Patent number: 7574480Abstract: A terminal for providing an application using a browser. The terminal includes a transceiver arranged to send radio packets to and receive radio packets from a server, and a browser application for displaying content, arranged to initiate a first application by accessing a first item associated with the first application using a first content identifier. The application is provided by the combination of the first item and further items each of which is accessible using an individual content identifier, and each of which includes content or a device for linking to content. Also, the terminal includes a memory for storing items received from the server locally in the terminal for access by the browser using their individual content identifiers. Accessing an item involves attempting to read the item from the memory and then, if unsuccessful, requesting transfer of the item from the server by sending a radio packet containing the appropriate content identifier.Type: GrantFiled: April 26, 2000Date of Patent: August 11, 2009Assignee: Nokia CorporationInventors: Claus Pedersen, Lars Bohn Hansen

Patent number: 7149550Abstract: The input of words into a text string in a communication terminal is handled by recording a key stroke sequence inputted for characterising one of said words, and comparing said key strokes sequence with candidates in a word completion directory in order to find word completion candidates matching said key stroke sequence. One of said matching word completion candidates is displayed in the display for selection by the user. When the user selects a word which exceeds a first predetermined number of characters the selected word is added to the directory including a plurality of word completion candidates, if the selected word is not present there already.Type: GrantFiled: November 27, 2001Date of Patent: December 12, 2006Assignee: Nokia CorporationInventors: Christian Kraft, Claus Aagaard Pedersen, Jens Benner, Lars Bohn Hansen, Juha Marila, Panu Korhonen
