Using Caller ID
Caller ID lets you know who’s calling by displaying the number 
of the person calling when your phone rings. Similarly, if you

Responding to Call Waiting
Call Waiting alerts you to incoming calls while you’re on a call

Games
 
You can play a variety of entertaining and graphically-rich 
games on your PCS Phone. 
The following features in this phone may share memory: 
Gallery tones, images, and games. Using such features may 
reduce the memory available for other features that share 
memory. This is especially true with their heavy use (although 
some of the features may have memory allotted to them in 
addition to the amount of memory shared with other features).

memory. In this case, delete some of those features that use 
shared memory before continuing.
