摘要： A multimedia distribution kiosk can communicate with a remote user to receive multimedia requests and can communicate with a multimedia content provider to obtain requested multimedia content. The kiosk can cache received multimedia content and provide the content as desired. The kiosk can also be used to upload multimedia content to a server. For example, an occupant of an automobile may access a system of kiosks to determine the nearest kiosk and request download of content prior to arrival at that kiosk.

摘要： The present invention is a system that allows customers to use a mobile device or personal terminal to obtain complete product or service information so as to complete an impartial list. The system aides in the identification of a store or place of interest where the customer may obtain the list items. The system further provides the customer with directions to the store or place of interest, and to the needed item or service within the store, thereby increasing the customers efficiency. The list and directions may be dynamically changed based upon the customers changing needs and changing location.

摘要： Picture Caller Line Identification (PCLI) systems and methods are provided for enabling present and future mobile telephony systems to provide PCLI information to a called party. A PCLI system that interacts with a mobile telephony system includes a storage unit for storing PCLI information and a processor that is programmed to detect a request for a call from a caller to a called party, to retrieve PCLI information for the caller from the storage unit, and to forward the PCLI information to the called party. The processor may be further programmed to suspend completion of the call until verification of receipt of the call by the called handset to ensure that the PCLI information is available at the called party's handset prior to completion of the call. Mobile handsets that may be used with the PCLI system discussed above are also provided. A mobile handset for operating with a PCLI system includes an input to receive an image associated with a caller and to receive notification of the call from the caller, and a display that displays the images. The handset also includes a processor that is programmed to receive the image, to receive the notification of the call from the caller, and to respond to the caller. The processor may be programmed to send the image to the display after receiving the notification of the call from the caller.

摘要翻译： 提供图像来电线路识别（PCLI）系统和方法，用于使当前和未来的移动电话系统能够向被叫方提供PCLI信息。 与移动电话系统交互的PCLI系统包括用于存储PCLI信息的存储单元和被编程为检测来自主叫方到被叫方的呼叫的请求的处理器，从存储单元检索呼叫者的PCLI信息 并将PCLI信息转发给被叫方。 处理器可以进一步被编程为暂停呼叫的完成，直到被叫手机接收到呼叫的确认，以确保PCLI信息在呼叫完成之前在被叫方的手机可用。 还提供了可能与上述PCLI系统一起使用的移动手机。 用于与PCLI系统一起操作的移动手机包括用于接收与呼叫者相关联的图像并接收来自呼叫者的呼叫通知的输入端以及显示图像的显示器。 手机还包括被编程为接收图像的处理器，以接收来自呼叫者的呼叫的通知，并响应呼叫者。 处理器可以被编程为在从呼叫者接收到呼叫的通知之后将图像发送到显示器。
