摘要:
A method and apparatus for collaborative chatting on a plurality of hand held computer systems are disclosed. A Bluetooth communication may be established among several hand held computer systems. A participants list may be cached from previous sessions, eliminating a typical step of discovery. Collaborative chatting software may be automatically initiated on the hand held systems in the group. Information entered by any member of the group may be displayed in substantially real time on all hand held computer systems. Information may be color coded to identify its source. In this novel manner, collaborative chatting on a plurality of hand held computer systems may occur, resulting in richer, more efficient and more secure communication between group members.

An automated banking machine operates to cause financial transfers responsive to data bearing records. The automated banking machine includes a card reader that is operative to read data from user cards corresponding to a financial account. The automated banking machine further includes a sheet accepting device that is operative to receive at least one of notes and checks. A note acceptor includes at least one validator that includes at least one ultrasonic detector. The at least one validator is operative to identify suspect counterfeit notes produced by assembling pieces of genuine notes by identifying seams or other fastening features in the notes where such pieces are joined. The note validator may further include image sensors and/or radiation transmission sensors which are further usable to identify the presence of seams or other fastening features that can distinguish valid and suspect counterfeit notes.

An automated banking machine operates to carry out financial transfers responsive to data read form data bearing records. The machine includes a card reader that operates to read data from user cards. The card data corresponds to financial accounts. The automated banking machine further includes a cash dispenser and a receipt printer. The machine is operative to dispense cash to an authorized user based on identifying data including card data, and to cause a financial transfer from an account corresponding to card data through communication with at least one remote computer. The machine includes a check acceptor that operates to determine magnetic symbols included on checks. Cash may be dispensed in exchange for a check received through operation of the check acceptor of the machine.

摘要:
A method of rendering digital media encoded content on a client electronic device is disclosed. The digital encoded media content comprises digital encoded local media content stored on the client electronic device and/or digital encoded radio media content provided via a network from a remote computing device to the client electronic device. The method includes: indicating a radio playlist that defines a rendering sequence for the digital encoded media content; and determining if a portion of the digital encoded media content to be rendered is stored as digital local media content in a memory of the client electronic device. The digital encoded radio media content not stored as digital encoded local media content on the client electronic device is received, on the client electronic device, from the remote computing device via the network. The digital encoded local media content stored in the memory of the client electronic device and the received digital encoded radio media content is rendered in the rendering sequence defined by the radio playlist.
摘要:
A method, computer program product and computing device for selecting at least one playlist for transfer, the at least one playlist being stored on a first personal media device. The at least one playlist is converted to a common format, thus generating a first common format playlist. Communication is established with a second personal media device. The first common format playlist is transferred to the second personal media device.
摘要:
A method, computer program product and computing device for presenting identifying information associated with at least one media content item, the identifying information being presented to a user on a personal media device. A purchase request to purchase the at least one media content item associated with the identifying information is received. Upon receiving the purchase request, a media content item identifier associated with the at least one media content item is stored in a purchase queue to initiate purchase of the at least one media content item at a later time.
摘要:
A method, computer program product and computing device for registering a user with a media distribution system to obtain a subscription to the media distribution system, the subscription providing the user with content rights that allow the user to obtain and render media content licensed by the media distribution system. A personal media device is registered with the media distribution system for use by the user to obtain and render the media content. At least a portion of the media content is rendered on the personal media device.
摘要:
A method, computer program product and computing device for associating at least one historical event with at least one media content event based, at least in part, upon a chronological relationship. A chronological representation of the at least one historical event and the at least one media content event is displayed within a window of time. A user selection of an informational item displayed within the chronological representation is received, and the chronological representation is updated based on the selected informational item.
