US Patent:
7738912, Jun 15, 2010
Filed:
May 4, 2007
Appl. No.:
11/744661
Inventors:
Jeffrey Charles Hawkins - Atherton CA, US
Priscilla S. Cinque - Santa Cruz CA, US
Gregory T. Shirai - Oakland CA, US
Robert Yuji Haitani - Menlo Park CA, US
Nancy Gayed - San Francisco CA, US
Assignee:
Palm, Inc. - Sunnyvale CA
International Classification:
H04M 1/00
US Classification:
4555501, 455564, 455566
Abstract:
In a communication device, user activation of a speed-dial button causes a context-sensitive menu to be displayed. The menu lists available options, or communication modes, for contacting the party associated with the speed-dial button. The user can select an item from the menu in order to initiate communication with the selected party using the communication mode associated with the menu item. In various aspects, the invention provides additional functionality for redialing previously called contact numbers, assigning speed-dial buttons to other commands and functions, and displaying presence information for contacts.

US Patent:
7743188, Jun 22, 2010
Filed:
Aug 10, 2005
Appl. No.:
11/202435
Inventors:
Robert Haitani - Menlo Park CA, US
Gregory Shirai - Oakland CA, US
Nancy Gayed - San Francisco CA, US
Ramachandran Venkataraman - Sunnyvale CA, US
Thomas Kier - Scotts Valley CA, US
Assignee:
Palm, Inc. - Sunnyvale CA
International Classification:
G06F 13/12
US Classification:
710 67, 710 62, 707 3, 707 5
Abstract:
Embodiments described herein provide a method and technique for operating a computing device. An interface is displayed for enabling the computing device to control a voicemail system. The interface includes one or more display objects, wherein each display object is selectable by a user to enter a command input assigned to that display object. A selection is detected of any one of the one or more display objects, and the command input assigned to the display object is identified. A signal tone is generated corresponding to the command input. The signal input may be transmitted across a network to the voicemail system to communicate a command to the voicemail system.
