Abstract: The disclosure describes a method for securing the trustworthiness of an electronic device. At least first and second check-up data are stored in the electronic device. In the method, a first step of a boot program is executed. In the first boot step, the trustworthiness of the first check-up data is examined, wherein if the check-up shows that the first check-up data is trusted, the second check-up data related to the second boot step is examined to confirm the trustworthiness of the second boot step. If the check-up shows that the second check-up data related to the second boot step is trusted, the second boot step is executed after said first boot step.

Abstract: Processing information in an electronic device is carried out by at least one processing block for controlling the operation of the electronic device, and a memory. At least a first private key is used for processing information. At least a protected mode and a normal mode are established in the processing block. Part of the memory can be accessed only in said protected mode. At least said first private key is stored in the memory that is accessible in said protected mode.

Abstract: A multi-service mobile station according to the invention comprises means (42) for connecting the device by radio to telecommunication network in order to utilize typical mobile station services, such as speech and data services. Additionally, the multi-service mobile station provides means (41, 40, 47) for using various information processing services (P1, P2), such as telefax service and electronic mail service. When using information processing services, the information processed by the user is automatically saved in the memory means (40, 47) of the multi-service mobile station when a certain criterium is met. The criteria are e.g. shifting from one service to another, going over to current saving mode, or, in a two-section multi-service terminal device, folding the device together.

Abstract: A portable communication device (1) comprising a first part (2); a second part (3); and coupling hinge (4) for pivotably coupling the first (2) and the second part (3). The device further comprises a connecting element (6) of the first part on a surface of the first part (2); a connecting element (13) of the second part on a surface of the second part (3); and said connecting elements (6, 13) are positioned to be against each other for enabling a mutual connection when the first part and the second part are in the closed position. Allows robustness and straightforward assembly at the manufacturing stage, and provides a structure that is lean, durable and easily accessible for maintenance.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method for securing the trustworthiness of an electronic device. At least first and second check-up data are stored in the electronic device. In the method, a boot program is started, in which boot program at least first and second boot steps are taken. In the first boot step, the trustworthiness of said at least first check-up data is examined, wherein if the check-up shows that said at least first check-up data is trusted, said second check-up data related to at least the second boot step is examined to confirm the trustworthiness of the second boot step. If the check-up shows that at least one second check-up data related to the second boot step is trusted, said second boot step is taken after said first boot step.

Abstract: A method for obtaining at least one item of user specific data, wherein the user specific data is obtained at least partly by using paging or a short message service.

Abstract: The scope of the present invention is an information transfer system and a mobile station (10) connected to it. In a system according to the invention a mobile station (10) is connected to a terminal device (40) e.g. through either a cable or an infrared connection, and the radio parts of the mobile station (10) are switched off. Through the terminal device (40), a local network, ATM-network (70, 81, 80, 82) and a network server (90) the mobile station (10) is connected over a wired network to a mobile communication switching center (100) or to a telephone network exchange (110, 130). When the connection from the mobile station (10) to a mobile communication switching center (100) or to a telephone network exchange (110, 130) is broken, the mobile station (10) establishes a connection to a mobile communication switching center (100) by radio in the normal way through a base station (105) and a base station controller (104).
