75. For use with a system allowing a user to select a particular menu option from a plurality of menu options, the particular menu option associated with a particular region, the system including a display area, an apparatus for indicating dwell time comprising: (a) delimit means for at least partially delimiting the particular region with respect to the display area; (b) movement related signal receiving means for receiving a movement related signal responsive to user movement of the user, the user movement capable of indicating a user potential selection, the user movement capable of indicating: (1) a first starting location intersecting the particular region; (2) at a time at or after the time the first starting location occurs, a second starting location intersecting the particular region; (3) at a time after the time the second starting location occurs, a second intermediate location intersecting the particular region; (4) at a time after the time the second intermediate location occurs, a second ending location intersecting the particular region; and (5) at a time after the time the second ending location occurs, a first ending location intersecting the particular region; wherein a first period of intersection starts in response to the first starting location intersecting the particular region and ends in response to the first ending location intersecting the particular region; wherein a second period of intersection starts in response to the second starting location intersecting the particular region and ends in response to the second ending location intersecting the particular region; and wherein the duration of the second period of intersection increases between the time the second intermediate location occurs and the time the second ending location occurs; (c) selection means for selecting the particular menu option responsive to a first quantity equalling or exceeding a first predetermined quantity, the first quantity being a function of the duration of the first period of intersection; and (d) indicating means for providing a continuous or apparently continuous indication to the user prior to the selection device selecting the particular menu option, the indication responsive to a second quantity, the second quantity being a function of the increasing duration of the second period of intersection.
75. For use with a system allowing a user to select a particular menu option from a plurality of menu options, the particular menu option associated with a particular region, the system including a display area, an apparatus for indicating dwell time comprising: (a) delimit means for at least partially delimiting the particular region with respect to the display area; (b) movement related signal receiving means for receiving a movement related signal responsive to user movement of the user, the user movement capable of indicating a user potential selection, the user movement capable of indicating: (1) a first starting location intersecting the particular region; (2) at a time at or after the time the first starting location occurs, a second starting location intersecting the particular region; (3) at a time after the time the second starting location occurs, a second intermediate location intersecting the particular region; (4) at a time after the time the second intermediate location occurs, a second ending location intersecting the particular region; and (5) at a time after the time the second ending location occurs, a first ending location intersecting the particular region; wherein a first period of intersection starts in response to the first starting location intersecting the particular region and ends in response to the first ending location intersecting the particular region; wherein a second period of intersection starts in response to the second starting location intersecting the particular region and ends in response to the second ending location intersecting the particular region; and wherein the duration of the second period of intersection increases between the time the second intermediate location occurs and the time the second ending location occurs; (c) selection means for selecting the particular menu option responsive to a first quantity equalling or exceeding a first predetermined quantity, the first quantity being a function of the duration of the first period of intersection; and (d) indicating means for providing a continuous or apparently continuous indication to the user prior to the selection device selecting the particular menu option, the indication responsive to a second quantity, the second quantity being a function of the increasing duration of the second period of intersection. 76. The apparatus of claim 75 wherein the user movement is further capable of indicating: (6) at a time earlier than the time the first starting location occurs, a third starting location not intersecting the particular region; and wherein the indicating means is further operative to indicate the non-intersection of the third starting location and the particular region.
