Abstract:
A rugged hard drive includes a PC board mounted in an enclosure in a plane that is between, and parallel to two enclosure walls with the PC board being free to flex within the enclosure along an axis of the board when the hard drive is subjected to shock, or vibration, and with the enclosure including gaps, between the board and the inner surfaces of the enclosure, filled with silicone gel to cover electrical components on the board.
Abstract:
A wireless device capable of being located over a network by a requesting party comprises a phone, and a display to display a visually- continuous location privacy slider having at least five stops. Each of the at least five stops corresponds to a given combination of settings within the phone relating to a privacy of reporting of location of the wireless device to a requesting device.
Abstract:
A system and method of delaying delivery of a content message to a mobile device is provided. A control message, associated with a mobile device, based on location information associated with the mobile device is received. A content message for the mobile device is received. Delivery of the content message to the mobile device is delayed based on the control message.
Abstract:
A third, location-based level of security is added to physical possession, and entry of an authorized passcode, of an authentication token (or security token) fob to provide added security based on a location of attempted access to a secure network resource. A current location of the location-based authentication token fob is obtained, and combined with an entered passcode, to form a passcode key. The passcode key is compared against pre-registered authorized passcode keys (including pre- registered authorized locations for use of the location-based authentication token) to determine authorization for access.
Abstract:
A personal wireless navigation system operable on wireless phone devices provides a platform for empowering a merchant-paid search. Performance of a navigation functionality in a personal wireless navigation system is higher and more comparable and competitive with portable navigation devices and in-car navigation systems, and the search capability is comparable and competitive with the most popular web search engines. A user interface (Ul) and look and feel of the personal wireless navigation system is provided which is enhanced so that users do not simply want to use the product - they covet it. The personal wireless navigation system may be constructed such that a subset of it with fewer features and functions can be productized, marketed and deployed to users.
Abstract:
An in-network wireless device call/message management system and method. The system comprises a wireless network, a controlled region served by the wireless network, a location service platform to ascertain location of wireless devices in the controlled region, a database memory to store call/message permission status of certain of the wireless devices in the controlled region, and a call/message manager to monitor incoming/outgoing calls and/or messages of certain of said wireless devices where the manager effects implementation of call privileges according to the permission status and location of managed wireless device within the controlled region.
Abstract:
The present invention takes the advantages of a First- Delivery-Attempt (FDA) system/Short Message Service Center (SMSC) combination. The FDA/SMSC combination has the advantages of SS7-clustering and IP load-distribution, and adds call-flow and business logic to eliminate the disadvantages created in stand-alone architectures using those technologies in isolation. All messages can be addressed to a single destination, with the FDA/SMSC combination performing load distribution for delivery of the messages. Nodes can be added to the message processing system to increase capacity, with no configuration changes being required in an SS7 network or an external IP network.
Abstract translation:本发明具有首次尝试(FDA)系统/短消息服务中心(SMSC)组合的优点。 FDA / SMSC组合具有SS7集群和IP负载分配的优点,并增加了呼叫流和业务逻辑,以消除使用这些技术隔离的独立架构中创建的缺点。 所有消息都可以寻址到单个目的地,FDA / SMSC组合执行负载分配以传递消息。 节点可以添加到消息处理系统以增加容量,而SS7网络或外部IP网络中不需要配置更改。
Abstract:
A system allows a user to select an individual address from the multiple addresses for additional information on that particular address. Multiple addresses can be viewed together on a map for selection purposes. Selection of a particular address can trigger new GUIs for presentation of context information for a particular location to a user. Context information can include differing map views, e.g., map view, satellite view, terrain view, etc., landmarks, photos taken from that particular address, local businesses, telephone numbers for that particular address, etc. Presentation of context information can assist a user in making a more informed decision as to which addresses from multiple presented possible addresses to select. Context information provide criteria to select and/or rule out a particular address.
Abstract:
An automated system for matching a calling potential buyer on a VoIP phone with a prospective commercial business within their current area. The buyer may accept or reject connection with a best available prospective business to be automatically presented with the next prospective business as ranked by the presenting business locating service. The location of the potential buyer is provided or obtained, and the best available business selected from the database based on proximity to the buyer's current location. A secondary prioritization may be applied to highest bidding businesses. The business finding module establishes a VoIP conference bridge, and invites the buyer and best available business. A pre-recorded message may be played into the conference bridge or directly to the buyer or business. The businesses may be ranked based on how much they pay or bid to be presented first to potential buyers.
Abstract:
Email server side or client side components either remove email attachments from the relevant email, or identify the attachment while the email is being composed and makes the attachment available from a secure website or file hosting site. The recipient then receives instructions in the email and links to access the attachments rather than the attachments themselves. Email attachment size limitations are overcome for sender/recipient mail systems. Also, file type limitations related to email attachments are overcome, provides improved attachment security, and reduces email bandwidth costs.
