Abstract: The embodiment herein discloses a system and method for establishing a communication session between a first client and a second client. The method includes receiving at a server a request from the first client to establish a communication with the second client, wherein the request comprises a contact item associated with said second client. Further, the method includes selecting at the server a preferred contact item from among a plurality of contact items associated with the second client, wherein the plurality of contact items are pre-stored at the server by the second client. Furthermore, the method includes attempting to initiate the communication session from the first client to the second client using the preferred contact item, wherein the preferred contact item remains confidential to the second user during the communication session.

Abstract: A wireless handset, system and method is described that enables a wireless handset having access to an international long distance service to provide another wireless handset with temporary or limited international long distance service. The wireless handset comprises a transceiver, a user interface, a service request, and a first service acknowledgement. The transceiver communicates with a wireless network managed by a wireless network service provider that controls the first service. The wireless network communicates with the wireless handset and a separate wireless handset that does not have access to the first service. The user interface enables the separate wireless handset to have temporary access to the first service. The service request communicated from the wireless handset requests the separate wireless handset have temporary access to the first service. The first service acknowledgement acknowledges the separate wireless handset has temporary access to the first service.

Abstract: A module dual mode device architecture and method of use is disclosed. The system architecture provides a distributed design of an IEEE 802.11i compliant supplicant module that provides security to data/voice packets sent over the wireless local area network (“WLAN”) radio interface from a dual mode device to an access point. The dual mode device establishes a connection with the access point and if the access point is security enabled, one or more session keys are generated. The session keys are used to provide security for communications over the radio interface between the dual mode device and the access point.
