    public ReactiveCommand ComposeMessage { get; private set; }

    private readonly _telephony;

    ExampleViewModel(ITelephony telephony)

    {

    	// Cool stuff: Conditions is cross platform portable class library helps

    	// developers to write pre- and postcondition validations in a fluent

        // manner. Usage is completely optional and this is here to act as a

        // safety step/tear down the house if you forget to register an

        // implementation of the TelephoneyService 

        Condition.Requires(telephone).IsNotNull();

        

        _telephony = telephony;

        

        // ReactiveUI is completely optional but you totally should be using it

        // as once you experience building a mobile application declaratively

        // using the Reactive Extensions theres no going back. 

        DialPhoneNumber = ReactiveCommand.Create();

       	

       	DialPhoneNumber.Subscribe(phoneNumber => 

       	{

       		// This is telephony, choose between either video or voice.

       		_telephony.MakePhoneCall(phoneNumber);

       		_telephony.MakeVideoCall(phoneNumber);

       	});

       	

    	DialPhoneNumber.ThrownExceptions

            .Subscribe(ex => {

                UserError.Throw("Is Airplane mode enabled?", ex);

        });

        // ReactiveUI is completely optional but you totally should be using it

        // as once you experience building a mobile application declaratively

        // using the Reactive Extensions theres no going back. 

        ComposeMessage = ReactiveCommand.Create();

       	

       	ComposeMessage.Subscribe(phoneNumber => 

       	{

       		// This is telephony, choose between either SMS or email.

       		_telephony.ComposeSMS(phoneNumber);

       		_telephony.ComposeEmail(new Email("[email protected], [email protected]"));

       	});

       	

    	ComposeMessage.ThrownExceptions

            .Subscribe(ex => {

                UserError.Throw("Is messaging enabled and are there accounts configured?", ex);

        });

    }
