PRESENTATION OF A VIRTUAL KEYBOARD ON A MULTIPLE DISPLAY DEVICE
Methods and systems for presenting a user interface that includes a virtual keyboard are provided. More particularly, a virtual keyboard can be presented using one or more touch screens included in a multiple display device. The content of the virtual keyboard can be controlled in response to user input. Configurable portions of the virtual keyboard include selectable rows of virtual keys. In addition, whether selectable rows of virtual keys and/or a suggestion bar is displayed together with the standard character and control keys of the virtual keyboard can be determined in response to context or user input.
Mobile device off-screen gesture area
Methods and devices for receiving input and presenting a user interface with two screens and an off screen gesture area. The device may have an off screen gesture area that accepts user input outside the display area. The interface inputs received in the off screen gesture are may have special handling and cause different display changes. Further, the device, having two screens, may receive user interface inputs that cross the seam between the two displays. To provide a display that acts like a single display area, the device can predict motions may cross the seam and then interrelate separate inputs on separate screens. The interrelated inputs can cause display changes as if the inputs were received as a single user interaction.

Dual screen property detail display
A device includes two touch sensitive displays. Particular display device (e.g., balloons, pop-up windows, tooltips, etc.) can be displayed in the two touch sensitive displays. However, in some circumstances, presenting the display device may cause problems interfacing with or viewing data on the device. Thus, the device can determine if presenting the display device in a proposed location will cause difficulties for the user. If such difficulties are predicted, the device may move the display of the display device to the other touch sensitive display.

Hinge overtravel in a dual screen handheld communication device
A handheld communication device includes first and second screen assemblies, each including a screen having an active display area and housing having a rear surface, and a side surface extending between a periphery of the screen and the rear surface of the housing and a hinge connected to the first and second screen assemblies, whereby the hinge has a range of motion of more than 180 degrees.

Desktop application manager: card dragging of dual screen cards
Methods and devices for selecting a card from an application stack, wherein the card represents a corresponding application that a user would like to make active or bring focus to. The selecting includes one or more of a dragging and a tapping action, with these actions being triggers for transitioning the device to an optional drag state or tapped state, respectively. Transitioning through this state executes the activating of a corresponding application or other action on the device to facilitate window/application/desktop management. The selecting further allows a user to specify which a touch screen (or portion hereof) on which a particular application should be launched.

Driving assist device
A receiving unit receives a signal in a frequency band used in vehicle-to-vehicle communications or shared by vehicle-to-vehicle communications and road-to-vehicle communications. A demodulation unit demodulates the signal received with the receiving unit. A received signal strength detection unit detects a received signal strength of the signal received with the receiving unit. A demodulation state determination unit determines whether the signal, which is received with the receiving unit, is demodulated successfully. A notification processing unit notifies a driver of a possibility of existence of another vehicle in a condition where the demodulation state determination unit determines that the signal is not demodulated successfully and where the received signal strength is greater than or equal to a predetermined strength threshold, which is for determining whether signals sent from multiple other vehicles collide against each other.
