A method, apparatus, computer program and user interface wherein the method includes: obtaining coordinate information from a first application where the coordinate information uniquely identifies an address as a location in a coordinate space; storing, using a second application, the coordinate information so that the coordinate information is associated with contact information indicative of the address; detecting user selection of a control element associated with the stored contact information; and in response to the detection of the user selection of the control element providing the coordinate information to the first application.

Method, apparatus, computer program and user interface

A user input device includes a sensor capable of sensing surface relief of human skin, a movement detector responsive to variation of the output of the sensor for detecting movement of skin across the sensor, and a user interface apparatus responsive to the movement detector to alert its state in correspondence to the detected movement.

Sensing data input

A user interface for a radiotelephoneis described in which the user is able to select components from a variety of sources including multimedia sources and the Internet. The user is then able to combine the components in a message and furthermore edit them to add expression to the message and to set delivery conditions for the message. The message may be archived for later use or immediately sent to a third party either separately or as an attachment to another file.

User interface for a radiotelephone

A hand held communication device having a display, the display having a plurality of different regions, at least one function being selectable via at least one region and a touch sensitive region, the touch sensitive area being arranged so that movement with respect to the touch sensitive area region causes an indicator to move across said display wherein the indicator is arranged to move only from one region to another.

Handheld devices

A communications terminal handset having a translucent outer casing and a light source arranged for illumination of a substantial area of the casing.

Handset

A system, method and computer program for paginating information received from a content provider so that it may be displayed on any type of user terminal having any size screen and having different types of mechanisms for input of information. This system has a pagination and terminal adaptation module which will calculate the space needed by element to be displayed on a user terminal. The pagination and terminal adaptation module will then determine if sufficient space exits on the user terminal screen to display the element. When sufficient space does not exist on the user terminal screen then the pagination and terminal adaptation module will resize the element when possible in order to make it fit. The pagination and terminal adaptation module accesses a database of user terminal profile information to determine the characteristics of the user terminal as well as the screen size. This system further is able to transmit information in a continuous stream to the user terminal or as a single element that will only update a portion of the user terminal screen. Using this system a user is able to access web site pages regardless of the type of terminal being used and no matter how small the screen size is.

System and method for content adaptation and pagination based on terminal capabilities

A cellular radiotelephone (10) includes a keypad (22), a memory (24), and a display device (20) for displaying information to a user. The radiotelephone is bidirectionally coupled through a wireless interface to a network operating in accordance with a wireless communication protocol. A method comprises steps of (a) composing a text message in the radiotelephone for transmission to the network, (b) before transmitting the text message, entering information into the radiotelephone for specifying a state of at least one protocol element of the wireless communication protocol for placing the wireless communication protocol into a selected configuration, and (c) transmitting the previously composed text message from the radiotelephone to the network using the selected configuration. The user may also specify that a SMS message transmitted from the radiotelephone be converted to another message type (e.g., a facsimile message, a page message, or an electronic mail message) by the network, before being forwarded by the network. Another method of the invention includes the steps of (a) providing in the memory a plurality of sets of variables, each variable relating to a respective protocol element, (b) composing a text message in the radiotelephone for transmission to the network, (c) entering information into the radiotelephone for specifying a value for a selected variable of one of the sets of variables, (d) selecting one of the sets of variables for placing the wireless communication protocol into a selected configuration, and (e) transmitting the text message from the mobile terminal to the network using the selected configuration.
