Abstract: A device for depolluting a heat engine exhaust gases includes an outer casing (23) defining a passage for the circulation of exhaust gases and, mounted in series in the passage, a catalytic purifying member (18) and a particulate filter (20). The casing (23) includes a transverse break (34) along its entire periphery, which break (34) divides the casing (23) into successive sections (38, 40), the device including a detachable device (36) connecting two successive sections along the break. The detachable connecting device (36) extends in a plane transverse to the gas circulation passage and passes through either the catalytic purifying member (18) or the particulate filter (20).

Abstract: A method and apparatus for conducting a multimedia telephone call. The apparatus carries out the method by establishing a telephone call between first and second customer premises equipment and generating, at the first customer premises equipment, a frequency shift keyed message containing a network resource locator. The FSK message is then transmitted from the first customer premises equipment to the second customer premises equipment during the telephone call and is received at the second customer premises equipment.

Abstract: A method and system for downloading a file to a subscriber telephone. The system includes a modified ring access server for producing a modified ring access message including a first network resource locator, a central office service unit for producing a modified ring access connection message including the first network resource locator, in response to the modified ring access message and for representing the modified ring access connection message by an FSK message, a central office switch operable to establish a connection to the subscriber telephone in response to the modified ring access connection message and for transmitting the FSK message to the subscriber telephone, a first network resource operable to provide the file to the subscriber telephone and a remotely configurable subscriber telephone operable to receive the FSK message and to download the file from the first network resource in response to the first uniform resource locator.
