"Graphical information having a full extent not displayable at once on a low-resolution display of a hand-held electronic device is displayed over a limited extent thereof at a variable resolution less than or equal to the highest resolution inherently available within the graphical information. The varying portion of the full image to be displayed is selected by a user windowing signal actuated by a user input device such as a button, roller, joystick or by simply moving the hand-held electronic device in space and having that movement sensed by a sensor such as an accelerometer."

Surely most websites (for example) are not visible on most screens. Does low-resolution mean anything lower than a very expensive monitor? And even if we only look at portable devices, my phone and PDA both allow me to scroll around images. It's the obvious thing to do.
