| 20080304639 | SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR COMMUNICATING WITH INTERACTIVE SERVICE SYSTEMS - An interaction system is described, which can reside on a cellular phone, a personal data assistant (PDA), a laptop computer, or any general purpose computing device. The interaction system provides a greatly simplified user interface for communication with interactive service systems. The interaction system builds the user interface by interpreting an associated profile that enables a user to access the interactive service system. The entire menu system of the interactive service system is presented to the user in a simple and easy to navigate set of menus, user input prompts and audible outputs of requested user information and confirmations. The interaction system saves time and minimizes user entry errors. The system leverages existing interactive service systems while taking full advantage of computing device features. | 12-11-2008 |
