摘要： Media is exchanged by the interaction between devices of an environment. A first device of a first user discovers existing devices within a proximity-based communication range of the first device that have media capable of being shared. As the first user encounters different people and places that have other devices, those other devices are discovered by the first device of the user. A list of available media is provided from the discovered devices to the first device where it is then displayed. The first user may then select a media item from the list to obtain it via sharing or purchase, have it bookmarked for future retrieval from the current source, or request playback of the media item such as by streaming or broadcast. The first device may provide information about capabilities and/or user profile information to the other devices to filter which media items are presented to the first device.

摘要： Providing a user of a mobile communication device with direction information is disclosed. A router is adapted to receive a direction information query message for direction information for a destination telephone number from a mobile communication device. The router determines whether the destination telephone number is associated with a first telephony system or is associated with a second telephony network. A server and a gateway are connected to the router. The server is in communication with a database having directory information associated with the first telephony network stored therein. The gateway is in communication with the second telephony network. If the destination telephone number is associated with the first telephony network, the router provides the server with the direction information query message. If the destination telephone number is associated with the second telephony network, the router provides the gateway with the direction information query message. The mobile communication device includes logic embodied in a computer readable medium for generating a direction information query message, the direction information query message including a reference location indicator, and logic embodied in a computer readable medium for displaying direction information related to a destination telephone number.
