| 20080209182 | MULTI-MODE DATA PROCESSING DEVICE AND METHODS THEREOF - A data processing device and methods thereof are disclosed. The data processing device can operate in three different modes. In a first, N-bit mode, the data processing device performs memory accesses based on N-bit values and performs arithmetic operations using N-bit values. In a second, hybrid N-bit/M-bit mode, the data processing device performs memory accesses based on M-bit values, where M is less than N, and performs arithmetic operations using N-bit values. In a third, M-bit mode, the data processing device performs memory accesses based on M-bit values and performs arithmetic operations using M-bit values. The three modes provide for compatibility with a wide range of applications. Further operation in the M-bit mode can provide a power savings when implementing applications compatible with that mode. | 08-28-2008 |

| 20080252603 | Condensed Keyboard for Electronic Devices - Apparatuses and systems for generating characters for electronic devices using condensed keyboards are disclosed. One embodiment comprises a keyboard that monitors two sets, of keys, one for each hand, for manipulation and desired character generation. The keyboard generally has four or more keys for each hand, and the keyboard may be located on the back and/or sides of a portable electronic device. One or several of the keys may generate multiple characters, depending on how the user manipulates the key while depressing it. A further embodiment may display cues of help information on a display screen of the system, assisting users in typing with the keys since the users may be unable to easily observe their fingers. That is to say, some embodiments may provide support for people with no touch-typing skills and accommodate key configurations on the back of devices with an embodiment keyboard. | 10-16-2008 |
