Bi-stable display technology and refresh display technology are integrated into a single device, which manages the use of these technologies to achieve power savings while providing a rich set of display functionalities that support interaction with content in a synergistic manner. Power saving functionality facilitates conservation of battery operating life, and flexible display functionalities enable access, display, and interaction with content in various ways.

Multi-display handheld device and supporting system

A craft menu system, in a presently preferred embodiment, includes a network terminal like an ONT, having a processor and memory and multiple data ports, configurably coupled to a DTMF telephony (e.g., BUTT) test set for installation and testing. The installation, registration and testing information needed by a technician is provided by the ONT to the BUTT set display using convenient Caller ID signaling, and technician data entry is accomplished via the DTMF-enabled keys on the BUTT set. This system allows a single technician, equipped with current standard tools like a BUTT set and without the need for additional tools like a PC or PDA, to install and test a craft menu enabled ONT in a timely and efficient manner.
