摘要： The present application allows two-way communication between a remote client and a mobile device, such as a mobile phone. User's can be informed of phone events in real time, regardless of their proximity to the mobile device. A two-way communication link allows a remote client to communicate back to the mobile device to leverage the capabilities of the mobile device. For example, a mobile device can be controlled remotely to send a text message. In this way, third parties receive a text message from the mobile device itself, even though it is not in the user's possession.

摘要： A method and system for restoring device personality after failure. Specifically, the present invention discloses a method and system for automated personality transfer in a wireless enabled handheld device. In one embodiment, the present invention automatically extracts personality information that is unique and critical to the proper functionality of an electronic device. A personality file containing the personality information is created and stored on the electronic device. The personality file can be then transferred to another electronic device for archival purposes. Thereafter, should the personality information be lost due to device failure, embodiments of the present invention provide for restoring the electronic device back to its original operating state by importing the personality information back into the electronic device.

摘要： A method of switching a network access configuration associated with a first electronic system to a second electronic system via a network is described. The first electronic system is inoperable. The second electronic system replaces the first electronic system such that a user seamlessly transitions from the first electronic system to the second electronic system. The user continues to access the network resources using the second electronic system rather than the first electronic system. According to an embodiment of the present invention, an application for switching the network access configuration is invoked using the second electronic system. During a first phase, the application transmits first data to a network infrastructure provider. The network infrastructure provider obtains approval for switching the network access configuration from the network service provider. If the network service provider approves switching the network access configuration, the network infrastructure provider updates its databases such that the network access configuration of the first electronic system is associated with the second electronic system. During a second phase, the network service provider updates its databases such that the network access configuration of the first electronic system is associated with the second electronic system if the network infrastructure provider successfully updates its databases. At the conclusion of the second phase, the second electronic system can access the network using the network access configuration.

摘要： A method and system providing simultaneous data entry for a computer system having both on-screen keyboard entry and mechanisms for handwriting recognition entry. In one embodiment, a portable or palmtop computer system contains a flat panel display screen capable of displaying thereon a keyboard image (“virtual keyboard”). Characters can be entered into the computer system by a user interacting with (e.g., tapping) the displayed characters of the virtual keyboard. The computer system also provides a handwriting recognition mechanism (e.g., digitizer pad) whereby characters are recognized based on a user drawing strokes on the pad. In accordance with the present invention, the virtual keyboard and the handwriting recognition mechanism are simultaneously active for data entry. Therefore, the computer system can accept character entry from the handwriting recognition mechanism while the virtual keyboard is displayed and active and capable of providing character entry itself. Specifically, from the virtual keyboard, the user is allowed to either tap the individual buttons, representing characters, on the screen to enter data or the user can enter data via the handwriting recognition mechanism. Since both methods are active simultaneously, the user does not have to switch between them. The present invention gives a user increased flexibility in the manual entry of characters to the computer system.

摘要翻译： 一种为具有屏幕上键盘输入和用于手写识别输入的机构的计算机系统提供同时数据输入的方法和系统。 在一个实施例中，便携式或掌上型计算机系统包含能够在其上显示键盘图像（“虚拟键盘”）的平板显示屏。 用户可以通过与虚拟键盘的显示字符交互（例如轻敲）的用户将字符输入到计算机系统中。 计算机系统还提供了一种手写识别机构（例如，数字化仪垫），其中基于用户在衬垫上绘制笔画来识别字符。 根据本发明，虚拟键盘和手写识别机构同时用于数据输入。 因此，当虚拟键盘被显示和活动并且能够提供字符输入本身时，计算机系统可以接受来自手写识别机构的字符输入。 具体地说，从虚拟键盘，允许用户在屏幕上点击表示字符的各个按钮输入数据，或者用户可以经由手写识别机构输入数据。 由于两种方法同时有效，用户不需要在它们之间切换。 本发明给用户增加了将字符手动输入到计算机系统的灵活性。
