Monitoring Buddies
You can monitor the status of all the contacts in your buddy list from the idle
screen (if your buddy has a Speed Dial Key), or from the Buddy Status list.
Monitoring Buddies from the Idle Screen
Your phone automatically assigns a buddy to a Speed Dial Key (if one is
available). The Speed Dial Key displays an icon and status indicator (a vertical
bar on the far-right of the key) that indicate the buddy’s status.
The following table shows the presence icons and status indicators that
display on the Speed Dial Key to indicate a buddy’s status.
The following figure shows a phone that is monitoring two buddies: Lauren

Out to Lunch, or Be Right Back.
