| 20090204464 | ELECTRONIC DEVICE AND METHOD FOR DETERMINING TIME PERIODS FOR MEETINGS - A portable electronic device method of determining time periods for a meeting includes receiving an indication of at least two invitees for the meeting, obtaining calendar data for the invitees, determining free time periods for the invitees based on the calendar data, and creating a list of the free time periods for the invitees. | 08-13-2009 |
| 20090204904 | ELECTRONIC DEVICE AND METHOD FOR DETERMINING TIME PERIODS FOR A MEETING - A method of determining time periods for a meeting includes receiving an indication of at least two invitees for the meeting, obtaining calendar data for the invitees, determining common free time periods for the invitees based on the calendar data, and time-based collecting of calendar event records and the common free time periods. | 08-13-2009 |
| 20100131521 | METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR MANAGING MEMORY IN AN ELECTRONIC DEVICE - A method and apparatus for managing a memory at an electronic device is provided. A first number of new media files that can be stored in the memory in a current format is determined. It is determined if a memory management condition is met. If the memory management condition is met, the current format is setting to a second format such that the memory can store a second number of new media files, if acquired, a given new media file in the second format occupying less of the memory than if the given new media file is in the current format, such that the second number is greater than the first number. | 05-27-2010 |

| 20100190467 | METHOD OF INTEGRATING EMERGENCY INFORMATION IN A MOBILE DEVICE - A wireless communications device displays an emergency information screen presenting emergency contact information for one or more emergency contacts. This emergency contact information is automatically integrated from the address book by identifying contacts in the address book that have been designated by the owner of the device as emergency contacts. The device can automatically update the emergency contact information by periodically polling the address book to ascertain whether any changes have been made to the contact information. | 07-29-2010 |
| 20100190468 | METHOD OF PROVIDING LOCATION INFORMATION IN AN EMERGENCY - A password-protected wireless communications device can send a map or other location information about the current location of the device to the one or more emergency contacts by utilizing an emergency interface element that bypasses a password prompt. The location information may include an address and route directions to the current location of the device. The location information may also include a map of, and directions to, the closest hospital. The device can also render its own map to show a first responder where the closest emergency contact is located or where the nearest hospital or medical service provider is situated. | 07-29-2010 |
| 20100190479 | MOBILE DEVICE USER INTERFACE FOR DISPLAYING EMERGENCY INFORMATION - A wireless communications device displays emergency information such as, for example, contact information for multiple next of kin or other contact persons as well as personal, medical or travel-specific information about the owner of the device. This emergency information is made accessible on a graphical user interface or display screen of the device to a first responder, paramedic or other person coming to the rescue of the owner of the wireless communications device. Multiple contacts, which may optionally be arranged in order of proximity to the current location of the device, are presented to the first responder so as to provide the first responder with alternate contacts. Where the contacts are dynamically re-prioritized in terms of relative distance to the current location of the device, the emergency contacts that are presented to the first responder have the added advantage of being more geographically relevant and easier to understand based on relevant content being translated to a language appropriate to the current location. | 07-29-2010 |
| 20110028132 | MOBILE PHONE ARRIVAL TIME ESTIMATOR - A method and mobile device for providing a meeting place for two mobile devices and arrival time of at least one of the mobile devices at the meeting place is provide. A first mobile device receives location information for a second mobile device and determines location information itself. Then, the first mobile device determines a meeting place based on the location information of the first mobile device and the location information of the second mobile device. Next, an approximate time for the first mobile device to travel to the meeting place is calculated and output, together with the location of the meeting, to a user interface on the first mobile device. | 02-03-2011 |
| 20110157420 | FILING DIGITAL IMAGES USING VOICE INPUT - Method and device for naming digital image data files stored on a camera enabled device having an image sensor, an audio sensor, a display and a memory, including: capturing image data through the image sensor; automatically displaying on the display a default filename for an image data file for the captured image data; monitoring the audio sensor for voice input upon detecting a user input selecting the default filename, and determining a new filename for the image data file in dependence on a text translation of the voice input. A folder name can alternatively be determined in dependence on a text translation of a voice input and an image data file for the captured image data saved in the memory using a folder having the folder name. | 06-30-2011 |
