Abstract: According to an aspect of the invention, there is provided a mobile phone including: a first storage configured to store transit information associated with a destination scene for each scene; a second storage configured to store frequency information representing a frequency as to a route passing through a source scene, a first scene transited from the source scene and a second scene transited from the first scene; a first display configured to selectably display a candidate of the second scene, depending upon a transition from the source scene to the first scene and upon the transit information; a second display configured to selectably display a candidate of the second scene, depending upon a transition from the source scene to the first scene and upon the frequency information; and a transit unit configured to transit from the candidate displayed to a scene of the candidate if the displayed candidate is selected.

Abstract: According to one embodiment, a content playback apparatus includes a read module which reads information that is recorded in a recording medium, a clock module which is managed such that tampering is prevented, and a control module which controls the read module and the clock module. Content information and time management information is recorded in the recording medium. The time management information includes date/time recording information indicative of a date/time at which previous playback of the content information is stopped, playback allowable period information, start date/time information of a playback allowable period and end date/time information of the playback allowable period. The control module includes a time management module which corrects the start date/time information of the playback allowable period and the end date/time information of the playback allowable period, with use of time information which is acquired from the clock module.

Abstract: According to one embodiment, a key management apparatus comprises a decrypting module configured to read a first media unique key and an encrypted content key corresponding to a selected content from a first information storage medium and to decrypt the encrypted content key with the first media unique key in order to obtain a content key in a plain version, an encryption module configured to read a second media unique key from a second information storage medium and to encrypt the content key in the plain version with the second media unique key in order to obtain an encrypted content key for the second medium, and a write module configured to write the encrypted content key for the second medium to a user data area of the second medium.

Abstract: According to one embodiment, an information processing device includes an output module which outputs video and audio information, and a processing circuit which processes the video and audio information to be output from the output module. The processing circuit includes a key-operation module which is operated to input a command, a remote controller light receiving module which detects a command input from a remote controller, and a control module which controls the output module based on a command obtained from each of the key-operation module and the remote controller light receiving module. The control module is configured to confirm which one of the key-operation module and the remote controller is used to input the command and change an output state of the output module for an operator who is at a position apart from the output module when the command is input from the remote controller.

Abstract: According to one embodiment, a portable device includes a casing, a display contained in the casing and having a first side in proximity to a position of the casing which is held by a user with a hand, a plurality of icons displayed on the display, a touch panel which is provided over the display and by which the icons are operated, and a sensor which is provided in the casing and senses the position held by the user. The icons are arranged in a first area defined by an arc of a circle about a first corner as a center located at a lower end of the first side, and chords extending between the arc and the first corner.

Abstract: According to one embodiment, a storage apparatus comprises storage devices, a first selection module configured to select a first storage device in accordance with selection made by a user, a determination module configured to determine whether or not the first storage device can store data, a second selection module configured to select a second storage device when the determination module determines that the first storage device cannot store data, and a storage control module configured to store data in the first storage device when the determination module determines that the first storage device can store data, and to store data in the second storage device when the determination module determines that the first storage device cannot store data.
