20080259095 | Method and Apparatus for Changing Display Orientations on a Monitor of a Portable Computer - A method for changing the display orientation on a monitor of a portable computer after the portable computer has been rotated by a user is disclosed. In response to a detection that the portable computer has been physically rotated, a determination is made whether or not the new physical orientation is unchanged within a predetermined period of time. If the new physical orientation has been changed within the predetermined period of time, the portable computer continues to detect for a physical rotation. If the new physical orientation is unchanged within the predetermined period of time, a display orientation on a monitor of the portable computer is adjusted to accommodate the new physical orientation. | 10-23-2008 |
20090037825 | MODE-SWITCHING IN ULTRA MOBILE DEVICES - Arrangements for managing displays of ultra-mobile devices (UMD's). Automatically or manually, a small-mode interface on a UMD screen, wherein one application window is visible, is switched to a large-mode interface. | 02-05-2009 |
20090222651 | S3 BIOS OPERATING SYSTEM SWITCH - Arrangements for employing a system BIOS (basic input/output system) to handle email during a suspended state (such as an “S3” state as will be better understood herebelow). Preferably, the BIOS is employed to “jump” between two suspended images such that, e.g., two more powerful OS's can be employed to manage the mail function. | 09-03-2009 |
20100082746 | SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR WEB SITE DRIVEN COLLABORATIVE WEB BROWSING - The invention provides a system comprising: a CPU; a memory in communication with the CPU; instructions stored in the memory and executable by the CPU to establish a collaborative web browsing session, the instructions further comprising: instructions enabling at least one peer device to join the collaborative web browsing session at a web site hosted by an automated peer. | 04-01-2010 |
20100083132 | PREVENTING REDIRECTION LOOPS DURING COLLABORATIVE WEB BROWSING - A system for preventing redirection loops during collaborative web browsing is provided comprising: a CPU; a memory in communication with the CPU; instructions stored in the memory and executable by the CPU to prevent redirects encountered during a collaborative web browsing session, the instructions further comprising: instructions enabling a device to join a collaborative web browsing session; instructions enabling detection of a redirection loop; and instructions enabling termination of the redirect loop. | 04-01-2010 |
20100083135 | COLLABORATIVE WEB NAVIGATION USING DOCUMENT OBJECT MODEL (DOM) BASED DOCUMENT REFERENCES - A system for collaborative web browsing is provided comprising: a CPU; a system memory in communication with said CPU; a display medium; and instructions stored in the system memory and executable by the CPU, the instructions comprising: enabling a device to join a collaborative web browsing session; enabling a data navigation module to provide, upon an object appearing upon the display medium being selected by a user, outgoing navigation data that enables a rendering of the object to be distinguished from other objects rendered upon at least one other display medium of at least one other device. | 04-01-2010 |
20100132032 | FACILITATING ACCESS TO DATA FROM VIRTUAL PRIVATE NETWORKS - Arrangements and methods for facilitating access to VPN-derived data regardless of computing platform power state. | 05-27-2010 |
20120081615 | REMOTE CONTROL - An apparatus includes a display, a communication interface, circuitry configured to receive information via the communication interface via a handshake process where the information includes identifying information for a television unit, and circuitry configured to render a graphical remote control to the display based at least in part on received identifying information for a television unit. Various other apparatuses, systems, methods, etc., are also disclosed. | 04-05-2012 |
