The invention relates to a method of processing an electronic service guide in a terminal. The terminal is configured for receiving an electronic service guide over a network. The method involves receiving the electronic service guide by the terminal over the network. The terminal has a first capability status. The electronic service guide is processed by the terminal in dependence of the first capability status of the terminal.

Method of processing an electronic service guide and electronic service guide broadcaster

A method of identifying proximate mobile devices, the method comprising the steps of: providing a sensory identifier (ID), a first mobile device () detecting the sensory identifier (ID), a second mobile device () detecting the sensory identifier (ID), the first mobile device () sending a request message associated with the sensory identifier (ID) to the second mobile device (), and the second mobile device () sending an acknowledgement message to the first mobile device () so as to establish mutual identification. The sensory identifier (ID) may comprise a visual identifier, such as a bar code, and/or an audio identifier, such as a sound signal. An audio identifier may be produced by tapping the mobile devices together.
