| 20110158408 | SUPPLEMENTAL MOBILE COMMUNICATION DEVICE - Systems and methods provide a supplemental mobile communication device that allows use of a host communication device with a network different from that associated with the host device, e.g., a network of a different service provider or that is otherwise restricted to the host device. The system may include a supplemental mobile communication device having a transmitter selectively communicating with a plurality of host devices associated with a different wireless network. The system may further include a processor configured to compare a service plan associated with the supplemental mobile communication device with a service plan associated with the host device, and selectively route communications initiated by a user interface of the host device through one of the first and second communication networks based upon at least the comparison of the first and second service plans. | 06-30-2011 |
