Abstract: A method and system is disclosed for an internet audio gateway for delivering data based audio content to devices that are incapable of receiving and processing such content in the data form or where the device is capable of receiving and processing such data but the network is not capable of delivering such content.

Abstract: A telephony system (100) includes a user device (110, 130) configured to enable a user of the telephony system (100) to place and receive telephone calls, and a service node (180, 185) configured to communicate with the user device (110, 130) and to thereby provide the user with an automated voice interface to the telephony system (100) upon the user's initiating access to the telephony system (100) via the user device (110, 130). The automated voice interface permits the user to verbally specify a desired objective corresponding to any one of a number of predefined objectives, the predefined objectives including directory assisted call placement and at least one form of information retrieval. Upon receiving the desired objective from the user, the service node (180, 185) acts to implement the desired objective.

Abstract: A system and method for facilitating information interexchange between a wireless telecommunications system having at least one telecommunications device therein and an information service provider. A Business-to-Business (B2B) engine is connected to the telecommunications system for receiving realtime information related to a telecommunications device within the telecommunications system. This realtime information is provided by the B2B engine to the information service provider, which consequently provides content data to the telecommunications device within the telecommunications system.

Abstract: A system, method, and apparatus for facilitating information interexchange between a telecommunications network serving a wireless communications device and an information service provider. A Business-to-Business (B2B) engine polls a telecommunications node associated with the telecommunications network serving the wireless communications device for real-time information. The telecommunications node responds by transmitting the requested real-time information to the B2B engine, which, in turn, provides the received real-time information to the information service provider. The information service provider, in turn, provides a service, tailored according to the real-time information received, to a subscriber associated with the wireless communications device.

Abstract: A method and system is provided to allow wireless systems to support many new voice and data services. An example of a service provided is the ability to switch a requested voice call into a packet data call and vise versa without the interaction of the user.

Abstract: The present disclosure provides a method and system (100) for obtaining the geographical position (latitude, longitude) of mobile station (MS) such as a CDMA 1x handheld mobile device (102) when it is in a packet mode session. The disclosed method and system allows the mobile station (102) to transparently switch from data to voice session tentatively, determines the geographical position thereof, and then switches back to the packet data mode and resume the data session.

Abstract: A method and system is disclosed for an internet audio gateway (114) for delivering data based audio content to devices that are incapable of receiving and processing such content in the data form or where the device is capable of receiving and processing such data but the network (110) is not capable of delivering such content.

Abstract: A method and system is provided for providing packet data service and circuit switch service during the same session to a mobile station (MS) whose capabilities do not allow such services to be provided thereon by the wireless network according to the its specifications. First, a voice service is provided between the MS and a first client through a switch device, the voice service conforming to a predetermined communication protocol. The MS is then notified about an incoming data service request from a second client to transfer a predetermined amount of data. The voice service is disconnected between the switch device and the MS if the user decides to activate the incoming data service. The voice service between the switch device and the first client is still maintained. The data service from the second client to the MS through the switch device is then established.

Abstract: A system, method, and apparatus for facilitating information interexchange between a telecommunications network serving a wireless communications device and an information service provider. A Business-to-Business (B2B) engine polls a telecommunications node associated with the telecommunications network serving the wireless communications device for real-time information. The telecommunications node responds by transmitting the requested real-time information to the B2B engine, which, in turn, provides the received real-time information to the information service provider. The information service provider, in turn, provides a service, tailored according to the real-time information received, to a subscriber associated with the wireless communications device.

Abstract: A system, method, and apparatus for facilitating information interexchange between a telecommunications network serving a wireless communications device and an information service provider. The telecommunications network includes at least one node that monitors realtime information associated with a telecommunications device within the telecommunications network. The node reports the realtime information associated with the telecommunications device to a Business-to-Business (B2B) engine, which, upon receiving the realtime information, forwards the realtime information to the information service provider. The information service provider, in turn, provides a service to a subscriber associated with the telecommunications device.

Abstract: A system and apparatus for facilitating the provision of realtime information to a Business-to-Business (B2B) engine by a telecommunications device within a telecommunications system. The telecommunications device, including a Subscriber Identification Module (SIM) card and an application unit therein, transmits the realtime information to the B2B engine. In a feature of the present invention, the application unit, being in communication with the SIM card, gathers and constructs a message containing the realtime information and transmits the realtime information to the B2B engine. Upon receipt of the realtime information, the B2B engine forwards the realtime information to an information service provider, which, in turn, provides content data/services to the telecommunications device.
