  • Patent number: 9977783
    Abstract: Systems, methods, devices, and computer program products are provided for generating an arrangement of a user's media files. For example, a user of a first device may use the first device to access a second device. The second device may provide the user with the option to select a profile stored in the second device. The user may then use the first device to communicate, to the second device, a selection of a profile along with a list of music stored in the first device. The second device may then generate a playlist using music identified in the list received from the first device. The second device may generate the playlist based on the selected profile. The second device may then communicate the playlist back to the first device. The profile used by the second device to generate the playlist may be based on a particular theme or on the music preferences of a particular person.

  • Patent number: 7478322
    Abstract: The invention relates to a method and arrangement for reading hypertext pages especially on mobile phone display screens. A device is provided with a program which “understands” some basic rules of written language such as punctuation, conjunctives connecting parts of sentences, and the direction of reading. A low-resolution display (300) is divided into a navigation pane (320) and read pane (330). The selected hypertext page is decoded, and an overall view thereof, preprocessed in a predetermined manner, is brought into the navigation pane. A length of text cut off according to the said rules is brought at a time into the read pane from the area indicated by a cursor (310). The text is so short that it is easily readable as far as the size of the characters is concerned. The device has predefined key functions to move forward or backward in the text one step at a time or by skipping text passages if desired.

  • Patent number: 7430424
    Abstract: In a mobile communication terminal, message content and recipient information is received input from a user during a message creation process. After receiving a triggering signal indicating an end of the message creation process, the message content and the recipient information is analyzed. The analysis results in a indication of a most suitable transmission service for transmitting the message content to the recipient. Then the message content is transmitted via the most suitable message transmission service.
