ABSTRACT:
An audio “desktop” user-interface is provided in which services are represented by audio labels presented in an audio field through respective synthesized sound sources. A desired service is selected by identifying it through its sound source or audio label. A user can modify the layout of service-representing sound sources and preferably add and remove services.
