摘要:
A system and methods providing immediate peer-to-peer messaging between mobile devices in a wireless system. An invitation architecture is disclosed which enables the exchange of personal identification numbers (PINs) without requiring a user to directly access or provide his or her PIN. A messaging application encrypts its associated PIN before providing it to a messaging application on another mobile device through an existing communication application. An invitation process for exchanging encrypted PINs involves receiving an invitation containing a question, obtaining user input of an answer, and transmitting the answer back to the sender with an encrypted PIN. The sender confirms the received answer is correct and replies with its encrypted PIN.

A messaging application encrypts its associated PIN before providing it to a messaging application on another mobile device through an existing communication application.

摘要:
First and second communication devices respectively have first and second personal identification numbers (PINs). The first communication device transmits to the second communication device a first encryption key, and receives from the second communication device the second PIN that has been encrypted by the second communication device using the first encryption key. The first communication device receives from the second communication device a second encryption key, decrypts the encrypted second PIN, and encrypts the first PIN using the second encryption key, and transmits the encrypted first PIN to the second communication device. The first communication device conducts, with the second communication, device a peer-to-peer messaging session by transmitting to the second communication device peer-to-peer messages that contain the second PIN and receiving from the second communication device peer-to-peer messages that contain the first PIN. Each message is routed by a routing server based on the respective first and second PINs.

摘要:
A system and method for alternatively communicating with an Instant Messaging (IM) contact from an IM application using address book verbs is provided. In an IM application, a context sensitive menu of options is presented to permit a user to invoke alternative communication capabilities (e.g. email, voice, SMS, etc.) of the communication device with the IM contact. Address book contact information stored separately from the IM application is pulled for the IM contact and, for available alternative contact information, respective actions are presented as options (e.g. ‘Call contact’, ‘Email contact’, ‘SMS contact’, etc.). If particular contact information (e.g. phone number is not available) associated alternative communication actions are not presented. Selection of an action invokes the associated alternative application with the appropriate contact information from the IM application.
