<p>A portable electronic device such as a mobile telephone is used with a global satellite navigation system (e.g., GPS) to set up a number of respective profiles that have one or more respective operational settings for the mobile phone, each coordinated with a respective area, such as a home area, an office area, an undefined area, etc. The mobile phone is used with the global satellite system to define a virtual room or area; and during subsequent use of the mobile phone, when it is in a given virtual room or area or is in an undefined area, the mobile phone automatically adjusts to the profile and setting(s) that are coordinated with such area. A virtual room can be defined by positioning the mobile phone at three or more different locations and using a GPS determining virtual boundaries based on signals representing such locations.</p> |
