Abstract: A service provider places a server at a data center and a service user searches a website, connecting a terminal to the Internet. When the service user specifies a URL in a website server via a terminal accessable to the Internet, data of content stored onto the server is read out and transmitted to the terminal of the service user. The server stores customer information received from the service user and performs a customer registration as a merchandise purchaser. After completing a customer registration, information advising a membership registration different from a customer registration is transmitted to the service user.

Abstract: This invention provides an in-vehicle computer system that makes it easy to handle an image data taken with a digital camera in a vehicle and the like. For example, a print order of an image data can be placed from a vehicle and a print can be picked up at a vehicle stopover location when the vehicle stops over. The vehicle is navigated toward a location where to be able to pick up the print. In a case of a rental vehicle, a print can be picked up when returning the vehicle. Furthermore, handling an image data in a vehicle is configured to have no effect on a safety drive. For example, when an in-vehicle computer communicates with an external computer, data necessary to drive a vehicle is delivered in preference to an image data. An operation to connect a digital camera and an in-vehicle computer is made easy. But, an operation of handling an image data at the wheel is configured to be impossible.

Abstract: A print system receives an image file and a print order file from a customer, the image file having an image data area and an order data area. The print system copies information of the received print order file into the order data area of the received image file. The print system produces a print of the image data in the image file according to the information in the order data area of the image file. The print system has a printer capable of producing a print of a predetermined image data provided by a third party as well as that of the image data of the customer. The print system delivers to the customer the print ordered by the customer as well as the print of the predetermined image data. The print system selects a group of orders among all the orders in accordance with the destination of delivery for controlling the printer to give priority to the group of orders in producing the prints. The print system forbids the printer to produce the print of the image data of the same customer until a predetermined time. The order from the customer is made through a handy phone capable of controlling a digital camera through a wireless system.
