AS A RESULT OF REEXAMINATION, IT HAS BEEN DETERMINED THAT:
Claims 1, 5-7, 10, 16, 20-22, and 25 are cancelled.
New claims 26-36 are added and determined to be patentable.
Claims 2-4, 8-9, 11-15, 17-19 and 23-24 were not reexamined.
[ 26. An apparatus, comprising:
at least one processing component configured to process data indicative of a current posture of said apparatus for enabling a posture related presentation of information to a user via an output component, said processing including selecting one of at least two different modes of presentation depending on said current posture of said apparatus;
a 3D accelerometer, wherein said at least one processing component is configured to receive first data indicative of the current posture of said apparatus from the 3D accelerometer;
a 3D magnetometer, wherein said at least one processing component is configured to receive second data indicative of the current posture of said apparatus from the 3D magnetometer; and
a first filter filtering the first data indicative of the current posture of said apparatus from the 3D accelerometer with a first integration period.]
[ 27. The apparatus according to claim 26, wherein the at least one processing component uses the first filtered data to select one of the at least two different modes of presentation.]
[ 28. The apparatus according to claim 27, further comprising:
a second filter filtering the second data indicative of the current posture of said apparatus from the 3D magnetometer with a second integration period.]
[ 29. The apparatus according to claim 28, wherein the at least one processing component uses the first filtered data and the second filtered data to select one of the at least two different modes of presentation.]
[ 30. The apparatus according to claim 29, further comprising:
a display, and wherein the at least one processing component displays the information on the display according to the selected one of the at least two different modes of presentation.]
[ 31. The apparatus according to claim 30, wherein the at least two different modes of presentation are a horizontal mode and a vertical mode.]
[ 32. The apparatus according to claim 26, wherein the first integration period is from one to three seconds.]
[ 33. The apparatus according to claim 28, wherein the second integration period is from five to ten seconds.]
[ 34. The apparatus according to claim 28, wherein the first integration period is shorter than the second integration period.]
[ 35. The apparatus according to claim 26, wherein the 3D accelerometer is a 3D linear accelerometer.]
[ 36. The apparatus according to claim 26, wherein the 3D accelerometer is a 3D angular accelerometer.]
