A method and device for broadcasting, within a radiocommunications network, one or more pieces of information to one or more radiocommunication terminal(s)is provided. The network includes a server and at least two different types of transmission channels, wherein the information is divided into a personal portion that is dedicated to a given terminal, and a common portion that is common to every terminal having subscribed to the network, The information is distributed over two types of data transmission channels, the first type of channel being dedicated to the personal portion of the information, the second type of channel being dedicated to the common portion of the information.

Method for broadcasting information to terminals within a radiocommunication network, and terminal making use of such method

A method of managing the operation of a mobile telephone in a telecommunications network, the method being of the type in which the mobile terminal is designed to operate selectively in a telephone call mode or in a navigator mode, and of the type in which display means, forming part of the mobile terminal or connected to the mobile terminal, are suitable for displaying a service data page formatted by a sequence of instructions in a language adapted to service data, the service data page giving access to at least one service. In the method, a 'preferred' mobile terminal operating mode is selected for implementing a service by incorporating a preferred mode selection instruction in the sequence of instructions for the service data page giving access to the service. Preferably, the navigator mode uses wireless application protocol (WAP), and the language adapted to service data is taken from the extensible markup language (XML) family, and in particular is wireless markup language (WML). In a variant, the language adapted to service data is hypertext markup language (HTML) or a language derived therefrom.

Method of managing the operation of a mobile terminal in a telecommunications network

A mobile radio-telephone terminal includes a radio means activated by a chip card. The chip card includes a memory containing a subscriber identification word (PIN, IMSI) and is connected to an input of a comparator. The terminal comprises means for receiving the card connected to the radio means and the memory for inputting a particular identification word (PIN, PINUT), associated with the card and is connected to the other input of the comparator. The terminal comprises means for transcoding the input word (PINUT), to match it with the card, to control the activation of the radio means from the subscriber identification word.

Mobile radio-telephone terminal with controlled usage

A radio-telephone terminal includes connection structure which connects to a radio-telephone network, a telephone handset and a data adaptation circuit arranged to be connected to a data transmission apparatus. The adaptation circuit is integrated into the terminal and can include a microprocessor arranged to manage vocal telephone communications and the data passing through the adaptation circuit.
