Abstract

A mobile device controls content partitioning at a separate renderable content storage device of an item of renderable content into multiple partitioned content segments that are each less in size than the entire item of renderable content and that each fit within available memory of the mobile device. The mobile device renders on a display device of the mobile device multiple received content partition identifiers that each identify one partitioned content segment. The mobile device retrieves from the separate renderable content storage device a partitioned content segment of the item of renderable content identified by a user-selected content partition identifier. The mobile device renders the partitioned content segment. The mobile device automatically retrieves, in response to completion of rendering of the partitioned content segment, a second partitioned content segment using a second content partition identifier of the received multiple content partition identifiers.
