Abstract: In an information processing device, server connection method, program storage medium, and network system, a connection is made to a pre-appointed access point more easily. The present invention is designed such that a user transmits to an ASP 32 over the Internet 5 user registration data necessary to secure his/her exclusive storage area prepared in the server 39 placed at the ASP 32, and that the user receives from the ASP 32 over the Internet 5 a URL designated as the access point indicating his/her exclusive storage area meeting the user registration data, based on which connection is made automatically to the access point in the content server 39 over the Internet 5, thus making it possible to connect to a pre-appointed access point with increased ease without forcing the user to perform an input operation for the URL.

Abstract: A method and a computer readable medium for implementing the method provide a desired kind of content to a client according to a time frame set up in a providing schedule. The method includes storing plural kinds of contents in a exclusive write storage area, the exclusive write storage area storing only contents provided by a single person, recognizing a demand time corresponding to a demand from the person for a desired kind of content to be sent over a network from the stored contents, judging the desired kind of content from the stored contents to be provided over the network to the client in a time frame set up in a providing schedule based on the demand time, and providing the desired kind of content to the client according to the time frame set up in the providing schedule.

Abstract: An apparatus provides a desired content over a network according to a received schedule time. The desired content is selected from content provided by a client and stored by the apparatus. The apparatus notifies the client over the network that the desired contents cannot be provided at one schedule time if the number of contents to be provided at that one schedule time reaches an upper limit.

Abstract: The present invention realizes that a contribution is indirectly made to a content creator in the form of contribution data via a management server of an ASP in such a manner that contribution data equivalent to a given amount corresponding to a contribution button selected-on a content display screen is created and transmitted to the management server of the ASP via the Internet.

Abstract: A content providing device, content providing method, program storage media, content providing system and content reservation control method are disclosed. Many kinds of contents to be provided in a time schedule frame matching the time demanded are sequentially provided to a client PC 4 based on a providing schedule set up to provide plural kinds of contents in each time schedule frame one by one, which keeps a client interested. A plurality of user PCs 2 share the exclusive storage area in the content server 39 and thus contents can be supplied to many and unspecific persons who have accessed. When the number of contents to be provided simultaneously at a desired time on the providing schedule has reached the upper value, reservations are controlled, thereby preventing the lowering of content transferring speed and ensuring a speedy provision.

The portable terminal apparatus includes a housing, a surface lighting portion provided on the outer surface of the housing, and a panel member detachably mounted on the housing so as to cover the surface lighting portion. At least a part of the panel member is transparent or semitransparent. The surface lighting portion has a flat outer surface, and the panel member is a flat plate like member, wherein the housing has a device for holding the flat plate like member placed on the flat outer surface of the surface lighting portion. The whole of the surface lighting portion is illuminated upon receiving an incoming call, for example, and the panel member is also illuminated according to a pattern formed thereon.
