  • Patent number: 9935871
    Abstract: According to some aspects as described herein, a user may purchase or otherwise be provided with an accelerated service for selected software applications, devices, and/or ports to experience a high level of communication. The accelerated service may be created, for example, by using a dedicated network data flow such that the user's customer premise equipment (CPE) network access device may put priority traffic in a different upstream data flow than the commonly shared flow, which may involve tagging the traffic upstream to the network with a priority indicator such as a flow identifier. Based on similar factors, the user may also control local priority of data received downstream from the network for distribution to one or more local devices.

  • Patent number: 7786901
    Abstract: A method for key press registration in an electronic device uses a first key press debounce limit (233) if a first housing of the electronic device has not moved relative to a second housing of the electronic device and a second key press debounce limit (236) if the first housing has moved relative to the second housing. In one implementation, the second debounce limit is at least twice the first debounce limit. By using different debounce limits based on whether housing movement has recently been detected, the electronic device reduces the effect of an inadvertent key press made while opening or closing the electronic device.
