摘要： A method of ambiguous word review or correction for a handheld electronic device includes receiving a plurality of actuations of input members in which each of a number of these members has a plurality of assigned characters, rendering a plurality of words responsive to the actuations, displaying a plurality of representations of the words, and detecting a number of the words, which are ambiguous. For each of the detected number, a visual indicator is displayed associated with a corresponding one of the representations. Touching of a touch screen is detected in connection with the displayed visual indicator. Preferably, a first magnification of the corresponding representation and a second magnification of a representation of a number of alternative words are displayed. The touch screen can be used to select one of the first and second magnifications to correct the ambiguous word.

摘要： A mobile device adjusts its scanning parameters, depending on the rate of change of location of the mobile device. Examples of scanning parameters that may be adjusted include a back-off parameter that affects the time between successive scans, and a scan/don't scan parameter that according to its value prevents the mobile device from scanning or permits the mobile device to scan. The mobile device may maintain different back-off parameters for different types of scans. Determining which scanning parameters to adjust and how to adjust them may depend on whether the rate of change of location of the mobile device does not exceed a low threshold, exceeds a high threshold, or exceeds the low threshold and does not exceed the high threshold. Different thresholds may be applied by the mobile device for different types of scans.
