Traveler 8.5: “Wipe device” – Follow Up

I a recent post I wrote about the “wipe device” feature that is new with Traveler 8.5 and does not work on my Nokia E61i.
I created a PMR to clarify, if the “wipe device” feature is available for Nokia S60 devices als well.

Today IBM came up with the following answer:

This error message is as designed. The Traveler 8.5 client for Nokia
S60 does not support the device wipe feature or the device security 
policy feature. Performing the wipe will block the device from syncing
with the server until a "Clear wipe" is performed.

and a second one:

Hello Ulrich

Following on from our phone conversation today I have created an 
enhancement request SPR # PPOR7NCEFE  requesting that this future be 
added to future releases. ...

Name Lookup

Traveler 8.5 come with some new features. One feature that is still missing is the name lookup. It was supposed to be in Traveler 8.5 but isn’t.

Found this information on Bastian Wieczorek’s blog

The name lookup feature of Lotus Notes® Traveler allows mobile users to search for and find information about users in the Domino® directory, or remote directories if directory assistance is configured. The name lookup feature can be accessed by selecting Lookup Name on the tools menu of the Lotus Notes Traveler client. By default, name lookup returns the first 25 results for a given query and returns names, telephone numbers, and e-mail addresses. You do have the option to customize the name lookup feature to best fit your needs.

isn´t included in the 8.5 Release. It is planed to add it in a later release.
