  • Publication number: 20140196100
    Abstract: An object of the present invention is to provide a mechanism in a first electronic device (101) to provide media recommendations to a user of a second electronic device (102) connected to a communications network (100). Embodiments relate to a first electronic device (101) for providing media recommendations and a method therein. The method comprises analysing (201) media content shared by at least one second electronic device (102) over the communications network (100) to determine at least one media preference of the user of the at least one second electronic device (102) and transmitting (204) a signal relating to a recommended media content to the at least one second electronic device (102) in dependence of the determined at least one media preference.

  • Publication number: 20130187860
    Abstract: An electronic device includes a display screen and a touch sensor operatively associated with the display screen that is configured to detect a location of one or more contact points on a display screen. A controller circuit is configured to control a speed at which information items are scrolled on the display screen responsive to the location of one or more contact points on the display screen such that the speed at which information items are scrolled is changed responsive to detecting one contact point or two spaced-apart contact points by the touch sensor on the display.

  • Publication number: 20110122159
    Abstract: An electronic device includes a user interface and a processor coupled thereto. The user interface includes a display screen operable to display text and/or graphics, and a touch-sensitive interface comprising an array of sensors operable to receive a scrolling input from a user input object and generate a touch signal in response thereto. The processor is operable to detect the scrolling input and a location on the touch-sensitive interface at which the scrolling input was received responsive to the touch signal, and to scroll a different amount of the text and/or graphics on the display screen responsive to the scrolling input and according to the detected location. Related devices and methods of operation are also discussed.

  • Patent number: 7707205
    Abstract: Process for locating target item in a list including a plurality of items in sequence from 1 to m, including: (a) defining a range within the list including the target item, including: i) identifying a first item at location “n”, where 1?n?m; ii) identifying a last item at location “p” where n?p?m; (b) identifying and displaying an item at location D=((p?n)/2+n); (c) determining location of target relative to “D”. If the target is at or adjacent “D”, terminate the process and display the target item; if the target is between “n” and “D”, resetting “p” to “D”, repeat steps (b) and (c); if the target item is between “D” and “p”, resetting “n” to “D”, repeat steps (b) and (c); until the target item is at or adjacent the location “D”.
