Abstract: Featured is a method and system for transferring data to a device. A data set is prepared for a remote device. The data set is divided into subsets based on one or more criteria. The different data subsets are wirelessly delivered from a server to different smart devices based on rules. Each smart device, when proximate the remote device, automatically wirelessly transmits its data subset to the remote device. The remote device then assembles the data subsets.
