Abstract: An off-board navigation application is provided that is configured to be stored in memory on a wireless portable device. The application comprises a menu hierarchy including a series of pages to be presented on a screen of the device. The pages include a category page having a list of categories. The categories each are associated with points of interest (POIs). The menu hierarchy includes an address page presenting address information related to a selected point of interest (POI). The address page includes a function option that directs the portable device to transmit wirelessly a navigation information request to a remote server. The menu hierarchy includes a navigation page configured to present navigation information that is received wirelessly by the portable device from the remote server in response to the navigation information request.

Abstract: Techniques are described to provide a user interface for a display of a mobile communication device. In an implementation, a user interface comprises a main menu having a fixed portion and a movable portion. The fixed portion includes icons associated with primary functions of the mobile communication device (“primary icons”), while the movable portion includes icons associated with secondary functions of the mobile communication device (“secondary icons”). The secondary icons may be scrolled within the movable portion in response to receipt of a touch input via a touch screen overlaying the display while the primary icons within the fixed portion remain stationary with respect to the display.
