Mobile Handset Recharge

Abstract

Methods and devices for connecting a mobile device with different data storage devices located either locally or remotely are provided. The device may apply one or more rules to create a hierarchical virtualization of the several data storage devices. The virtualization may then be provided to the user as a single, hierarchical file system. Further, a monitoring system may monitor the file system to determine if any new applications have been installed or if applications are currently being executed. If a connection is made to a secure network, the system may provide the information derived from the monitoring to the secure network. The secure network can then analyze the information to determine if any of the applications should be uninstalled from the device or should be stopped while the device is connected to the network.

What is claimed is: 
     
         1 . A method, comprising:
 placing a device in a holster; and   charging the device from a power source associated with the holster.   
     
     
         2 . The method of  claim 1 , further comprising determining a charge on the device. 
     
     
         3 . The method of  claim 2 , further comprising determining a power level for the power source associated with the holster. 
     
     
         4 . The method of  claim 3 , further comprising determining if there is more change in the power source. 
     
     
         5 . The method of  claim 4 , further comprising, if there is more change in the power source, charging the device from the power source. 
     
     
         6 . The method of  claim 5 , further comprising if there is not more change in the power source, waiting a period of time before determining the charge on the device and the power level for the power source associated with the holster. 
     
     
         7 . The method of  claim 6 , wherein the holster includes the power source. 
     
     
         8 . The method of  claim 7 , wherein the power source is a battery. 
     
     
         9 . The method of  claim 8 , wherein the power source and a battery of the device are connected by a connector on the device and a mating connector in the holster. 
     
     
         10 . The method of  claim 9 , wherein the connector on the device and the mating connector in the holster are universal serial bus (USB) connectors. 
     
     
         11 . A device, comprising:
 a first screen, the first screen including a first gesture capture region;   a second screen, wherein the second screen faces an opposite direction from the first screen when the device is closed, and wherein an image capture lens is associated with the second screen;   a memory;   a processor in communication with the memory, the first screen, and the second screen, the processor operable to:   determine that the device has been inserted into a holster; and   receive a charge for a battery of the device from a power source associated with the holster.   
     
     
         12 . The device of  claim 11 , the processor further operable to:
 determine a charge on the device; and   determine a power level for the power source associated with the holster.   
     
     
         13 . The device of  claim 12 , the processor further operable to:
 determine if there is more change in the power source;   if there is more change in the power source, charge the device from the power source; and   if there is not more change in the power source, wait a period of time before determining the charge on the device and the power level for the power source associated with the holster.   
     
     
         14 . The device of  claim 13 , wherein the power source is a battery. 
     
     
         15 . The device of  claim 14 , wherein the power source and a battery of the device are connected by a USB connector on the device and a mating USB connector in the holster. 
     
     
         16 . A computer readable medium having stored thereon computer-executable instructions, the computer executable instructions causing a processor of a device to execute a method for providing a remote device filter, the computer-executable instructions comprising:
 instructions to determine that the device has been inserted into a holster; and   instructions to receive a charge for a battery of the device from a power source associated with the holster.   
     
     
         17 . The computer readable medium of  claim 16 , the computer-executable instructions further comprising:
 instructions to determine a charge on the device; and   instructions to determine a power level for the power source associated with the holster.   
     
     
         18 . The computer readable medium of  claim 17 , the computer-executable instructions further comprising:
 instructions to determine if there is more change in the power source;   if there is more change in the power source, instructions to charge the device from the power source; and   if there is not more change in the power source, instructions to wait a period of time before determining the charge on the device and the power level for the power source associated with the holster.   
     
     
         19 . The computer readable medium of  claim 18 , wherein the power source is a battery. 
     
     
         20 . The computer readable medium of  claim 19 , wherein the power source and a battery of the device are connected by a USB connector on the device and a mating USB connector in the holster.
