Abstract: The invention is to enable a secure sharing of an internet resource with a partner in conversation by the IP telephone, in simple and inexpensive manner and not requiring cumbersome operations, by a communication terminal only, not relying on another equipment. Internet resource sharing means is provided for a shared utilization of a same internet resource (WEB data, FTP file etc.) among the communication terminals (200, 220) in conversation. The sharing of the internet resource is executed by transmitting/receiving URL information of the desired internet resource by FTP or by an E-mail protocol, or by transmitting/receiving the internet resource itself by an HTTP proxy procedure with the partner communication terminal, in which either of the communication terminal and the partner terminal functions as an HTTP proxy server and the other functions as an HTTP client.

Abstract: A data communication apparatus and an electronic mail data producing method are provided that are capable of allowing a file name to be easily added to a file attached to an electronic mail and also allowing a file name to be added to a file attached to an electronic mail, which is commensurate with the contents of the date to be transmitted. A CPU of the data communication apparatus combines a page number allotted to each of the images converted into files with the subject of the electronic mail that is inputted, to generate an attached image file name, and transmits the electronic mail with the image data in the form of files attached thereto together with the generated attached image file names. Therefore, it is not necessary to input the name of an image file attached to an electronic mail, which facilitates the operation of transmitting an electronic mail and enables giving a file name that enables the receiver of the electronic mail to easily recognize the contents of the attached image file.

Abstract: A communication terminal includes a resource transfer button for transferring URL information of an Internet resource to another party with which IP phone conversation has been established so as to allow the browser of the communication terminal of the other party to browse the Internet resource. The URL information of an Internet resource is registered to a one-touch key. Registering the selection information of the communication terminal of the other party and the URL information of an Internet resource enables the URL information thereof to be transferred to the communication terminal of the other party with which the phone conversation has been established immediately following calling the other party by pressing the one-touch key, so as to allow the browser of the communication terminal of the other party to browse the Internet resource. Thus, both the calling and receiving parties can browse the same Internet resource with the respective terminals.

Abstract: A communication apparatus which performs IP communication and analog communication through an ADSL gateway obtains an IP address of a party station from an SIP proxy and transmits/receives communication data with the party station on an IP network based on a file transmission/reception protocol such as FTP or HTTP when a party station's telephone number corresponds to a VoIP network. The apparatus performs analog facsimile communication on a line switching network when the party station does not correspond to the VoIP network. Moreover, the apparatus performs the analog facsimile communication on the VoIP network or the line switching network when the party station corresponds to the VoIP network but does not have any digital communication means. Thus, in the apparatus corresponding to analog and network communication paths, it is possible to select an appropriate communication path and achieve high-speed and high-reliability communication without any complicated operation.

Abstract: A communication terminal includes a base and a wireless handset connected to the base with a wireless connection. In the communication terminal, an audio communication channel of interactive audiovisual communication or audio communication can be transferred between the base and the wireless handset. The communication terminal performs interactive audiovisual communication or audio communication by IP telephony over an IP network. The base includes a base handset serving as an audio inputting and outputting unit and a camera serving as an image inputting and outputting unit, where both units are used for interactive audiovisual communication. The wireless handset includes a microphone, a speaker, and a receiver, where these components constituting an audio inputting and outputting unit.

Abstract: A communication apparatus is provided which makes it possible to print out all data larger than a display screen in one operation. In addition, the communication apparatus reduces time required for print processing and eases a user's stress due to print waiting by diverting the data for display as the data for recording. In addition, the communication apparatus analyzes received data, generates data for display indicating a screen to be displayed on a display unit and generates data for printing from data for display corresponding to a plurality of screens according to an instruction of printing.

Abstract: Messages from a remote telephone set are automatically recorded as automatically recorded data by an answering function. An e-mail transmission/reception unit stores e-mail received from an e-mail server in a received mail file. An automatically recorded message and voice data obtained by converting the text data of received e-mail into voice data by a voice synthesizing unit are transferred to a transfer destination on the basis of information indicating whether or not to transfer the e-mail and automatically recorded message.

Abstract: A communication terminal device which is connected to a mail server for acquiring E-mail, and has storage unit for storing the acquired E-mail data, the terminal device detects a mail-status notification signal transmitted from the mail server, determines whether or not there is incoming mail by analyzing the mail-status notification signal, refers to available capacity of the storage unit if it is determined that there is incoming mail, thereby determines whether or not E-mail data relating to the incoming mail can be stored, and exercising control in such a manner that acquisition of E-mail is performed if it has determined that the E-mail data relating to the incoming mail can be stored, and in such a manner that no acquisition of E-mail is performed if it has determined that the E-mail data relating to the incoming mail cannot be stored.

Abstract: To easily change the specifications of a subsidiary device without changing a system unit, an information processing apparatus includes a slave control unit for controlling a slave device and a system control unit for receiving email from an external line and storing and managing the email. In transmitting email information to the slave device, email information stored in the system control unit is temporarily stored in the slave control unit and then transmitted to the slave device, improving information transmission efficiency.
