The communication device also includes memory coupled to the process unit (the central control IC) as the storage of data and the operating system. The memory may include read only memory (ROM), random access memory (RAM), non-volatile flash memory and so on according to different properties. The RF communication module may process the reception of the signal, the processing of baseband and the processing of the digital signals, etc. Finally, the voice signals are transmitted to the output device such as speaker/microphone unit. Generally, unchanged data may be stored in mask ROM while the system operating software or the fixed applications may typically be stored in non-volatile memory and other commands may be executed. The internal data therein may still be retained under no power state, and the non-volatile memory may be read out or be written in repeatedly when powered.
A method for establishing an address book which employs dynamic images (may include or may not include audio) to represent contact persons is shown in FIG. 2. The method includes: the address book application or command in a device is activated by the user through the user interface in step 2000, where the device may include computer, notebook, smart phone, tablet PC, etc. The user may be prompted by the display of the device to input or choose contact persons into the address book application or command in step 2100; the user inputs the dynamic images to represent the contact persons in step 2200 and optionally further inputs related communication information, which may include voices or texts, to establish one contact person news feed. The contact person related communication information may include telephone numbers, email address, blog URL, instant messaging account, Facebook account or Twitter account or the combination thereof. Subsequently, the user may store that contact person related communication information into the memory of the device through the user interface in step 2300 and optionally may upload the contact person related communication information to the remote or cloud server in step 2400 to complete the establishment of that contact person information.
FIGS. 3 and 4 disclose other embodiments of the present invention respectively. Each of the embodiments may be performed separately or collectively. The transmitter (the user) is coupled to the remote or cloud server in step 300, and then clicks or designates the files to be transmitted (downloaded). In other words, the transmitter may designate file in step 310. After the transmitter inputs information such as the receiver information, the server transmits the file designated by the transmitter to the portable device of the designated receiver through for example the telecommunication network or the Internet in step 320. Then, the receiver receives the transmitted designated file in step 330, and embeds the designated file via the address book application in step 340 as shown in FIG. 5. The method shown in FIG. 4 is similar to that in FIG. 3 except that the user clicks and downloads the file into his/her terminal device in step 410 and transmits the file by himself/herself to the receiver in step 420.
In one exemplary embodiment, a RSS (Really Simple Syndication) is implanted into the address book of the portable device to subscribe to updated news or implant advertisement into the address book of the portable device. The user doesn't need to connect with the Internet to look up specific websites, but the subscribed news will be transmitted directly to the personal portable device to be displayed immediately. As long as the RSS location of the news provider or the adaptive news transmitting service system is copied to the reading software, the subscribing procedure is completed. When the reading software is activated or the customized home page is logged in, the updated contents can be received at any time. It should be noted that the method of the present invention doesn't need the subscriber to connect the network to enter a specific website and then look up the news. The RSS subscription may be customizedly set in the portable device such as the mobile phone. For example, a Widget tool or a Widget RSS reader may be implanted in the portable device, in order for the portable device to show various kinds of latest news. The RSS reading software may also be employed to follow blogs. The transmitting module of the present adaptive news or information transmitting service system may convey a keyword interface in order for the subscriber to customize keywords, so as to customize the desired news or information according to the keywords. For instance, if the user desires to follow the “global warming” news, he/she can set the aforementioned keyword into the system. When the matching module or the searching module finds out or detects news or information which matches or corresponds to the keywords set by the subscriber, that news or information may be transmitted to the portable communication device of the subscriber or the receiver. Therefore, the news transmitting service system may convey the keyword input interface in order for the subscriber to input keywords. The subscriber clicks the setting after inputting the keywords. The searched or matched news may be viewed via the applications in the portable device. The applications may be browsers or readers.
The present invention provides a dynamic image input representation method. Thus, after the address book or the phone book is activated, a dynamic image is employed to show, represent, replace or indicate a person (a natural person or a juristic person) for recognition. As an example, a digital camera module may be activated to capture a dynamic image to indicate the contact person and record voice information. If a dynamic image (video) of a contact person is captured, the address book application will generate a contact person utilizing the captured dynamic image and put it into the contact person field. If his/her nickname is piggy, a piglet picture may be utilized as the image to represent the contact person, so as to recognize the contact person and enhance pleasure. The corresponding relationship of the information thereof is shown in FIG. 5, which is only an example, not for limiting the present invention. For example, matrix arrangement, no communication data arrangement, no name arrangement, lateral arrangement, longitudinal arrangement, or honeycomb shaped arrangement as shown in FIG. 6 may be utilized. Based on the aforementioned, the device of the present invention includes the address book or the phone book stored therein, which employs dynamic images to represent the name of the natural person or the juristic person, so as to be presented on the portable communication device for recognition. The person having ordinary skill in the address book application art may write programs or implant programs or a contact person generating module to process them. Common computer conventional path indicating commands may also be utilized in order for the user to find out proper stored picture files in accordance with the path indications, so as to click them as the contact person representative image. Thus, the phone book application of the portable device may employ images to represent the contact persons and the related information. The related information may include mobile phone number, local telephone number, email address, internet phone address (number) or blog URL and may be one of the aforementioned or any combination thereof depending upon the need. This embodiment takes the portable device as an example, and is not limited thereto. Therefore, such embodiment may also be applied to computer, notebook, server, personal digital assistant, etc.
Aforementioned description is to illustrate purposes of the present invention, technical characteristics to achieve the purposes, and the advantages brought from the technical characteristics, and so on. And the present invention can be further understood by the following description of the preferred embodiment accompanying with the claim.
