Abstract

The system and method herein provide selecting and presenting user customizable preferences. Techniques involved can include having a custom entry in a list box such that the list view item updates its displayed item based upon the configuration settings. As such, the user can see what has been set as a custom preference without having to go into secondary dialog boxes. The techniques can be particularly advantageous with wireless devices that need to minimize the number of fields that must be viewed to get information.
