    摘要: A method (10) of payment of communication services includes determining (14) if a request (12) for services is an essential service or non-essential service, determining (19) if a device and/or user is authorized for non-essential service, and determining (20) if there are sufficient pre-pay funds for the non-essential service. The method can further include rejecting (26) the request for non-essential service if the device and/or user is unauthorized or if insufficient pre-pay funds exist. The method grants (16) the request if the request is for essential service (such as voice services). The essential service or subscription or post-pay service can be added (18) to a recurring bill. If the device and/or user is authorized and sufficient prepay funds exist, then the method grants (22) the request for the non-essential service. In response or in conjunction with granting, the method can deduct (24) funds from prepay funds upon granting the request.

    摘要: The invention concerns a method (300, 500) and system (100) for managing an event. The method can include the steps of assigning (312) a number of participants (410) to participate in an event, selectively monitoring (314) the participants beginning at a predetermined time and based on the monitoring step, selectively assigning (318) an intent indicator (414) to the participants. The intent indicator can provide an indication as to whether a participant intends to attend the event. The monitoring step can include monitoring (316) target units (112) of the participants. The method can also include the step of creating (512) an attendance profile (610) for the participants based on a history of a participant's participation in previous events. The attendance profile can provide an indication as to the likelihood that a participant will attend the event and will attend the event on time.

    摘要: The invention concerns a method (200) and system (100) for managing meetings using group calling. The method can include the steps of detecting (212) one or more meeting participants for a meeting, comparing (214) the detected meeting participants with a listing of scheduled meeting participants and generating (216) a dynamic group calling list that at least includes those scheduled meeting participants who have not been detected. As an example, the dynamic group calling list can be generated on a mobile communications device (122) of one of the detected meeting participants. The method can also include the step of simultaneously contacting (218) from the mobile communications device the scheduled meeting participants on the dynamic group calling list who have not been detected.

    摘要: A wireless personal communications device (106) that has a wireless communications circuit (704) that communicates over a cellular communications system and a user input sensor (306, 404, 410, 412, 502) that detects an input from a user (104, 108). An included audio-visual effect generator (210) generates an audio-visual effect based upon input detected by the user input sensor (306, 404, 410, 412, 502). A collaborative audio-visual effect creation system (110) accepts audio visual effects from multiple sources (106), uses a multiple user wireless data communications system to wirelessly communicate data among multiple wireless personal communications devices (106), accepts rating information from the wireless personal communications devices (106) and produces an audio-visual output that is derived received audio-visual effects based upon the rating information.

    摘要: A system (10) and a method (40) of initiating security measures based on mobile traffic patterns can include monitoring (42) identification information (such as Medium Access Control (MAC) Identification information) for a given network access point (11-18) for mobile wireless devices (23), determining (44) if a pattern of identification information registrations warrants initiation of security measures, and initiating (48) security measures if the pattern of identification information registrations justifies a heightened security level. The method can further determine if a fluctuation in the number of MAC Identifications corresponding to mobile devices within a given area during a predetermined time period matches a profile or pattern indicative of the heightened security level. The method can further maintain a historical database (24) of MAC Identification registrations for a given area during a predetermined time period corresponding to one or more network access points.
