My wishes for the AUX button:
* When the phone is ringing: AUX picks up the phone.
- "Always works", no need to look at the screen to answer!
And the button should blink, so that people not familiar
with the phone gets a hint. (sSch as when asking the girlfriend
to answer the ringing phone.)
- No need for an answer button on the touchscreen, so
one accident less to happen as the user pull the phone out
of a pocket/handbag.
* When a call is in progress: AUX hangs up.
- Again, no need to look at the screen to hang up.
- No need for a "hang up" touch button that accidentally touches
the user's ear! The AUX button is stiff and won't get pressed
accidentally.
* When no phone acitivity is happening:
AUX is user configurable through SHR settings, with actions for
"short" and "long" presses. These actions could be just
about anything, such as:
- lock/unlock screen
- rotate
- launch user specified app (for example, the dialer)
- other stuff one might think of
- bring up a menu with all these actions on the touchscreen
These ideas are phone-centric, but it is a phone. :-) Chances are that
you aren't going to do all sorts of other actions when the phone is
ringing anyway.
