ABSTRACT:
A communication device (50) includes a display (68) for presenting information to the user. When selecting between different options/features (402-416) the currently displayed options/features are displayed in user selectable fields (422-426) which are located along an arc. When a device user picks an option/feature which is currently not being displayed (408-416), the graphical user interface commences an animation process (620) which makes the user selectable fields (422-426) seem to be part of a wheel (420) which is spinning. Once the main process has loaded up the required off-screen options/features the animation process stops.
