Design
The c417 sports a slim, sleek clamshell design with a large 128 x 160 color
display with over 65,000 colors. A supplementary, 96 x 64 monochrome OLED
screen on the front of the cover keeps you up to speed on time, date,
battery and signal strength, and more. Up and down buttons for volume
control are placed on the left side of the phone, while most of the phone's
features and on-screen menus are controlled by a five-way center button on
the handset's control pad. There's also a standard jack to accept universal
hands-free headsets, while the phone's charging port is placed on the bottom
of the unit.
Calling Features
With a big 500-contact address book, the c417 is designed to hold all of
your important calling information. The phone also features 40-chord
polyphonic ringtones, and in addition to the built-in ringers, you can
download additional ones from Cingular's MEdia Net service. A vibrate alert
silently notifies you of incoming calls when you want to be discreet, and a
handy speakerphone lets you talk hands-free or hold conference calls.
Meanwhile, ringer and picture ID lets you assign photos and ringtones to
callers.
Messaging, Internet, and Tools
Powerful messaging and Internet capabilities are built into the c417.
Support is provided for sending and receiving pictures, text, graphics,
sound, and video via MMS messages. Instant messaging is also supported via
the AOL and Yahoo! messaging clients. There's even a built-in web browser
for downloads and mobile web browsing if you opt for the MEdia Net service
from Cingular. MEdia Net lets you receive and send emails, read news
headlines, get weather updates, download games and ringtones, and more. T9
text entry, which is a technology that makes it easier for people to enter
words and text on handsets, is built into the unit--a plus for mobile text
messaging users.
A number of handy software tools are bundled with the c417 including a calculator, an alarm, a voice memo recorder, a to-do list, and a calendar.
Entertainment
The c417 takes pictures the way you want to take pictures. The phone allows
you to choose from four different picture resolutions, and sports a digital
zoom feature. And don't forget, the built-in self-timer allows you to get
yourself into the picture. The c417 also allows you to set screensavers,
themes and wallpapers to suit your tastes. The phone is Java enabled as
well, meaning the phone supports games written on the Java platform.

inches. It runs on the 850/900/1800/1900 MHz GSM/GPRS
