First Claim
Patent Images
1. A wireless handset, comprising:
- a wireless network interface;
a user interface; and
a processor communicatively coupled with the wireless network interface and the user interface, wherein under control of the processor objects from a web page received on the wireless network interface are rendered on a display of the user interface as selectable panels in perspective views, wherein a selection pointer movable by input on an input device of the user interface is rendered on the display, and in response to positioning the selection pointer on one of the selectable panels a first angle of rotation of the selectable panel about a vertical axis is reduced to a second angle of rotation greater than zero degrees, whereby screen size of the selectable panel is increased.

Abstract
A wireless handset and a method and system for a wireless handset that better enable a user of the wireless handset to identify, select and view objects on a web page. Objects from a web page are rendered on a wireless handset display as selectable panels in perspective views. The rendering of objects from a web page as selectable panels in perspective views allows a web page designed for rendering on a display of a conventional Internet capable device to fit within a much smaller display of a wireless handset while maintaining the relative position, visibility, selectability and natural appearance of the objects.

8. A wireless handset, comprising:
-
a wireless network interface; a user interface; and a processor communicatively coupled with the wireless network interface and the user interface, wherein under control of the processor objects from a web page received on the wireless network interface are rendered on a display of the user interface as selectable panels in perspective views, wherein a selection pointer movable by input on an input device of the user interface is rendered on the display, and in response to positioning the selection pointer on a first one of the selectable panels a first angle of rotation of at least a second one of the selectable panels about a vertical axis is increased to a second angle of rotation less than ninety degrees, whereby screen size of the at least one second selectable panel is reduced.

9. A method for rendering web pages on a wireless handset, comprising the steps of:
-
receiving on the wireless handset a web page; rendering on a display of the wireless handset objects from the web page as selectable panels in perspective views; positioning a selection pointer on one of the selectable panels; and
in response to the positioning step,reducing a first angle of rotation of the selectable panel about a vertical axis to a second angle of rotation greater than zero degrees, whereby screen size of the selectable panel is increased. - View Dependent Claims (10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15)

16. A method for rendering web pages on a wireless handset, comprising the steps of:
-
receiving on the wireless handset a web page; rendering on a display of the wireless handset objects from the web page as selectable panels in perspective views; positioning a selection pointer on a first one of the selectable panels; and
in response to the positioning step,increasing a first angle of rotation of at least a second one of the selectable panels about a vertical axis to a second angle of rotation less than ninety degrees, whereby screen size of the at least one second selectable panel is reduced.

17. A wireless handset, comprising:
-
a wireless network interface; a user interface; and a processor communicatively coupled with the wireless network interface and the user interface, wherein under control of the processor objects from a web page received on the wireless network interface are rendered on a display of the user interface as selectable panels in perspective views, wherein one of the selectable panels is hovered over in response to input on an input device of the user interface, and in response to being hovered over a first angle of rotation of the selectable panel about a vertical axis is reduced to a second angle of rotation greater than zero degrees, whereby screen size of the selectable panel is increased.

18. A wireless handset, comprising:
-
a wireless network interface; a user interface; and a processor communicatively coupled with the wireless network interface and the user interface, wherein under control of the processor objects from a web page received on the wireless network interface are rendered on a display of the user interface as selectable panels in perspective views, wherein a first one of the selectable panels is hovered over in response to input on an input device of the user interface, and in response to the first selectable panel being hovered over a first angle of rotation of at least a second one of the selectable panels about a vertical axis is increased to a second angle of rotation less than ninety degrees, whereby screen size of the at least one second selectable panel is reduced.
