METHOD AND APPARATUS TO FACILITATE SELECTING A PARTICULAR RENDERING METHOD

摘要

These various embodiments are suitable for use with a personally portable apparatus (200) that is configured and arranged to render selected content into a perceivable form for an end user of that personally portable apparatus (200). These teachings generally provide for gathering (101) information regarding this end user (wherein this information does not simply comprise specific instructions to the personally portable apparatus (200) via some corresponding user interface). These teachings then provide for inferring (104) from this information a desired end-user rendering modality (that is, as desired by that end user) for the selected content and then automatically selecting (105), as a function (at least in part) of that desired end-user rendering modality, a particular rendering method from amongst a plurality of differing candidate rendering methodologies to employ when rendering the selected content perceivable to the end user at the personally portable apparatus (200).
