Abstract: Methods, apparatuses and computer program products are provided for updating a content item. In this regard, a current context associated with a content item can be determined based on criteria such as, a user's tendencies, user preferences, battery level, time of day, etc. The current context of the content item can be active or inactive. If a content item is in an active current context and an associated triggering event occurs, the content item can be updated. If the content item is in an inactive current context, the content item need not be updated. Content items may be updated in various manners, including generating a preview of the content item. A preview of a content item may be generated by retrieving the content item via an interface, where the interface is determined from data associated with the content item. Upon retrieval of a content item via the interface, a preview of the content item can be generated, such as by generating an image file having associated metadata.

Abstract: A method for providing augmented search results may include receiving an indication of one or more potential destinations provided in response to a search operation, generating directional information indicative of a direction from a predefined location to a potential destination, and providing for display of the directional information along with a search result associated with the potential destination. An apparatus and computer program product corresponding to the method are also provided.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method for updating session initiation information saved in a terminal device (14, 15) of a data communications network (12), and a data communications network arrangement utilizing the method and a mobile terminal device (14, 15, 40) belonging to the data communications network arrangement, in which method either the SIP protocol or a conventional telephone number is used for session initiation.

Abstract: An approach is provided for presenting a graphical user interface on a mobile device according to a navigational application. A presentation is initiated of a graphical user interface on a mobile device according to a navigational application. The graphical user interface includes a first area displaying one or more selectable objects. The graphical user interface also includes a second area displaying a map in perspective view that preserves a predetermined form. The first area and the second area are non-overlapping.

Abstract: An approach is provided for providing navigational assistance using guidance markers. One or more parameters associated with a guidance marker are received. A score is determined for the guidance marker using the one or more parameters. The guidance marker is selected based, at least in part, on the score for use in navigating along a path. Further, at least one other score can be determined for at least one other guidance marker and the other score may be compared with the score. The selection can be based on the comparison. A starting point and a destination point can be received. Further, navigational assistance data may be determined based on the guidance marker, the starting point, and the destination point. The navigational assistance data can be caused to be presented on a device.

Abstract: Methods, apparatuses and computer program products are provided for generating a preview of a content item. In this regard, generating a preview may be included in updating a content item. A preview of a content item may be generated by retrieving the content item via an interface, where the interface is determined from data associated with the content item. Upon retrieval of a content item via the interface, a preview of the content item can be generated, such as by generating an image file having associated metadata. The metadata may be used for interacting with the preview such as by linking the preview to additional, related content items. A request may also be received to update a content item, where the request is generated based on a current context of the content item and a triggering event.

Abstract: Methods, systems and mobile communication devices for the operation of mobile communication devices; such a method including: providing an operable display area on a mobile communication device; displaying an array of one or more selectable items in said operable display area; displaying an array of features for said selected one item; and providing for highlighting a selected one item of the said one or more selectable items and/or features.

Abstract: A navigation guidance structure is provided for an unstructured user interface menu in an electronic device. According to the invention, selection components are provided in the unstructured user interface menu, and paths connect the selection components. A user may move a cursor through these paths using direction keys of an input device connected to the electronic device. The navigation guidance indicates that activation of a given direction key will move the cursor to indicate a particular selection component.
