A method for social interacting, including using a portable messaging device for designating, from time to time, a plurality of friends, selecting a mood, sending one or more representations of the selected mood to each of the plurality of designated friends, further selecting an updated mood, and further sending one or more representations of the updated mood to each of the plurality of designated friends, to supersede the previously sent one or more representations of the mood. A user interface is also described and claimed.
摘要:
A data storage area of a data storage device is partitioned logically between a user storage area and a device storage area. Source data stored securely in the device storage area is copied as derivative data to the user storage area, or is used as a basis for creating derivative data stored in the user storage area, whenever the data storage device is initialized. In one embodiment, the data storage area is read-write and the device storage area has embodied thereon device system code, executed by a controller of the data storage device, for writing source data to the device storage area only if the source data satisfies a predetermined condition. Examples of derivative data include an autorun file, a volume label and user identification. Data from a host may be stored reversibly in the user storage area but must be stored securely in the device storage area.

摘要:
A computer and cell phone assembly, including a communicator including a modem for communicating over a wireless network, and a notebook computer, including a pouch for physically attaching the communicator to the notebook computer, and a connection indicator for indicating arrival of an incoming phone call from the wireless network when the communicator is attached to the notebook computer, wherein the communicator is operative to receive the incoming phone call whether it remains attached to the notebook computer or whether it is subsequently detached from the notebook computer. A method is also described and claimed.
摘要:
A method for operating a camera includes connecting the camera to a computer; the camera is programmed by storing operative steps in memory within the camera. The programming is performed using an application running on the computer. On completing the programming, the camera is disconnected from the computer and further programming is disabled and the program is executed. Preferably, the program includes correlating a photographic image with a previously stored photographic image and overwriting in memory a photographic image substantially identical to the previously stored photographic image. Preferably, the camera further includes manual controls functional solely during manual photography and disabled during surveillance photography.
摘要:
The present disclosure relates to a portable digital media player, and in particular to a portable digital media player device having specific mechanical properties. In some embodiments, the portable digital media player includes a device port that is configured as a supportive port. In some embodiments, the device port is a plug. In some embodiments, a volume ratio between a minimally circumscribing rectangular prism of the digital media player and a minimally circumscribing rectangular prism of the plug is at most 10:1, or at most 5:1. In some embodiments, a media system is provided where the digital media player is mated with the host presentation device. In some embodiments, the media system provides certain mechanical properties.

A method of sending e-mail from a computer, including attaching a telephone to a computer, saving at least one e-mail message from the computer on the telephone, activating the telephone, and automatically sending the e-mail message after the activating.
摘要:
A device, a method and a system for portable data storage and transfer through a simplified device interface. The operations of the device are restricted, in order to increase the ease of use of the device, and in order to provide certain core functions. These core functions include reading data, writing data and exchanging data with a similar device and/or with an external computer. The device features a minimal set of hardware components for accomplishing these functions, such as a data processor of some type, a memory storage medium or media, and a data exchange mechanism, which may optionally be an infrared port for example.
摘要:
A device, a method and a system for direct execution of code from a flash memory arrangement, in which a separate memory component is not required, even if a flash memory component is used which has a restriction on the size of a data block which can be read at one time. Furthermore, the flash memory arrangement is optionally implemented as a “single die” chip or device, which is more efficient for manufacturing and which also results in lower costs.
摘要:
A device, a method and a system for providing control of access to data which is stored in an electronic data storage device. The device, method and system enable various types of permissions to be set for determining access to the stored data, such that if an attempt is made to access particular data which does not have a suitable permission type, access is denied. Preferably, the present invention is implemented as an access control device, such as a chip for example, which more preferably controls all access to the data storage device. This implementation is preferred, since such electronic devices are more difficult to “hack” for access by an unauthorized user. The device, system and method have a number of different utilizations, such as for controlling access to credit card information; for identifying a user according to a PIN or other identification information; for controlling access to a particular location according to the identity of the user; and for controlling access to various types of data files, such as music files in the MP3 format and so forth.
