Adjusting user settings on a handheld mobile communicating device based upon location

摘要

A handheld electronic device (300) that receives geo-location based signal data into a microprocessor (338) on board the handheld electronic device (300). The microprocessor (338) processes the signal ciata into location data representative of the present geographic location of the electronic handheld device (300). The microprocessor adjusts at least one user defined setting of the handheld electronic device (300) based on whether the location data indicates that the handheld eleetronic device (300) is within stored geographical boundaries.
