Abstract: A platform selection system and methods for wireless communication are provided. In an illustrative implementation, a wireless communication system maintains at least one wireless communications device operable to be in communication with one or more wireless communications platforms. Further, in the illustrative implementation, the wireless communications device can comprise a platform selection mechanism, and a platform selection instruction set that instructs the platform selection mechanism to select one or more of the wireless communications platforms for communication of data. In the illustrative operation, a platform selection engine operating on the wireless communications device monitors the execution of one or more selected criteria by the wireless communications device.
