Many presence engines have only a few presence states, such as Available or Away
The presence engine Microsoft has developed behind Lync Server is referred to as Enhanced Presence
Is a combination of a numerous presence states, access levels, interruption management, automated updates, application integration, location information, and multiple points of presence (MPOP)

In Lync, you control what information your contacts can see about you by setting their relationship to you. The table indicates what contacts at each level can see
Lync users are able to restrict their presence to users who are in their contact list
By default, this feature is not enabled OCS 2007 R2 users can connect to Lync Server
2010 Communicator 2007 R2 does not provide the
capability to set these enhanced privacy controls

Lync Mobility

Lync mobile clients allow you to communicate with your work identity so you can stay in touch with your contacts without being tied to your desk
Not all the options are available on all the platforms so, first of all, a link to the comparison matrix from Microsoft (comparison matrix for Lync clients features)
