USER INTERFACE AND METHOD OF VIEWING UNIFIED COMMUNICATIONS EVENTS ON A MOBILE DEVICE
First Claim
1. A communications event handler for integration in a communication device having a user interface, the communications event handler comprising:
- a database interface for communicating with a communications event database to retrieve a communications event history of at least one communication type associated with a correspondent in response to a communications event; and
a user interface controller for receiving the retrieved communications event history from the database interface, and for controlling the user interface to provide the retrieved communication event history to a user.

Abstract
A user interface and method for viewing communications events on a mobile device includes a user interface, a communications event handler, and a communications event database is disclosed herein. The communications event handler interfaces with the database and the user interface to the provide a user of the mobile device with a communications event history associated with the correspondent of an incoming communications event. Additionally the communications event handler interfaces with the database and the user interface to the provide a user of the mobile device with a communications event history for a specified correspondent.

2. A wireless device, comprising:
-
a viewing screen; a processor; a memory device that stores communication events of at least one communication type that have been transmitted or received by the wireless device; and a communication event software interface module executed by the processor that (a) filters each of the communication events stored in the memory device to identify one or more select communication events meeting a pre-set criteria, and (b) displays the one or more select communication events on the viewing screen. - View Dependent Claims (3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10)

11. A wireless device, comprising:
-
a viewing screen; a processor; a memory device that stores communication events of at least one communication type that have been transmitted or received by the wireless device; and a communication event software interface module executed by the processor that (a) locates one or more select communication events by filtering each communication event stored in the memory device to identify stored communication events matching a pre-set criteria, and (b) displays the one or more select communication events on the viewing screen. - View Dependent Claims (12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18)

19. A method for displaying communication events on a wireless device unifying one or more of a plurality of stored communication events of at least one communication type, comprising the steps of:
-
filtering each stored communication event to identify one or more select communication events meeting a pre-set criteria; and displaying the one or more select communication events meeting the pre-set criteria. - View Dependent Claims (20, 21, 22, 23, 24)

25. A method for displaying one or more communication events of at least one communication type on a wireless device, comprising the steps of:
-
identifying indexing data for each stored communication event; identifying current indexing data for the pre-set criteria; comparing the current indexing data with the indexing data for each stored communication event to identify select communication events having indexing data that falls within a pre-set storage proximity range from the current indexing data; and displaying the select communication events identified as having indexing data falling within the pre-set storage proximity range. - View Dependent Claims (26, 27, 28, 29, 30)

31. A method for displaying a current communication event on a wireless device unified with one or more of a plurality of stored communication events of at least one communication type, comprising the steps of:
-
providing pre-set criteria; comparing the each stored communication event with the pre-set criteria; and displaying the current communication event on a viewing screen along with each of the stored communication events which match the pre-set criteria. - View Dependent Claims (32, 33, 34)
