Abstract: The present invention discloses a system and a method for providing information to a communication device in response to a request for such service received from the communication device. The request may be in the form of a digits request trigger or short message service (SMS) origination message that is initiate from a wireless telephone. The digits request trigger and SMS origination request may be initiated when a user selects a menu option or it may be initiated using a microbrowser. The digits request trigger or SMS origination message is sent from the communication device to a wireless web information services gateway. The gateway retrieves the requested information from one or more sources. The gateway then forwards the retrieved information to the user via an SMS message or via a microbrowser message. The information may be formatted according to a preselected configuration that is stored in a user service information profile.

Abstract: A network based notification system to provide notifications to users of multiple devices comprises a registration server and a notification server. The registration server maintains a profile of each user, which contains information used to identify the various devices of each user. In response to receiving a notification message for a user from a remote network site, the registration server accesses the user profile and other information to determine at which of the devices of the user the user is present, if any. The notification server then selects one of the devices at which the user is present and sends a notification message for the user at the selected device. If notification is unsuccessful, notification is attempted at another one of the user's devices, if possible.
