Abstract: A typical system environment comprises a terminal device, a secure storage subsystem, and an interconnectivity component. The terminal device has a network connectivity subsystem enabled for data connectivity with a wireless communications network. The secure storage subsystem has a secure storage memory for securely storing contents and is enabled for local RF connectivity through a local RF communication subsystem. The secure storage subsystem is operable as a contactless smartcard in accordance with any contactless technology. The interconnectivity component is adapted to enable communication of the secure storage subsystem through the network connectivity subsystem with the network. The interconnectivity component is further configured to detect that messages received from the network are destined for the secure storage subsystem and is configured to supply that identified messages to the secure storage subsystem.

Abstract: Systems, devices and methods for providing dynamic tailored product information to mobile terminals as a result of reading short-range wireless communication tags, such as RFID tags. The invention is able to provide consumer related product information to consumer operated terminals and retailer related product information to retailer or employee operated terminals, without requiring separate transponders or unique reading devices. In addition, the invention is able to accomplish providing dynamic information in a highly efficient and user-friendly manner and without requiring additional memory at the tag level.
