Publication number: 20120290946Abstract: An email client having multiple screens that may be displayed in different corresponding ones of a plurality of different display portions of a handheld electronic device. The screens of the email client may be related by way of a dependency relationship and/or may provide for control between the various screens. In one embodiment, the email client includes a folder management screen, a message listing screen, a message detail screen, and an attachment screen. Additionally, the email client may be responsive to received gesture inputs to navigate with respect to the screens and/or perform actions with respect to one or more elements (e.g., messages) of the various screens.Type: ApplicationFiled: November 17, 2011Publication date: November 15, 2012Applicant: IMERJ LLCInventors: Rodney Schrock, Sanjiv Sirpal, Alexander de Paz, Aaron VonderHaar, Martin Gimpl, Salvador Soto, Stanley Kurdziel, Paul Webber, Paul Reeves

Publication number: 20120144323Abstract: A dual-screen user device and methods are disclosed for revealing a combination of desktops on single and multiple screens. A determined number of desktops and/or running applications are displayed on dual screen displays conditioned upon inputs received and the state of the device. Desktop displays and applications can be shifted between the screens by user gestures, and/or selected desktop displays. Applications can be moved off of the screens by other user gestures and therefore hidden. Hidden desktops and screens can be re-displayed by other gestures. Desktops and applications are arranged in a window stack that represents a logical order therefore providing a user with an intuitive ability to manage multiple applications and desktops running simultaneously. The user gestures prevent the user from having to open and close the running desktops and applications that otherwise may require laborious efforts by the user to manage the multiple running desktops and applications.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 28, 2011Publication date: June 7, 2012Applicant: IMERJ, LLCInventors: Sanjiv Sirpal, Brett Faulk, Paul Reeves, Alexander De Paz, Rod Schrock, Maxim Marintchenko, Robert Csiki, Eric Freedman, Jared Ficklin, Denise Burton, Misty Cripps, Gregg Wygonik

Publication number: 20120143944Abstract: A mobile computing device with a mobile operating system and desktop operating system running concurrently and independently on a shared kernel without virtualization. The mobile operating system provides a user experience for the mobile computing device that suits the mobile environment. The desktop operating system provides a full desktop user experience when the mobile computing device is docked to a second user environment. A seamless cross-environment workflow is provided in a multi-operating system computing environment. Two or more application programs, running in independent operating systems, share user interaction state information including user data, user settings, and/or application context information. Interaction state information may be shared for applications that are used primarily to access and edit local user content as well as applications that communicate to a remote server or access and navigate other remote content (i.e., Internet-based application, browser).Type: ApplicationFiled: October 3, 2011Publication date: June 7, 2012Applicant: IMERJ, LLCInventors: Brian Reeves, Paul Reeves, Richard Teltz, David Reeves, Sanjiv Sirpal, Chris Tyghe

Publication number: 20120084706Abstract: A dual-screen user device and methods for revealing a combination of desktops on single and multiple screens are disclosed. Specifically, a determined number of desktops and/or running applications can be selectively displayed on dual screen displays conditioned upon inputs received and the state of the device. Desktop displays and applications can be selectively shifted between the screens by user gestures, or moved off of the screens by other user gestures and hidden. The hidden desktops and screens can be re-displayed by yet another gesture. The desktops and applications are arranged in a window stack that represents a logical order of the desktops and applications. Desktops and applications can be selectively launched and added to the window stack. The user can also select where the desktops/applications are to be inserted and where they are first to be displayed after being launched.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 28, 2011Publication date: April 5, 2012Applicant: IMERJ, LLCInventors: Sanjiv Sirpal, Paul Reeves, Alexander de Paz, Jared L.

Publication number: 20110061095Abstract: Methods of securely performing online transactions are described which involve two independently controlled web servers. In order to complete a transaction, a user interacts concurrently with each of the two web servers and authentication may occur between the user and each web server and between web servers. Each of the two web servers provide data which is used to complete the transaction and the data provided by the first web server is communicated directly to the second web server for use in the transaction. In an embodiment, the first web server provides a web page which enables a user to specify a variable which is used in the transaction. This is communicated to the second web server which processes the transaction along with an identifier for the message. The identifier may be used in validating the variable before it is used in processing the transaction. Following completion of a transaction this may be reported in real time to the first web server.Type: ApplicationFiled: April 24, 2009Publication date: March 10, 2011Applicant: THE ICE ORGANISATIONInventors: Nick Wiseman, Paul Reeves, Kumar Duwari, Jacek Stawicki, Colin Franks, George Launchbury, Jayne Lee, Jude Thome
