Abstract: An electronic device includes a processor, a memory for storing digital content and a display. The processor forms a content navigation bar for the digital content. The content navigation bar is rendered on the display and includes a first section marker corresponding to a first section of the digital content. A set of page markers corresponds to pages within the first section of the digital content. The set of page markers includes a boundary page marker. A second section marker is adjacent to the boundary page marker.

Abstract: An electronic device includes a processor, a first touch screen displaying a page for reading and a second touch screen displaying a pad for writing. An object transition module is executed by the processor. The object transition module includes executable instructions to detect a rotational input applied to the pad. The pad is rotated in accordance with the rotational input, while the original orientation of the page is maintained.

Abstract: An electronic device includes a processor, a first touch screen and a second touch screen. The first touch screen displays an object. An object transition module executed by the processor includes executable instructions to map a gesture applied to the object to a set of object movement parameters and then move the object from the first touch screen to the second touch screen in accordance with the object movement parameters.

Abstract: A data structure for a page configured to be incorporated into a photo book includes a first data field configured to store a position of an image on the page; a second data field configured to store information about an owner of the page; and a third data field configured to store a price associated with the page.

Abstract: A multimedia program bookmarking system provides a bookmark function that allows the user to bookmark a program where he left off. The invention records the frame of the program where the user stopped when the user commands the system to do so. Alternatively, the invention automatically bookmarks the program for the user if the user exits viewing the program. The invention displays an indicator indicating that a bookmark has been saved and the user can, at any time, access his bookmark and continue playback of the program from where he left off. Bookmarks within a single program can be set for different users. Remote controls are encoded for a specific user in a household, allowing each person in the household to have a personal remote control and therefore, personal bookmarks. The invention notes that a set of bookmarks belongs to a certain encoded remote control. The user can alternatively select a specific set of bookmarks manually, through a menu.

Abstract: A multimedia schedule presentation system provides a program guide area which is a list of the programs that are currently airing, was aired, or is scheduled. The program guide area is semi-transparent and overlays on the broadcast program material that the user is currently watching. The invention displays the program guide information in two different modes: two column or three column. The two column mode displays the available channels in a rotating endless list fashion in the left hand column and the programs for the highlighted channel in the right hand column. The current time period is shown above the left column on the screen and is easily changed by the user. Below the time display is the listing of the channels available to the user. Next to each channel number is the station ID and the title of the current program that is being aired. A description of the current highlighted program is displayed above the two columns.
