An embodiment of the invention includes (a) acquiring a tour start location, a tour constraint, and a first user travel preference for a first user; and (b) determining a tour route, including first and second tour segments, based on the tour start location and the tour constraint. The first tour segment is determined based on the first user travel preference. The tour constraint includes a time constraint that is defined by the first user and includes a maximum allowable time for the tour route. Other embodiments are described herein.

Customized travel route system

A keyboard image may be displayed on the display of a processor-based system to facilitate the entry of data. The keyboard image may include a plurality of key images which may be user selected to make data entries. The keyboard image may be positioned on the display and any data entry areas or other associated textual matter may be moved to facilitate the simultaneous display of data entry areas, associated text or graphics, and the keyboard image without substantial obstruction.

Displaying software keyboard images

A graphical user interface in the form of a transparent keyboard may be positioned over an existing computer display. The user may input textual data through the keyboard by selecting keys in the transparent keyboard display. The text entry may then appear on the computer display in non-transparent or conventional format.

Wireless web tablet

A method and apparatus generates and transfers a stream of broadcast information which includes multiple video and audio information segments to a receiving device. Once received, the segments are stored in a cache and indexing information associated with the segments is made available to end users of the apparatus. The end users are then able to select which segment(s) they would like to receive, and the selected segment(s) is transmitted to the requesting user(s). In one embodiment, when a new segment is received, a determination is made as to whether it is a more recent version of another segment already stored by the apparatus. If it is a more recent version, then the older version is overwritten by the newer version.

Method and apparatus for providing broadcast information with indexing

A computer arrangement that offloads computationally intensive tasks from portable computer devices to larger servers is disclosed. A portable computer device that relies on handwriting or speech for input is equipped with a wireless communication subsystem. When a user writes on the display or speaks into the portable computer device, the central processing unit passes the handwriting or speech information to the wireless communication subsystem. While the user is still inputting information, the wireless communication subsystem transmits received information to a communication server. The communication server routes the handwriting or speech information to a server that performs handwriting or speech recognition to translate the information into encoded text. The communication server then transmits the encoded text information back to the portable computer device.
