Abstract

Hence, the invention envisages using an animated figure or object performing actions indicative of communications actions; for example, when dialling out, a cartoon character could be seen to be dialling a phone key pad or holding a telephone handset to his or her ear. The appearance and/or sound of the animated figure or object serves as a visual and/or oral indication of the communication function being performed.
