The present invention provides methods, devices, and systems for maintaining the security of portable electronic devices. More specifically, the present invention leverages existing touch-screen technology to secure the electronic device. The electronic device may require a user to touch a key having a certain number of contact points to the touch-screen to verify that the user is allowed access to the electronic device or applications supported thereby.

A tooltip is updated dynamically as a user continues to hover a cursor over any displayed item for which additional information is available. The initial tooltip is terse or has one type of information, while the updates add more or substitute different information. Tooltips are created dynamically from whatever information is available about displayed items at the time. A client displays a web page, while a server identifies displayed items for which additional information is available, obtains the information, and either provides the information to the client to generate tooltips therefrom or generates the tooltips and provides them to the client.

Automatically generating, and providing multiple levels of, tooltip information over time

The present invention is directed to a speech enabling gateway system that can provide a speech recognition capability to signal-based adjunct processors, such as DTMF-based adjunct processors. The gateway, in one configuration, conferences two or more channels together and performs speech recognition on data streams carried by one or both of the channels. Spoken commands are mapped to appropriate signals for the signal-based adjunct processor.
