Abstract

According to a first aspect of the invention, there is provided a display assembly device comprising first and second faces, the first face arranged to present a first display and the second face arranged to present an optional second display, the device further comprising a computer system operable to run a plurality of application programs using one or more processors to execute a set of stored instructions, wherein the one or more processors is configured by the set of instructions to limit arrangements in which content is displayable on at least one of the displays as display content associated with an application program provisioned on a device infrastructure of the display assembly device.

Claims

1. A display assembly device comprising first and second faces, the first face arranged to present a first display and the second face arranged to present an optional second display, the device further comprising a computer system operable to run a plurality of application programs using one or more processors to execute a set of stored instructions, wherein the one or more processors is configured by the set of instructions to limit arrangements in which content is displayable on at least one of the displays as display content associated with an application program provisioned on a device infrastructure of the display assembly device.

2. Device of claim 1, wherein the second display is a bi-stable display.

3. Device of claim 1, wherein the first display is a touch screen, or the second display is a touch screen, or the first display and the second display are touch screens.

4. Device of claim 1, wherein the second display is a touch screen, and wherein second screen output is configurable as a configurable response to a selectable touch input gesture on the second screen of the device.

5. Device of claim 1, wherein the first display is a bi-stable display.

6. Device of claim 1, wherein the device is a bar factor mobile phone.

7. Device of claim 1, wherein the device assembly is a bar factor mobile phone coupled to a device cover.

8. Device claim 1, wherein the computer system is configured to limit arrangements in which content is displayable on the second display in that the computer system includes a secure processor configured to limit arrangements in which content is displayable on the second display.

11. The device of claim 1, wherein the display content is based on an identified state of the application program to result in display data transferred from the first display to the second display.

12. The device of claim 1, wherein the display content is based on an identified state of the device infrastructure to result in display data transferred from the first display to the second display.

13. The device of claim 1, wherein the display content is based on an identified state of the device infrastructure to result in display data redirected from display on the first display to display on the second display.

14. The device of claim 13, wherein the device infrastructure has the state of the first display in a powered off mode.

15. The device of claim 1, wherein the display content represents a notification message.

16. The device of claim 1, wherein the display content is from the software program that is authenticated to display data on the first display.

17. The device of claim 1, wherein the display content is based on an identified event of the application program to result in contextual display data displayed on the second display based on application workflow event performed by the software application via the first display.

18. The device of claim 1, wherein the display content is based on an identified event of the device infrastructure to result in contextual display data displayed on the second display based on application workflow event performed by the device infrastructure via the first display.

19. The device of claim 1, wherein the display content is based on an identified event of the device infrastructure or the application program to result in display data redirected from display on the first display to display on the second display, wherein the device infrastructure has a state of the first display in a powered off mode.

20. The device of claim 1, wherein the display content is based on haptic input and output related to a user interface operation of the user interface of the device and haptic related data received by a network device over a communications network, a network interface of the device connected to the network interface to send and receive haptic related data.

9. Method of limiting the arrangement in which content is displayable on a bar form factor display device, the device comprising front and back major faces, the front major face arranged to present a first display and the back major face arranged to present a second display different to the first display, the device further comprising a computer system operable to run a plurality of application programs, wherein the computer system is configured to limit arrangements in which content is displayable on the second display by the application programs, the method comprising the step of:

limiting the arrangement in which content is displayable on the second display by an application program.

10. Computer program product for a bar form factor display device, the device comprising front and back major faces, the front major face arranged to present a first display and the back major face arranged to present a second display different to the first display, the device further comprising a computer system operable to run a plurality of application programs, wherein the computer system is configured to limit arrangements in which content is displayable on the second display by the application programs, the computer program product operable to limit the arrangement in which content is displayable on the second display by an application program.
