Abstract: A method of optimizing data transmissions to a wireless device is provided. In particular, a client application may discover the data rate of the wireless connection, and provide that information to a media server. The media server may then provide content to the application over the wireless connection, where the level of media detail provided is best suited for transmission at the available data rate.

Abstract: A wireless handset may connect to a media server in order to receive streaming media content. The wireless handset may send the media server one or more indications of the wireless handset's presentation capabilities. In response, the media server may send the wireless handset a list of media content and transmission modes, and the list of media content and transmission modes may be tailored, at least in part, based on the presentation capabilities of the wireless handset. A user of the wireless handset may then select from the list of media content, and the media server may stream the media content to the wireless handset using the selected transmission mode.

Abstract: A method and system for playing a media sample representing a full media selection on a wireless handset and, in turn, requesting the full media selection to be sent to a client station other than the wireless handset. The method and system provides for a user of a wireless handset to receive one or more media samples from a media content provider, such as a media server. The user can then request one or more full media selections from the media server, and the media server can, in turn, e-mail to the user a hyperlink for each full media selection selected by the user. The user can then invoke the hyperlink to access a full media selection at a client station other than the wireless handset.
