Abstract: A context of the user of a mobile communication device determines what product or service is requested. By determining where the mobile communication device is, unique identifying information is used to identify a specific product or service. By using information regarding products limited to a defined area, a reduced product/service identifier can be used on products/services.

Abstract: A close proximity communication tag device that provides an indicator that a mobile communication device is substantially correctly oriented and placed with the respect to the tag device for communications.

Abstract: A method for transferring data between a first and a second computer system by way of a storage location in a third computer system. When needed for a transfer, the third computer system creates the storage location associated with the first computer system. Using the association, the first computer is able to access the storage location. The second computer system reads access information from a close proximity identification medium, where the information is associated with the storage location. Using the information, the second computer system is able to access the storage location. In a data transfer, one of the first and second computer system stores information in the storage location and the other of the first and second computer systems reads the data from the storage location. Once the data has been transferred from the storage location, the storage location is deleted.

Abstract: A method for applying the application of reading multiple NFC tags. By examining the context of the reading, the identification of the NFC tags, and a direction, pattern and/or sequence of reading, a corresponding action is determined and requested.

Abstract: A mobile communication device with security mechanisms is provided for enabling wireless personal information transfer with increased security. In another embodiment of the disclosure, a mobile communication device is used to confirm a transaction.

Abstract: A method for helping a consumer select an advantageous method of paying for a transaction. By providing a consumer with advantages and/or disadvantages of each payment method, the user can select a payment option while reviewing potential outcomes of the using different payment options.

Abstract: A system that enables a first computing system to transfer data to a second computer system using communication data read from the second computing system. The first system transfers the data which is temporarily held in a location of a third computing system associated with the communication data until the second device removes or is provided the data. Once the data is removed, the location in the third computing system where the data was temporarily held is emptied.

Abstract: A near field communications enabled mobile communication is used to provide or receive information.

Abstract: A system that enables a mobile communication device to transfer data to or from a computer system using communication data read from an NFC tag. The first device transfers the data and is temporarily held until the second device removes the data. Once the data is removed, the location where the data was temporarily held is emptied.

Abstract: A system and method is provided for electronically establishing communications between a third device and a second device whereby a first device communicates with the second device and then the third device to provide access for the third device information to the second device. The first device receives linking information from said second device and provides that information to the third device. The first device may also create a rule regarding the communication between the second and third device and provide that rule to the third device for incorporation.

Abstract: A method for wirelessly transferring files from a first electronic device to a second electronic device using an intermediary electronic device to separately wirelessly communicate with both electronic devices using close proximity communication.

Abstract: A mobile communication device with security mechanisms is provided for enabling wireless personal information transfer with increased security. In another embodiment of the disclosure, a mobile communication device is used to confirm a transaction.

Abstract: A system is provided that allows a user using her/his own mobile communication device to control content on a content publishing device. The mobile communication device uses information received from a data tag on the content publishing device to communicate with a content server providing the content to be published on a content publishing device and run a program on the content server allowing the mobile communication device to at least temporarily control the data published on the content publishing device.

Abstract: A mobile communication device with security mechanisms is provided for enabling wireless personal information transfer with increased security. In another embodiment of the invention, a mobile communication device is used to confirm a transaction.

Abstract: A near field communications enabled mobile communication with the appropriate program is used to provide or receive information related to service provided to or for a customer. Using the mobile communication device increases the customer's access to service and service personnel.
