The T mark
is intended to be synonymous with the UT mark. The M and T marks are
recommended by the Alliance for Telecommunications Industries Solutions
(ATIS). The U and UT marks are referenced in Section 20.19 of the FCC
Rules. The HAC rating and measurement procedure are described in the
American National Standards Institute (ANSI) C63.19 standard.
When you’re talking on a cell phone, it’s recommended that you turn the BT
(Bluetooth) mode off for HAC.
According to HAC policy (KDB 285076), we state this handset has not been
rated for hearing aid compatibility with respect to the Wi-Fi capability.
