Abstract: A graphical user interface for display on a touchscreen display of an electronic user device includes an orbital menu that has a plurality of displayed selectable icons arranged in a first essentially circular pattern, wherein the selectable icons are a predetermined number of otherwise available icons for a current menu level of the orbital menu. In certain embodiments, the available icons are user selectable so as to be able to access device functions, menu levels, device options, etc. The orbital menu may include a number of hidden icons, which correspond to the remaining available icons that otherwise exceed the predetermined number. Additionally, the orbital menu may include a graphical representation of the selectable icons as spinning along the first essentially circular pattern in response to a user contact of the orbital menu provided using the touchscreen display.

Abstract: A graphical user interface for display on a touchscreen display of an electronic user device includes operating modes arranged along at least a two dimensional plane of the graphical user interface, where the operating modes include at least a media play mode and a media capture mode. The graphical user interface also includes a currently-active view of a first operating mode displayed on the touchscreen display, where the currently-active view is changeable from the first operating mode to a second operating mode in response to a user input. Additionally, the graphical user interface includes a graphical representation of the second operating mode which is displayed on the touchscreen display as the currently-active view following the user input, where the user input corresponds to an instruction to navigate in a direction of the at least two dimensional plane of the graphical user interface which corresponds to the second operating mode.
