A refrigerator storage system is described. The refrigerator storage system comprises a display having a home screen and a processor coupled to the display. The processor is configured to display at least one widget that provides an operation on the display, wherein the at least one widget comprises an interface portion providing direct access to a feature of the widget, wherein the direct access to the feature of the widget is provided from the home screen.

Refrigerator storage system having a display

A food storage apparatus and a control method thereof are provided. The food storage apparatus includes a display; and a processor configured to control the display to display a user interface (UI) including one or more icons for controlling a execution screen of a application on a side region of the execution screen of the application while the execution screen of the application is displayed, wherein the application a view inside application providing an image obtained by photographing the inside of the food storage apparatus, and the processor controls the display to display the UI on the image obtained by photographing the inside of the food storage apparatus. Accordingly, the food storage apparatus may provide various services as compared to the conventional food storage apparatus, and may provide the UI for the service execution in the form that the user may easily and rapidly use the UI.

Food storage apparatus and control method thereof

A control circuit determines when a user of a corresponding portable communication device is presently driving a vehicle and then, in response to detecting this use state, automatically answer incoming communications and provide at least two contact options to the sender. One of these contact options can comprise the option to speak with the user during the incoming communication. Another of these contact options can comprise recording a voice message for the user and discontinuing the incoming communication without the sender communicating with the user. The control circuit can determine whether the user is presently driving a vehicle by relying upon a direct acknowledgement of the user and/or by indirect means.

Method and apparatus pertaining to the dynamic handling of incoming calls

A method, computer readable storage medium, and electronic device are provided which operates on hierarchical data having a plurality of levels by detecting one of a plurality of gestures on a touch-sensitive input mechanism of the electronic device. Each of the plurality of gestures is associated with a different level in the hierarchical data.

System and method for controlling an electronic device

A control circuit determines when a user of a corresponding portable communication device is presently driving a vehicle and then, in response to detecting this use state, automatically answer incoming calls and provide at least two contact options to the caller. One of these contact options can comprise the option to speak with the user during this call. Another of these contact options can comprise recording a voice message for the user and discontinuing the incoming call without the caller speaking with the user. The control circuit can determine whether the user is presently driving a vehicle by relying upon a direct acknowledgement of the user and/or by indirect means.

Example methods and apparatus to display mobile device contexts are disclosed. An example method includes displaying a first context in a user interface of a mobile device based on first device platform information, the first context including a first arrangement of information, graphics, and application icons that are associated with the first device platform information, determining that second device platform information received after the first device platform information corresponds to a second context, the second context being different from the first context and including a second arrangement of information, graphics, and applications that are associated with the second device platform information, and displaying the second context in the user interface replacing the first context without prompting a user of the mobile device.

Methods and apparatus to display mobile device contexts

A method and communication device for determining contextual information is provided. Textual information is received from at least one of an input device and a communication interface at the communication device. The textual information is processed to automatically extract contextual data embedded in the textual information in response to the receiving. Supplementary contextual data is automatically retrieved based on the contextual data from a remote data source via the communication interface in response to the processing. The supplementary contextual data is automatically rendered at the display device in association with the contextual data in response to receiving the supplementary contextual data.

Communication device for determining contextual information

A method for associating sounds with different keypresses, involving receiving an input of a first keypress from a keyboard including a plurality of keys, wherein the keyboard is associated with a computing device, determining whether a key corresponding to the first keypress is one of a plurality of significant elements, wherein the plurality of significant elements is a subset of the plurality of keys, determining a first sound event associated with the key, when the key is one of the plurality of significant elements, and outputting a first sound associated with the first sound event.

A rackmount system for a component may include outer slide members that couple with inner slide members. The outer slide members may be coupled to a rack with slam latches. The slam latches may couple with rails of the rack when the slam latches are placed against the rails. The inner slide members may be coupled to a component. The inner slide members may include tabs that engage slots in a chassis of the component to couple the inner slide members to the component. An inner slide assembly may include an inner latch that couples with the outer slide member to inhibit movement of the inner slide member relative to the outer slide member. The rackmount system may include a locking mechanism that locks the component relative to the rack.

A method for recording an audio broadcast by user preference has been developed. The method includes recording an audio broadcast and then converting the broadcast to text. The text is then scanned for content that has been designated as preferred by the user. If such content if found in the text, the recording of the audio broadcast is saved for future use.

Method for recording an audio broadcast by user preference

An integrated information appliance includes a central processing unit for executing an action in response to a user request, a storage for storing information for use by the central processing unit in responding to the user request, and a cradle which includes a scanning device for scanning an image and storing the scanned image in the storage. An information pad is removably mounted on the cradle. The information pad includes a screen display for displaying information to a user and for receiving information and requests from the user and a plurality of application buttons for sending a request to the central processing unit to perform a specific action.

Integrated information appliance

A mountable computer system includes a primary system structure and a cover. The cover is mountable to a support structure and supports the primary system structure therein. The primary system structure includes one or more connectors for attaching cables to the system. The cover is adapted to enable mating between cables and the primary system structure when inserted therein. The cover and primary system structure are also adapted to enable translation of the primary system structure in the cover with cables attached. A method for accessing computer system internal components includes: disengaging a primary system structure from an inserted position in a cover; sliding the primary system structure to an extended position in the cover while maintaining connection to cables attached to the primary system structure; releasably locking the primary system structure in the extended position in the cover; and accessing internal components disposed on the primary system structure.
