Pocket Outlook Integration

Wouldn't it be nice if you didn't have to remember to mute your Pocket PC volume when you went to a meeting or appointment so you won't be interrupted?  What if you didn't have to remember to turn the volume back on after the meeting? What if it "happened" all by it self and only for the meetings you really want it to? That's exactly what MeetingMute's Pocket Outlook Integration provides!  Simply select the categories of meetings you want the volume muted for and MeetingMute does the rest.  If for some reason you need the volume back on during a muted meeting, simply open up the MeetingMute dialog and select the restore option (There is even a way of restoring the volume without opening the dialog).

Passive Interface Design

MeetingMute has been designed to work unobtrusively in the background.  Once installed and configured, you can almost forget that it is there -- except that your sounds are heard when they are suppose to be and silent when they are not.  With MeetingMute you can have confidence that you won't miss a reminder because you forgot to restore the volume or another program changed your sound settings.

Sound Protection

With a device as complex as a Pocket PC, inevitably there are going to be situations where things happen that shouldn't.  A poorly behaved program or interaction between one or more programs and the operating system will change your sound settings, leaving audible events and reminders unreliable at best.  Unfortunately this happens all too often on the original Pocket PC.  With Pocket PC 2002, Microsoft has made some progress, but there are still situations that can cripple your sound settings.  To solve these issues and make audible events and reminders more reliable, MeetingMute offers Sound Protection.  Sound Protection monitors your sound settings and ensures that they remain unchanged.  Sound Protection can be configured to provide a warning dialog when your sound settings are changed or in its most useful configuration, to automatically restore your preferred settings when changes are detected.   

Muting Options for Every Occasion

MeetingMute offers may ways to express a muting interval.  From the completely automated Mute for Meeting, to the simple Mute Until Next Power On.  You can mute for a specified number of minutes or until a specified time.  MeetingMute's Extend Mute feature adds yet another level of flexibility.  If you happen to be using your Pocket PC when the mute interval expires, MeetingMute will automatically extend the interval until the next power on when the Extend Mute feature is enabled.  Imagine that you are playing a noisy shoot-em-up game in that board room meeting-- not that you would do this, but just imagine (and if you never get into the board room, think of another potentially embarrassing situation)-- and have the volume muted so that no one will hear you.  The meeting is suppose to last until 10:00, but is running a little long.  All of a sudden at 10:00 the volume is restored (because that's what MeetingMute does) and everyone is treated to the sounds of your latest conquest... 

With the Extend Mute feature enabled, you can continue on without disturbing anyone.  The volume will automatically be restored the next time you power on your Pocket PC.
