Abstract
In a cellular telephone terminal having increased storage capability, ease of entry and access for data stored therein is provided through utilization of a computer equipped with a modem, a wired telephone network and the cellular telephone network. A user utilizes the ease of data entry implicit to modern computers through dedicated or existing personal information organizers to input data into a database, such as a personal dialing directory, at the computer.
For the entering of data at the cellular telephone terminal serving as a portable information storage and retrieval device, the terminal, also equipped with a modem, is configured in a data download mode where data can be received from the computer and entered into on-board storage.
The computer then places a modem telephone call to the terminal, either directly or through a network translator, and transfers the data into the terminal. The data is then accessible through standard data recall techniques using a display and interface keys on the telephone terminal serving as a portable information storage and retrieval device.
