1. A method, comprising:
- determining a first spatial position in relation to a plurality of objects on a user interface;
receiving through a network an input from a telephony device;
determining a second spatial position on the user interface in response to the input;
outputting an audio segment related to the second spatial position; and
manipulating a cursor to move from the first spatial position to the second spatial position on the user interface.

Abstract
A controlling device (e.g., a telephony device) can remotely control various tasks associated with a controlled device (e.g., a personal computer), including the navigation of user interfaces associated with applications or an operating system associated with the controlled device. A task can be controlled at the controlled device by mapping user input received at the controlling device to control commands suitable for execution at the controlled device.
