Abstract:
A method for providing user interface data controlling a multimedial layout of a user interface for a mobile telecommunications terminal is disclosed. The method comprises generating at least one user interface data set in a first mobile telecommunications terminal,receiving data relating to at least a portion of the user interface data set, from the first mobile telecommunications terminal, in a server coupled to the first mobile telecommunications terminal, receiving a first request, in the server, for the user interface data set, from a second mobile telecommunications terminal coupled to the server, and transferring the user interface data set to the second mobile telecommunications terminal as a result of said first request.
Abstract:
An acoustical positioning system for positioning a portable electronic devicecomprising: a loudspeaker system comprising three or more loudspeakers and a control unit operable according to a first time reference wherein the control unit controls the transmission of a series of audio beacons from the loudspeakers, wherein a first beacon is transmitted at a first time of the first time reference from a first speaker, a second beacon is transmitted at a second time of the first time reference from a second speaker, and a third beacon is transmitted at a third time of the first time reference from a third speaker; at least one portable electronic device operable according to a second time reference and comprising: synchronization means for synchronising the second time reference to the first time reference; a microphone for receiving the transmitted series of audio beacons; means for detecting the time according to the second' time reference at which an audio beacon is received and for identifying the origin of the received audio beacon, wherein the first beacon is received at a fourth time according to the second time reference, the second beacon is received at a fifth time according to the second time, and the third beacon is received at a sixth time according to the second time reference; and means for determining a position of the portable device using relative positions of the first, second and third speakers and the difference between the first time and the fourth time, between the second time and the fifth time, and between the third time and the sixth time.

Abstract:
The present invention relates to a method in a portable, digital device for generating a multimedia message, comprising a multimedia object, and to such a digital portable device. The method involves the following steps: a) emitting an interrogating radio signal in order to stimulate an RFID-transponder tag to emit a response signal; b) receiving such a response signal, which includes tag information, associated with a multimedia object; and c) initiating the transmission of a multimedia message based upon the tag information. This allows a multimedia message to be created without extra work for the user.
