  • Patent number: 8873521
    Abstract: A method of determining user terminal information may include initiating a communication at a first user terminal between the first user terminal and a second user terminal using a telephone number of the second user terminal. Information regarding the second user terminal may then be received at the first user terminal from the second user terminal during the communication over a non-voice channel without opening a voice channel between the first and second user terminals. Related systems and computer program products are also discussed.

  • Publication number: 20100110002
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a communication device comprising a combined input and display device for character input and image display and a method for controlling said character input and image display. The device comprises a control unit and a proximity sensor arranged in such a way that the sensor is able to detect when a pointer comes within a first predetermined distance from the input and display device and that the control unit is configured to generate a first control signal for changing display modes, from a first to a second display mode, upon detection of the pointer. The second display mode is kept until the pointer is withdrawn more then a second predetermined distance from the display device at which occasion the control unit is configured to generate a second control signal for changing display modes, from the second to the first display mode.
