Abstract: We describe power control techniques for an document reader with an electrophoretic display. In embodiments the document reader comprises a main processor to display information and at least one secondary processor to detect, say, a user input gesture; a battery to provide power to both processors; and a controllable switch coupled between said battery and said main processor and having a control line coupled to said secondary processor, to switch power from said battery to said main processor while said secondary processor is powered. In embodiments a power consumption measured in months is desired so that rather than put the main processor into a standby mode power to the main processor is switched off entirely but the system is arranged to be able to start-up quickly from this configuration.

Abstract: Systems, methods and computer program products for facilitating the provisioning of a single and multi-line virtual private branch exchange (PBX) including automated call distribution via a mobile device are described. In some implementations, the provisioning of the single and multi-line virtual PBX can be achieved using one or more unique provisioning interfaces. The unique provisioning interfaces can enable the setup and configuration of a virtual PBX service account instantaneously from any geographical location at any time. Changes made to the virtual PBX service account can be immediately reflected back (e.g., in real-time) to the system providing the core operating environment.

Abstract: A mobile communication terminal call history displays call distinguishing icons representing the types of calls performed with counterparts. The call types include sent and received voice calls, video calls, and messages. If a user selects one call distinguishing icon displayed on a mobile communication terminal's display unit, a voice call or a video call is sent to the counterpart or a screen on which a message can be written to the counterpart is displayed, according to the call type of the selected call distinguishing icon. The user can directly select a counterpart and the call type to be sent to the counterpart by selecting one of the call distinguishing icons displayed on the display unit. A desired call distinguishing icon can be selected by entering a command on a touch screen, a keypad, or by voice command.

Abstract: The present disclosure is directed to a system and method configured to implement an inter-MSC based handoff of a mobile device between a packet switched network and a mobile core network. In embodiments implementing a handoff from a femtocell to a macrocell, from the perspective of a neighboring MSC on a mobile core network, IP or VOIP information from a femtocell which is in communication with the convergence server, is perceived as having the same protocol as information which originates from a macrocell. Inversely, in embodiments implementing a hand-in to the femtocell from a macrocell, information which originates from a macrocell, which is in communication with the convergence server, would be perceived as IP or VOIP code to the femtocell. Accordingly, a target MSC in a handoff is agnostic of the fact that the mobile device entering into the macrocell was actually attached to a femtocell. Thus, embodiments of the present invention allow existing inter-MSC based handoff solutions to be leveraged.
