  • Publication number: 20080126511
    Abstract: A system for handing off an application in a mobile telecommunications environment is provided. The system comprises a first telecommunications network serving a first location, a second telecommunications network serving a second location, and a handset. The first network comprises a first server operable to execute the application and an application state data operable to retain data related to a state of the application. The second network comprises a second server operable to receive the application state data and execute the application using the application state data such that execution continues substantially uninterrupted. The handset can communicate wirelessly with the first network while in the first location and can communicate wirelessly with the second network while in the second location. A movement of the handset from the first location to the second location promotes the transmission of the application state data from the first network to the second network.

  • Publication number: 20080026746
    Abstract: A system for executing an application is provided. The system comprises a mobile device, a module, and a server. The module can store the application and is operable to be coupled to communicate to and decoupled from the mobile device. The server is operable to store the application and wirelessly communicate with the mobile device via a network and is operable to provide the mobile device access to the application on the server such that the mobile device is operable to access the application via the module when the module is coupled to communicate with the mobile device. When the mobile device is decoupled from the module, the mobile device is operable to access the application via the server.
