20080261594 | COMPLETE MESSAGE DELIVERY TO MULTI-MODE COMMUNICATION DEVICE - A system and method for complete message delivery to a multi-mode communication device is presented. The communication device is adaptable to communicate with one or more carrier networks and one or more data networks. When a new message is received for the communication device, a message notification is sent to the device via a first network. The communication device parses the message notification and retrieves the complete message via a second network. Alternatively, the message notification may be delivered and the complete message may be retrieved via the same network. | 10-23-2008 |
20080261616 | POSITION-BASED AUTOMATIC CONFIGURATION OF PORTABLE DEVICE - A method for automatically configuring a portable device comprises determining a position of the portable device and automatically configuring the portable device based on the determined position. | 10-23-2008 |
20080270625 | SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR ACCESSING DATA AND APPLICATIONS ON A HOST WHEN THE HOST IS IN A DORMANT STATE - A system for enabling the viewing, distributing and/or manipulation of stored data or applications on a host device when the host device is in a power-save, dormant or other semi-active state. In one embodiment, a peripheral device is provided which runs its own native operating system. When the peripheral device is connected to the host device, which is running a different native operating system, the peripheral device is capable of sharing files that are stored on the host device, thereby permitting the viewing, editing, transferring or other manipulation of the files. In another embodiment, a wireless modem or similar device is integrated into the host device. When the host device enters a power-save or dormant state, a hand-off occurs to the wireless modem such that the files contained on the host device remain accessible. | 10-30-2008 |
20100293249 | METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR LOADING LANDING PAGE - A method comprises receiving a request from a user device by a portable hotspot for a landing page; identifying the user device using a device signature; and retrieving a framework associated with the device signature from a central server. The framework includes one or more content areas, wherein at least one content area includes content available to multiple user devices, and at least one content area includes content specific to the user device. The method further comprises forming a landing page for display on the user device using the framework and the content. | 11-18-2010 |
20120066747 | SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR PROVISIONING A WIRELESS DEVICE TO ONLY BE ABLE TO ACCESS NETWORK SERVICES WITHIN A SPECIFIC LOCATION - A system and method for provisioning wireless devices such that they are only capable of accessing network services when in a specified location. A device surveys the current location of the device for existing base stations and stores a corresponding network environment profile. After the profile is stored, network services will only be provided to the device if the current network profile matches the stored profile. | 03-15-2012 |
20130304866 | SYSTEM AND METHOD OF UTILIZING WIRELESS USB DEVICE AS LOCAL PROXY FOR CLOUD STORAGE - Systems and methods are provided for making cloud storage more easily accessible using a wireless device, such as, e.g., a wireless Universal Serial Bus (USB) dongle/modem, mobile hotspot device, etc. In particular, the wireless USB device is used to emulate a standard mass storage class device, thus allowing a user local data access to the wireless USB device. This “local” data access is then translated to remote data access with respect to the actual cloud storage allowing cloud storage to be effectuated without additional login procedures and without the opening/installation of cloud storage-specific applications. | 11-14-2013 |
