Abstract:
An online sales/automatic rebate and coupon redemption system provides online customers automatic retrieval and redemption of all applicable rebates and coupons during purchase. Purchase orders from customers are selectively fulfilled and products are shipped to the customers either by the system for online sales with automatic rebate and coupon redemption or by other merchant or manufacturer environments. The system purchases from merchants using applicable coupons and rebates and then sells the products to the customers, passing the savings to them. The system makes it possible to automatically retrieve coupons and rebates for items in a shopping cart during the activity of an online purchase at an electronic mall or an online merchant site.

Abstract:
In a mobile communication device, a method for determining the existence of one or more pending messages, the method including exiting from a power-save mode of operation, in which the mobile communication device does not receive messages; selecting for communication, one of a plurality of communication paths, the selecting based on at least one of a plurality of conditions associated with the one of the plurality of communication paths; and attempting to communicate over the one of the plurality of communication paths to check for pending messages. The plurality of communication paths includes at least a first and a second communication path. The attempting to communicate over the one of the plurality of communication paths includes attempting to communicate over the first communication path to check for the pending messages by communicating with a message server over the first communication path.
Abstract:
A first plurality of characteristics are received from a first client device relating to transmissions received by the first client device from both an access point and a second client device. A second plurality of characteristics are received from the second client device relating to transmissions received by the second client device from both the access point and the first client device. The first plurality of characteristics and the second plurality of characteristics are both assessed. Based on the assessment, a least one of a plurality of customized power levels is selected for transmissions by the access point to the first client device and the second client device.
Abstract:
A network and methods for supporting concurrent consumption of broadcast and user captured media content are disclosed. Various embodiments of the present invention permit a first user to concurrently consume media content from a server and a second user of a media exchange network. The first user may also concurrently provide media content to the second user of the media exchange network. The media content shared by users may be stored at a user's location, stored on a server at a third location in the media exchange network, or may originate from a media peripheral device, and may be audio, a still image, video, or data.
Abstract:
A system and method is provided for dynamic allocation of Multiple Input Multiple Output (MIMO) communication resources during a single communication. Various aspects of the present invention may comprise communicating information using a first set of MIMO communication resources. While communicating the information, the system can determine, based on a monitored energy supply, to continue communicating the information using a second set of MIMO communication resources different from the first set. The communication continues using the second set of MIMO communication resources. Another aspect of the present invention may comprise determining to continue communicating the information using a second set of MIMO communication resources based on availability of communication resources of a second MIMO communication system receiving the communicated information.
