    Abstract: The present invention relates to a method and apparatus that provides for user interaction with soft key functions on a wireless communication device (100) where the number of softkey functions exceeds the number of physical softkeys available. An initial assignment of softkey functions to the available softkeys (118) on the user interface of the wireless communication device is made. Thereafter, subsequent softkey assignments may be altered through an interaction with the navigation keys (120). Additionally, the user is given the option of selecting among different softkey function presentation and alteration schemes.

    Abstract: A method and apparatus for providing hypermedia content maintained remotely on a network to a wireless device without a browser are described. A Short Message Service (SMS) request for Internet-based content is received from a wireless device (100) on a wireless network (102) at a proxy server (108) via an SMS Center (SMSC) (212). The proxy server transcodes the SMS request from a character set of the SMSC to a character set of an application and extracts a keyword from the trancoded request. The proxy server looks up the extracted keyword in a keyword-to-URL mapping to identify the URL of an application associated with the keyword and constructs an HTTP POST operation containing the keyword and the URL which is submitted to the application over a wireline network such as the Internet (215). The proxy server extracts the requested content from a received HTTP response from the application in response to the POST operation, and then translates the content from the content-type used by the application to the content-type used by the SMSC and transcodes the content from the character set used by the application to the character set used by the SMSC. The translated and transcoded content is then sent as an SMS response to the SMSC, for subsequent delivery to wireless device as an SMS message.

    Abstract: A system for displaying idle content information on wireless computing devices during idle times is disclosed. A wireless computing device (106) receives from a wireless network (102) idle content information specified by an address identifier identifying a network resource in the wireless network. When the device determined as being idle, the idle content information is displayed on the device display (116). The idle content information might be the network operators customer support telephone number or advertisements. A browser program within the device may be modified to support looping content, interaction with idle displays, automatic scrolling, and automatic updating of idle content information.
