The present invention relates generally to methods usable with handheld devices (e.g., music players or cell phones) and cell phones. One claim recites a cell phone including: an input or interface to receive first content corresponding to audio or video; a media player to render audio or video; an analyzer to derive a plural-bit identifier from portions of the first content representing audio elements of the audio or video picture elements of the video; data indicating at least some capabilities of the media player; and a controller to control: i) communicating the plural-bit identifier and the data indicating the at least some capabilities of the media player to a network resource to obtain enhanced content therefrom, the enhanced content being enhanced relative to the first content, and the enhanced content being associated with the plural-bit identifier and the media player; and ii) obtaining the enhanced content from the network resource. Of course, other claims and combinations are provided as well.

The method of claim 1 wherein the content corresponding to the object comprises optical scan data, and the object comprises a physical object. 6. A cell phone comprising: an input or interface to receive first content coffesponding to an object; a media player to render content; a decoder to analyze the first content for steganographic encoding, wherein the steganographic encoding comprises a plural-bit payload, the plural-bit payload is obtained by said decoder; data indicating at least some of the media player's capabilities; a controller to control: i) communication of the plural-bit payload and the data indicating at least some of the media player's capabilities to a network resource; ii) reception, from the network resource, of enhanced content, the enhanced content being enhanced relative to the first content, the enhanced content being associated with the plural-bit payload and the media player. 7. The cell phone of claim 6 wherein the steganographic encoding comprises digital watermarking that alters content to convey the plural-bit payload, and the decoder comprises a digital watermark decoder. 8. The cell phone of claim 6 wherein the object comprises audio or video. 9. The cell phone of claim 6, further comprising processing circuitry, wherein the controller comprises at least software executed by said processing circuitry. 10. The cell phone of claim 6 wherein the controller comprises at least a microprocessor or dedicated processing circuitry. 11. A cell phone comprising: an input or interface to receive first content conesponding to audio or video; a media player to render audio or video; an analyzer to derive a plural-bit identifier from portions of the first content representing audio elements of the audio or video picture elements of the video; data indicating at least some capabilities of the media player; and a controller to control: i) communicating the plural-bit identifier and the data indicating the at least some capabilities of the media player to a network resource to obtain enhanced content therefrom, the enhanced content being enhanced relative to the first content, and the enhanced content being associated with the plural-bit identifier and the media player; and ii) obtaining the enhanced content from the network resource. 12. The cell phone of claim 11, further comprising processing circuitry, wherein said controller comprises at least software executed by said processing circuitry. 13. The cell phone of claim 11 wherein the controller comprises at least a microprocessor or dedicated processing circuitry. 14. The cell phone of claim 11 wherein the plural-bit identifier is steganographically hidden in portions of the first content representing audio portions of the audio or video picture elements of the video. 15. The cell phone of claim 14 wherein the analyzer comprises a steganographic data decoder. 16. The cell phone of claim 15 wherein the plural-bit identifier is steganographically hidden in the portions of the first content with digital watermarking that alters content to convey the plural-bit identifier. 17. The cell phone of claim 11 wherein the input or interface comprises a microphone. 18. The cell phone of claim 6 wherein the input or interface comprises a microphone. 19. A method comprising: receiving first content corresponding to audio or video on a haudheld device, wherein said handheld device comprises a media player; using one or more processors, analyzing the first content to derive identifying data from portions of the first content representing audio elements of the audio or representing video picture elements of the video: obtaining infonnation associated with a class or capabilities of the handhed device; communicating the identifier identifying data and the information associated with the class or the capabilities of the handheld device to a network resource; obtaining, from a network resource additional content, enhanced or improved relative to the first content, that is associated with the plural bit identifying data and the information. 20.
