  • Publication number: 20070245263
    Abstract: The present disclosure generally relates to methods and systems for performing a variety of native and non-native tasks with a wireless device employing a user-configurable graphical user interface. In one exemplary embodiment, the graphical user interface can be envisioned as a very wide screen composed of segments, with only one segment of the very wide screen displayed on the wireless device at any given time. The user can view other segments of the very wide screen by using the device keypad to move left and right within the very wide screen. Each segment is composed of one or more independent modular interface components that are associated with tasks, both native and non-native, that can be performed by the wireless device. Related embodiments are also described.

  • Publication number: 20060239417
    Abstract: The present invention discusses a method and apparatus for selectively providing a power to an alarm system, such as the power source provided by a telephone company, to alarm equipment located at customer's premises in a Fiber to the Premises (FTTP) telephone network. This power source is commonly used to power the POTS lines in a Service Provider's network. Two signals, one relating to the optical connectivity of the network and one relating to the connectivity of virtual circuits, are monitored at the customer premises. A logical operation is performed so as to remove a power source if either of the two signals is lost.
