When a call comes in, Phone Amego flashes up a semi-transparent status window with the

callers name and image from your Address Book if any.

To refuse an incoming call, press End Call, or Command+Close in the upper left corner of the

window. This will generally send the caller to your voice mail depending on your cell phone

service. Use Close to close the window (or optionally minimize it on to your Dock) without

rejecting the call. The Action menu (bottom right) allows you to open the corresponding Address

Book contact if desired.

Clicking the rolodex card icon (Control-Shift-N) will open a contact card for this caller allowing

you to update any information or keep notes as desired. The card will open with the cursor

positioned to begin typing a note. When you are done typing, you can press Enter to save your

note and close the window. This allows you to add notes at any time during a call without

needing to remove your hands from the keyboard. The card icon will appear in color if there are

previous notes for this caller. Phone Amego uses an open database allowing these cards to be

synchronized automatically with other computers using Dropbox. Anyone who answers a call can

add notes which become available to other users the next time this person calls.

To place a call from your Address Book, click and hold over the label for the desired phone

number. When the menu appears, select Dial with Phone Amego.

Phone Amego will display a semi-transparent window showing the status of your outgoing call.

To cancel, press End Call or Command+close.

If you are redialing or returning a recent call, you can select the corresponding Name or Number

from the Recent submenu. You can also select a phone number that appears on a web page or

in an Email message and press Cmd-Shift-D to use the "Dial with Phone Amego" application

service, or right click to select "Dial with Phone Amego" from the contextual menu that appears

(requires 10.6).

Phone Amego normally appears as a status bar item with a pull-down menu. An optional Tool Tip

affords quick access to key telephone information.

The status bar image will change appearance to indicate the status of the selected telephone

device:

Device not detected (powered off or out of range)

Device detected but not yet initialized (In range)

Connected and ready (registration complete)

Selecting Phone Amego... from the status bar menu opens the main Phone Amego window. Most

of the controls are self explanatory.
