  • 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.

  • Patent number: 8254972
    Abstract: A device, method and system for handling received messages on a portable electronic device. The device includes a message handling section 12 to handle or route messages on the mobile device based upon whether the message is addressed to a port number assigned to an application on the mobile device. If the destination port number is not addressed to a port that is assigned to an application on the mobile device, and the message includes a link, then the message is opened automatically in a browser. Optionally, the link may be opened if the destination port number is within a range of port numbers or after requesting permission to open the message from the message recipient.

  • Publication number: 20100073399
    Abstract: A first communication device may include a control unit to determine a first image of an object to be used in generating a multi-dimensional representation. The multi-dimensional representation may be set in at least two states, each representing an expression and to be controlled by commands. Furthermore, the control unit may determine a second image to be used in the process and determine whether the second image is associated with the first image; analyze the second image to determine a first expression of the second image; and create an expression command based on the first expression. The expression command may be used to control the multi-dimensional representation to be set in a first state presenting the determined first expression.

  • Publication number: 20090265165
    Abstract: A method and apparatus for labeling an image recorded by a portable electronic device with descriptive tags is disclosed. Sounds in the vicinity of the portable electronic device are recorded. When the image is captured, the audio record of recorded sounds from a first predetermined period of time prior to the capture of the image until a second predetermined period of time after the capture of the image is retrieved. The retrieved audio record is processed to create a list of recognizable words in the retrieved audio record. The list of recognizable words is then stored in a metatag field associated with the captured image.

  • Publication number: 20080267167
    Abstract: A mobile device for operation within a service provider's wide area wireless network system comprises a wireless communication system, a circuit switched application, and an IP application. The circuit switched application receives circuit switched call signaling from the wireless service provider network. The circuit switched call signaling comprises an MSISDN identifying the origin of a circuit switched call. The IP application determines whether the origin of the circuit switched call is capable of internet protocol communications by querying a contact database (or receiving an alert from the service provider network) to determine whether the MSISDN identifying the origin of the circuit switched call is associated with a unique uniform resource identifier. If the origin of the circuit switched call is capable of internet protocol communications, initiating an internet protocol communication thereto.
