Abstract: A method at a vehicle computing device for identifying a driver, the method including receiving a first indicator at the vehicle computing device; obtaining, based on the first indicator, a presumed driver identity; receiving at least one second indicator at the vehicle computing device; and verifying the presumed driver identity using the at least one second indicator.

Abstract: A wireless handheld device operable to continuously synchronize PIM information with a host desktop computer. The device comprises a software module for updating a handheld PIM database to reflect a change to PIM information, a software module for updating a handheld mirror database to reflect the change to PIM information, a software module for generating a PIM message relating to the change to the PIM information, a software module for translating the PIM message from a handheld data format into a network data format and a software module for sending the PIM message from the client wireless handheld device to the host desktop computer via a wireless network.

Abstract: A system and method for generating runtime metadata for use in the development of mobile device applications. A metadata file, such as an XML file that is used to capture the metadata for a database associated with a mobile device application, is used to generate initialization code. This initialization code, when executed, creates runtime metadata for the application database in terms of a first object (e.g. classID object) through which metadata associated with the application database is accessible and at least one second object (e.g. propertyID object) through which metadata associated with a property of a data record of the application database is accessible.

Abstract: A wireless handheld device operable to continuously synchronize PIM information with a host desktop computer.

Abstract: A handheld device includes a host database having first and second API associated therewith, a client database and a notification handler. The notification handler sends a request for notification of a change in the host database to the first API and receives the notification of the change in the host database after the change has occurred in the host database. The notification handler then requests contents of the host database from the second API and requests contents from the client database. These contents are then compared by the notification handler to identify the change in the host database. The notification handler then sends a command to update the client database based upon the change in the host database such that changes made in the host database of the handheld device may be continuously synchronized with the user's desktop computer via a wireless communication network.
