Patent

CA 2532358

An improved handheld electronic device and an associated method are provided in which enhanced information regarding an "availability" of a user of a handheld electronic device is provided to another electronic device in a messaging environment. Such availability data provides step-wise indications of the relative availabilities of one or more users of electronic devices in a messaging environment. The step-wise indications can, for instance, range from an availability level of "currently active" to several levels of nonavailability. The device and method can be incorporated into an existing messaging environment.

L'invention concerne un dispositif électronique portatif amélioré et un procédé associé dans lesquels une information améliorée en ce qui concerne la "disponibilité" de l'utilisateur d'un dispositif électronique portatif est communiquée à un autre dispositif électronique dans un environnement de messagerie. De telles données de disponibilité donnent des indications progressives sur les disponibilités relatives d'au moins un utilisateur de dispositifs électroniques dans un environnement de messagerie. Les indications progressives permettent, par exemple, de ranger un niveau de disponibilité de "couramment actif" à plusieurs niveaux de non disponibilité. Ce dispositif et ce procédé peuvent être incorporés dans un environnement de messagerie existant.
