A method of operating an electronic device comprises detecting access to private information stored in memory of the electronic device. The detecting is performed by a privacy management module downloadable to the electronic device as object code for execution on the electronic device and the access is performed by a client application program. The method further comprises tracking, using the privacy management module, the private information being accessed by the client application program, and reconfiguring the electronic device, using the privacy management module, to change the access to the private information by the client application program according to at least one privacy access policy stored in the electronic device.

Embodiments of techniques and systems for asynchronous offline bill review and payment are described. A bill payment management module, operated on a manageability engine on a mobile device, communicates with an online bill payment service. The bill payment management module may receive information about bill payments, including bills which are due, and presents selective information to a bill payment client application. A bill payer can then access the information on the mobile device through the bill payment client application and review or change the payment amounts. The review and the modifications may be performed when the mobile device is offline and the modifications may be stored until a later time when the mobile device can connect to a network. Once a network is available, the bill payment management module may send payment instructions to the online bill payment service. Other embodiments may be described and claimed.

Illustrative embodiments of systems and methods providing remote management over a wireless wide-area network (WWAN) using short messages are disclosed. In one embodiment, a computing device may include an in-band processor, a wireless transceiver configured for communications over a WWAN, and an out-of-band (OOB) processor capable of communicating over the WWAN using the wireless transceiver irrespective of an operational state of the in-band processor. The OOB processor may be configured to receive a short message via the wireless transceiver, determine whether the short message originated from a trusted remote computing device, and execute at least one operation indicated by the short message in response to determining that the short message originated from a trusted remote computing device.

A method, system, and device are disclosed. In one embodiment the method includes receiving a recipient phone number into an electronic gift phone module (EGPM). The EGPM also receives a set of gift data that includes a gift identification. The EGPM sends the recipient phone number and at least some gift data to an electronic gift processing server module (EGPSM). The EGPSM purchases a recipient gift by utilizing the gift identification. The EGPSM also sends notification of the recipient gift purchase to the recipient phone number.

Methods and systems with which a language translation may be obtained. An originator may request a translation by sending the passage to be translated to a server. The server may then broadcast the passage to prospective translators. In an embodiment, the translators may be connected to the originator and/or each other through a social network. Some or all of the prospective translators then return translations of the passage to the originator, via the server. The originator may then select the most desirable translation and inform the server. In an embodiment, the provision of the translation service may be part of an exchange or barter transaction. The server may apply a credit to the translator of the chosen translation. The translator may then use the credit in a subsequent trade or other transaction.
