Abstract:
Apparatus comprises at least one processor and at least one memory, having stored thereon computer-readable code, the at least one processor being configured under the control of the computer-readable code to cause primary content to be displayed on a display with a first magnification level, to be responsive to an indication of a receipt of a first zoom command, the first zoom command being for causing alteration of the magnification level from the first magnification level to a second magnification level, to determine if the second magnification level is beyond a threshold magnification level, if it is determined that the second magnification level is not beyond the threshold magnification level, to cause the primary content to be displayed on the display with the second magnification level, and if it is determined that the second magnification level is beyond the threshold magnification level, to cause a first set of one or more additional information items relating to the primary content to be displayed on the display in addition to the primary content.
Abstract:
Systems, apparatuses and methods for facilitating identification of the originator of a communication. A communication is received from a sending device. Sending device identification information is requested from a distributed contact database fashioned from the contact databases of the communication devices in a group of communication devices. If the sending device identification information is available at a given communication device, it is received from the communication device.
Abstract:
An approach is provided for generating a relevant social graph. A social graph identifying people associated with a user is retrieved. A communication history from a device associated with the user is retrieved. Information regarding a respective occurrence of each identified person in the communication history is determined. A relevant social graph is generated based, at least in part, on the determined occurrence information.

Abstract:
In a mobile communications device used in countries having a prevailing language with a large number of alphabet characters, the keypad is mapped alphabet into two groups and mapping each of the groups to the keypad to provide two independent modes of selection. The user can toggle from one mode to the other by operating a separate switch to enable selections from each of the alphabet groups.
Abstract:
A mobile communication apparatus is disclosed, comprising a processor and a user interface UI connected to said processor, wherein said UI comprises a touch sensitive rotator input including a first sensor for providing a start signal indicating the starting position of a touch entry, and a second sensor for providing a rotation signal indicating an amount of rotation of said subsequent touch entry and the rate of movement. A processor uses a predictive system indicating a next likely entry and the sensor signals to present a selection on a display. Reliance on the predictive system is adjusted according to the speed of movement of the touch entry.

Abstract:
The present invention provides a method of inputting ideographic characters into a handheld device, comprising steps of: predicting ideographic characters that correspond to symbols inputted by a user, for said user to select; predicting, based on a previous ideographic character that has been selected by said user, ideographic characters that most likely follow said previous ideographic character but cannot form a phrase with said previous ideographic character, for said user to select; and inputting ideographic characters that have been selected by said user into said handheld device. The present invention also provides an apparatus for inputting ideographic characters and a handheld device. According to the invention, more ideographic characters and punctuation marks are automatically predicted, which speeds up the process of inputting ideographic characters into handheld devices.
