Abstract: An arrangement for prolonging voice service in an active state by forcing a double user equipment context situation. This is achieved by delaying the user equipment context release message from the source cell to the core network. When the user equipment context release message is delayed the connection with a target cell can be established before the voice service is dropped and the user does not need to redial.

If the gaze direction of the first user is directed to the first display and the gaze direction of the second user is directed to the second display, the first computing device continuously updates content on the first display. If the gaze direction of the second user is not directed to the second display, the first computing device pauses the content on the first display.
