  • Publication number: 20060293071
    Abstract: The invention relates to methods of accessing a document linked to a message sent to a mobile terminal via an operator. This is a document access method comprising: a step of an operator sending a mobile first terminal a message linked to a document; a step of a user consulting the message and of displaying on the screen of the mobile first terminal a parameter representing the size of the document; a step of the user employing the man-machine interface of the mobile first terminal to command the operator to associate an address with the document; a step of the user entering the address associated with the document via a man-machine interface of a second terminal having a greater capacity than the mobile first terminal; a step of the operator sending the document to the second terminal; and a step of displaying the document on the screen of the second terminal.
