Abstract

A method of displaying a plurality of picture files on a display of a portable wireless communication device is described. The method comprises receiving a plurality of picture files, wherein each picture file of the plurality of picture files has location data stored in a location field for the picture file and relationship data in a relationship field related to at least one other picture file; displaying a first image associated with a first picture file; and displaying a second image in response to a prompt for a next image.

Claims

1. A method of displaying an image of a plurality of images on a display of a portable wireless communication device, the method comprising:

receiving a plurality of picture files, wherein each picture file of the plurality of picture files has location data stored in a location field for the picture file and relationship data in a relationship field related to at least one other picture file;

displaying a first image associated with a first picture file; and

displaying a second image in response to a prompt for a next image.

2. The method of claim 1 wherein the second image is a zoomed-out version of the first image.

3. The method of claim 1 wherein the second image is associated with a second picture file.

4. The method of claim 3 wherein the second picture file is zoomed-out image of the first picture file.

5. The method of claim 1 wherein the first picture file and the second picture file are associated with a first location.

6. The method of claim 1 wherein the prompt is provided by a user.

7. The method of claim 1 wherein the prompt is provided in response to a time-out.

8. A method of displaying an image of a plurality of images on a display of a portable wireless communication device, the method comprising:

displaying a first image associated with a first picture file having location data stored in a location field and relationship data in a relationship field related to at least one other picture file;

receiving a prompt to display a next image; and

displaying a second image in response to a prompt for a next image, wherein the second image has the location data in the location field and is a related image.

9. The method of claim 8 wherein the second image is a zoomed-out version of the first image.

10. The method of claim 8 wherein the second image is associated with a second picture file.

11. The method of claim 10 wherein the second picture file is zoomed-out image of the first picture file.

12. The method of claim 8 further comprising enabling the user to identify the location of the picture file.

13. The method of claim 12 wherein enabling the user to identify the location of the picture file comprises enabling the user to select a location of a plurality of locations, provided on the display, which might be associated with the picture file.

14. The method of claim 12 wherein enabling the user to identify the location of the picture file comprises enabling the user to enter an answer on a display.

15. A portable wireless device enabling the display of an image, the portable wireless device comprising:

a memory storing a plurality of picture files, wherein each picture file of the plurality of picture files has location data stored in a location field for the picture file and relationship data in a relationship field related to at least one other picture file;

a control circuit coupled to the memory, the control circuit enabling the display of a first image associated with a first picture file of the plurality of picture files and a second image is displayed in response to a prompt for a new image; and

a display enabling a user to identify a location associated with the first picture file,

wherein the second image has the location data in the location field and is a related image.

16. The portable wireless device of claim 15 wherein the second image is a zoomed-out version of the first image.

17. The portable wireless device of claim 15 wherein the second image is associated with a second picture file, and the second picture file is zoomed-out image of the first picture file.

18. The portable wireless device of claim 15 wherein the first picture file and the second picture file are associated with a first location.

19. The portable wireless device of claim 15 wherein the prompt is provided by a user.

20. The portable wireless device of claim 15 wherein the prompt is provided in response to a time-out.
