  • Patent number: 8707337
    Abstract: The present invention can include a method for initiating a dispatch call. The method can include a step of receiving a dispatch call request from a MIDlet disposed within a JAVA™ mobile edition (ME) environment of a communication device, such as a mobile telephony device. The method can determine whether the MIDlet is in a domain having access to dispatch call functions implemented within a native environment of the communication device. When the domain has access, a dispatch communication session can be established for the dispatch call request. The dispatch communication session can execute within the native environment without exiting the JAVA™ ME environment. When the domain lacks access, the dispatch call request can be conveyed to the native environment, the MIDlet can quit executing, the JAVA™ ME environment can be exited, and a dispatch communication session for the dispatch call request can be established from within the native environment.

  • Patent number: 7331793
    Abstract: A connector (30) can include a housing (32), a plurality of magnets (14) within the housing used for data transfer and at least one alignment magnet (16 or 18) within the housing used for proper alignment and polarity. The connector can also include at least one magnetic induction circuit (52) coupled to at least one of the plurality of magnets. The plurality of magnets can include a plurality of inductor elements or micro-metric inductor elements. The magnetic induction circuit can be a magnetic induction circuit using Gaussian Minimum Shift Keying modulation. A connector (64) can further include an inductive coil (67) operating at a lower frequency than the at least one magnetic induction circuit. The inductive coil can enable contact less energy transfer from the connector to an energy storage device (69) operatively coupled to an electronic product (62).
