Abstract: A method for configuring the functionality of a mobile multimedia or communication device. For selecting and/or activating a specific function of the device, a programming element is placed into the vicinity of said multimedia or communication device, said programming element being able to wirelessly communicate via a localized communication link (e.g., near field communication (NFC)) with a control unit being located within the multimedia or communication device. After establishing a communication link between said programming element and said multimedia or communication device, a configuration information is transmitted from the programming element to said control unit. The control unit may control the functionality of said multimedia or mobile communication device in accordance with said received configuration information.

Abstract: An electronic device includes a text input device enabling a user to input text information, a predictive text device configured to determine at least one predictive text candidate on the basis of input text information, a camera device configured to capture a moving image of a user, a detecting device configured to detect at least one word or word part on the basis of a user's lip movement in the captured moving image, a determining device configured to determine at least one most likely text on the basis of the at least one predictive text candidate determined by the predictive text device and the at least one word or word part detected by the detecting device, and a display device configured to display the at least one most likely text determined by the determining device. Methods for generating text on such electronic equipment is also discussed.

Abstract: A communication terminal includes a communication module, a camera device, a display device, and a controller. The communication module receives a display characteristic command and an input video data stream from a remotely located other communication terminal and sends an output video data stream thereto. The camera device generates an initial video data stream based on incident light. The display device displays a received input video data stream from the remote communication terminal. The controller generates the output video data stream based on the initial video data stream and a received display characteristic command from the remote communication terminal.
