Abstract: Account transaction protection is provided during the automated authorization process of a charge account, a debit account, a personal account or a business account. After a vendor asks the authorization service provider to approve a pending transaction, the authorization service provider automatically contacts an account holder asking for approval or refusal of the pending transaction. The contact is made by telephone, or computer network, such as the Internet. After entering a PIN to establish identity, the account holder approves or rejects the pending transaction after receiving a validation request message detailing the facts of the transaction. The PIN may be a normal PIN or a duress PIN. If the duress PIN is used, indicating the account holder is under duress to approve the pending transaction, the service provider notifies the authorities. Similarly, if the account holder indicates that refusal is due to unauthorized use, the service provider contacts the authorities.

Abstract translation: 帐户交易保护在收费帐户，借记帐户，个人帐户或商业帐户的自动授权过程中提供。 在供应商要求授权服务提供商批准待处理的交易之后，授权服务提供商自动联系帐户持有者，要求批准或拒绝挂起交易。 联系人通过电话或计算机网络（如Internet）进行。 在输入PIN以建立身份后，帐户持有人在收到详细说明交易事实的验证请求消息后，批准或拒绝待处理交易。 PIN可能是普通PIN或胁迫PIN。 如果使用胁迫PIN，表示帐户持有人正在受到批准待处理交易的胁迫，服务提供商通知当局。 同样，如果账户持有人表示拒绝是由于未经授权的使用，则服务提供商与当局联系。

Abstract: Methods, systems and computer program products for providing roaming services to a wireless telephone roaming outside of its home service area by receiving a request for roaming service from a wireless telephone that is within a roaming network and offering a special roaming contract to the user of the wireless telephone. The request for services comprises an identify of the wireless telephone wherein the identity comprises the mobile identification number and the electronic serial number. Using the identity of the wireless telephone received in the request, the roaming network determines that the wireless telephone identity is not recorded as a record within the roaming network and is therefore roaming. The method provides offering a special roaming contract to the user and then executing the special roaming contract if the user decides to accept the offer for a special roaming contract.

Abstract: An apparatus and method for merging mobile, or wireless, telephone service with existing wired telephone equipment in a facility, such as a home or business, are provided. With the apparatus and method, a converter is associated with the facility such that a wireless telephone number is associated with the converter. Telephone calls may be made to the facility via a wireless telephone network and the converter. The converter receives calls from the wireless telephone network directed to the converter, converts the format of the wireless telephone call to a wired telephone call format, and routes these calls to one or more wired telephone units in the facility. Calls originating from the wired telephone units in the facility are received by the converter which converts the call signals to an appropriate format for wireless network routing, and forwards the call to the wireless network.

Abstract: A system and method are presented for updating directory entries within an electronic communication device upon receipt of an electronic notification. Electronic communication devices may include, but are not limited to telephones, facsimile machines and electronic organizers. The system and method as described herein allows a portion of a directory entry, which may be referred to as an entry content value, to be updated within a directory of an electronic communication device upon the receipt of an altered value. For example, if a user calls a telephone number of a person listed in a directory entry of the telephone and receives a message stating that the number has been changed, the new number may be electronically transmitted to the directory of the telephone. The transfer searches the directory of the telephone for the existing entry and updates the changed entry content value. Thus, the other entry content values within the directory are not changed.

Abstract: A face guard for a sport helmet, such as a rigid, protective baseball batting helmet or football helmet, is provided with one or more resilient couplings that permit the face guard grid to be attached to the helmet at ear hole openings in the side flaps of the helmet. The resilient couplings have one or more radial, annular channels defined therein. At least one of these channels is of a size to fit snugly within the confines of a side flap ear opening on the helmet. The structure of the resilient coupling thereby defines a resiliently compressible helmet attachment flange for insertion through an ear opening in one of the ear flaps of the helmet and a resiliently compressible mounting clip attachment flange for insertion into the helmet attachment opening of the mounting clip. The face guard may thereby be releaseably coupled to and detached from the sport helmet without any modification to the helmet whatsoever and in a manner that protects the helmet from damage.

Abstract: A navigation device includes accelerometers for measuring movement. Given a beginning location and orientation, the device determines current location and orientation based on the information from the accelerometers. A user enters a list of items, such as a shopping list, into the device and the device determines a path to the items. The device then generates and presents directions for navigation. The path may be calculated to avoid hazards; such as shelves being stocked, congested checkout lines, and spilled items. The item list may be loaded into the device, using the bar code reader, optical character recognition, or through a store computer or the Internet. Planes of infrared beams are arranged within the environment such that a navigation device is likely to or must pass through a plane. A path may be computed to ensure that the navigation device passes through an IR plane. The navigation device has a plurality of IR sensors arranged in a tetrahedron. As the device passes through an IR plane, the device receives signals from the sensors. Given the order and timing of the signals and a location of the IR plane, the device performs a calibration. The device is calibrated without requiring the user to place the device in a cradle.
