DATA TRANSFER USING HAND-HELD DEVICE
First Claim
1. A hand-held electronic device, comprising:
- a case;
a processor;
a memory;
a case motion sensor coupled to the processor;
a remote device detector coupled to the processor; and
a communication interface coupled to the memory and processor, wherein the file transfer device is configured to facilitate transfer of data stored in the memory between the memory and the remote device,wherein the processor is programmed with instructions that, when executed cause the device to recognize a remote device from a signal generated by the remote device detector, recognize a gesture from a signal generated by the case motion sensor as a result of motion of the case; and
transfer a file with the file transfer device from the memory to the remote device or vice versa in response to recognition of the gesture.

Abstract
A hand-held electronic device and file transfer method are disclosed. The device may comprise a case, a processor and a memory. A case motion sensor and a remote device detector may be coupled to the processor. A communication interface may be coupled to the memory and processor. The processor may be programmed with instructions that, when executed cause the device to recognize a remote device, recognize a gesture from resulting from motion of the case, and transfer a file from the hand-held device to the remote device or vice versa in response to recognition of the gesture. Alternatively, the instructions may cause the device to identify a file to be transferred from a source to a destination, identify the source and/or destination, recognize a gesture resulting from motion of the case, and transfer the file from the source to the destination in response to recognition of the gesture.
