Abstract: Embodiments may include receiving various media files, such as pictures, videos, and music, for users within a telecommunication environment. The users may send the media files through various communication devices including cellular phones and computing devices. Embodiments may allow access to the received media files to the users through the communication devices. Access may be limited to the media files by membership within a group or other access levels associated with a particular media file or a corresponding media folder. Embodiments may also include receiving a media file in a first format from a transferring communication device, and converting and sending the media file in a second format that is suitable for a requesting communication device.

Abstract: A graphical mapping system configured to display mapping information on a handheld device is disclosed. The system includes an image map database configured to store map data for a plurality of geographic areas, which is useful for generating graphical maps. The system further includes a vector map database configured to store vector map data, which is useful for generating vector “overlays” that correspond to the graphical maps. In response to a mapping request from a handheld device, a set of image mapping data and a corresponding set of vector mapping data, both associated with a given geographic location, are retrievable.
