H04M 100

US Classification:

4555562, 4555561, 340 72, 340 732

Abstract:

A system and method for reducing power consumed by an integrated electronic device. The device includes a personal data assistant (PDA) unit and a wireless telephone integrated in a common housing. A common display on the housing is used for displaying messages from both the PDA and the wireless telephone to a user. A controller, coupled to the wireless telephone, places the wireless telephone in a power-off state after expiration of a predetermined period of time following cessation of voice traffic activity on the wireless telephone. The controller switches the wireless telephone from the power-off state to a power-on state if, during operation in the power-off state, a user begins an attempt to place an outgoing call with the wireless telephone. The wireless telephone is unable to receive an incoming call when the wireless telephone is in the power-off state. However, the PDA is operable to receive information from the user through the display and display information to the user on the display when the wireless telephone is in the power-off state.

International Classification:

H04M 3493

US Classification:

37935601, 37935502

Abstract:

A telephone has several lists of phone numbers. Each phone number within a list has a number of digits which is not less than a predetermined minimum number, and not more than a predetermined maximum number. The maximum number is the âsizeâ of the list. When a digit is entered, the phone compares ( B) the number of digits entered to the lists, and selects ( C) the list of the smallest size which is greater than or equal to the number of digits entered. That list is searched ( D) and the results displayed ( E) when the search is complete. If another digit is entered during the search ( F), the comparing ( B) and list selecting ( C) steps are repeated.

International Classification:

G06F 15/16

US Classification:

709203, 709201

Abstract:

Apparatus and methods of providing or presenting data corresponding to communication events occurring on one or more wireless devices include receiving data for a plurality of communication events each corresponding to a location. Further, data corresponding to a map representation having a determined area is generated, wherein the determined area corresponds to a geographic area defined by an extent of the respective locations. Additionally, data corresponding to at least one of an individual representation or a combined representation is generated, wherein each individual representation corresponds to one of the plurality of communication events, and wherein each combined representation corresponds to a combination of at least two of the communication events if a predetermined overlap would exist between their respective individual representations on the map representation.

Assignee:

Qualcomm, Incorporated - San Diego CA

International Classification:

H04M 127

US Classification:

37935509, 3793551

Abstract:

A telephone ( ) includes a microphone ( ), earphone ( ), keypad ( ), and display unit ( ). The keypad ( ) is the preferred user interface for entry of a telephone number into the telephone so that the telephone may call it. However, a voice recognition device ( ) may be attached to the microphone with similar effect. The telephone includes a list ( ) of stored telephone numbers, which may be added onto the list in any convenient way. As digits are entered into the phone through the user interface ( ), a comparator ( ) compares the resulting partially entered number with the numbers on the list. When the comparison demonstrates some pre-established association between the numbers, then the stored number is displayed on the display unit ( ). If the user selects ( ) one of the displayed numbers (perhaps with scrolling), the number is called ( ). If not, the next digit is entered.
