20090221321SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR DIFFERENTIATING BETWEEN INCOMING AND OUTGOING MESSAGES AND IDENTIFYING CORRESPONDENTS IN A TTY COMMUNICATION - A method and system are provided that examine incoming and outgoing TTY transmissions to determine an identifier for distinguishing between correspondents in a TTY call. The system may utilize existing contact information associated wit an incoming call to provide context to a user for accepting incoming calls and during conversations and may apply various display settings. For TTY users, the additional context simplifies the ability to conduct critical reasoning, especially those with cognitive impairments. In particular, a picture from the user's address book is provided to assist in identifying the caller. The other display settings may include modified font styles, colours, multi-line display etc. to differentiate between incoming and outgoing messages.09-03-2009
20090323905SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR DIFFERENTIATING BETWEEN INCOMING AND OUTGOING MESSAGES AND IDENTIFYING CORRESPONDENTS IN A TTY COMMUNICATION - A method and system are provided that examine incoming and outgoing TTY transmissions to determine an identifier for distinguishing between correspondents in a TTY call. The system may utilize contact information associated with an incoming or outgoing call to provide visual distinctions, and/or flow control, to the text from each party as it is displayed on a TTY device.12-31-2009
20100272243AUTOMATED SELECTION OF TTY-MODES IN A MOBILE DEVICE - Disclosed is a method and apparatus for allowing a user to select, from a plurality of TTY-modes, one TTY-mode to associate with one phone number. The associated TTY-mode will be used for either incoming or outgoing calls using that phone number. Further disclosed are a plurality of TTY-modes to associate with individual phone numbers, and, a selectable set of default TTY-modes to use if no TTY-mode is associated with a particular phone number. Selectable audio modes, associable with phone numbers or with TTY-modes, is also discussed.10-28-2010
