  • Patent number: 9214131
    Abstract: A mobile device accessory includes an integrated non-volatile display (NVD) that uses substantially no power in order to maintain an image displayed thereon. A mobile device connected to the accessory controls the NVD by providing both image data for display on the NVD and power for powering of the NVD. In response to receiving a user-input command to display an image on the NVD, the mobile device transiently provides power to the accessory. While power is provided, the mobile device transmits the data for the image to the accessory. Once the image is displayed on the NVD, the mobile device substantially withdraws power provided to the accessory. Upon receiving a user-input command to update an image on the NVD, the mobile device again transiently provides power to the accessory for a limited period of time sufficient to provide and display the updated image on the NVD.

  • Patent number: 8971856
    Abstract: A distribution server is configured to receive from a web portal information about an order request for an accessory and digital content. The distribution server stores the digital content at the distribution server along with authentication information used to authenticate a retrieval request for the digital content from a mobile device. The authentication information includes a claim receipt for the digital content and a Mobile Directory Number (MDN) associated with the mobile device. The mobile device sends the retrieval request to the distribution server. Responsive to the retrieval request, the distribution server determines whether the mobile device is authorized to receive the digital content. Upon determining the mobile device is authorized to receive the digital content, the distribution server forwards the digital content over a communication network to the mobile device.
