Abstract: An icon displaying method and an icon display device are provided. The icon displaying method includes displaying on a part of a virtual desktop on a displaying field, wherein the virtual desktop is disposed with a plurality of icons; detecting a selection operation from a gesture; scrolling the icons displayed on the displaying field toward a first direction according to the selection operation from the gesture; according to the first direction, determining whether there is an undisplayed icon in a second direction outside of the displaying field on the virtual desktop, wherein the second direction is opposite to the first direction; and when no undisplayed icon is present in the second direction, rotating at least one icon displayed on the displaying field by an angle toward the first direction based on the selection operation from the gesture.

Abstract: A method of providing time table information and navigation instructions comprises receiving position data associated with a number of pre-determined positions along a transportation route, receiving time table data, receiving position data associated with a reference position, and determining a number of connection routes from the reference position to at least one of the pre-determined positions. Corresponding device and computer program product are also provided.

Abstract: Various embodiments provide an electronic device that includes video storage memory, a video signal receiver, and a video storage controller. The video signal receiver is configured to receive a video stream containing advertising content and program/movie content from a broadcast source. The video storage controller is configured to identify locations of advertising content interspersed among program/movie content in the received video stream, and to record addressable chapter marks for the identified locations of the advertising content and a video stream that is based on the received video stream into the memory. The addressable chapter marks may be displayed on a display and used by a viewer to jump playback of the video stream between the chapter marks.

Abstract: The invention relates to a navigation device (2) for an electronic device (1), particularly a navigation device of the joystick type with two operating positions. In one position the navigation device (2) is extended as a joystick and in a second position the navigation device is retracted to function as a rocker key.

Abstract: An electronic equipment and method for creating a composite image or video pattern thumbnail from portions of data extracted from given frames in a sequence of frames. The extracted portions of frame data vary according to the location of the given frame within the sequence, and the composite image is representative of the content of the media file.
