A platform for managing recommendation models is described. The platform processes and/or facilitates a processing of at least one user identification characteristic associated with at least one device to determine a user identity. The platform further determines at least one communication account active at the at least one device. The platform also causes, at least in part, an association of one or more recommendations models with the user identity, the at least one communication account, the at least one device, or a combination thereof.

Method and apparatus for managing recommendation models

A system and method is constructed to provide financing of mobile communications by sponsors in return for permitting the dissemination of advertisements before, during, or after a particular call. The system includes a location server through which communication channels can be established, mobile communication terminals inter connected for communication over the communication channels established by the location server, a sponsor server having a memory in which is stored advertisements, and an application module resident on the sponsor server, mobile communication terminal, or location server to control a communication from one of the mobile communication terminals to another of the mobile communication terminals to, at the request of a user of the mobile communication terminal, place advertisements from the sponsor server into the communication and charge the cost of the communication to the sponsor server.

Method of advertising using mobile communications

Various methods are provided for recommending interaction between devices in a local environment. One example method may include locating at least one device within a local environment in response to an interaction with content. The at least one device that is located within a local environment is configured to provide functionality related to the interaction with the content. The method may include identifying a selected device from the located at least one device based on a user profile recommendation and the interaction with the content. The method may further include causing at least one of the content and an executable to be transferred to the identified selected device. Similar and related example apparatuses and example computer program products are also provided.

Method, apparatus, and computer program product for recommending interaction between devices in a local environment

An apparatus includes a display and a processor connected to the display. The processor being configured to transmit at least one reply communication in response to an incoming communication, the at least one reply communication being formatted by the processor for a communication protocol that is different from a communication protocol of the incoming communication.

Replying through different channels

An apparatus including a processor, a memory connected to the processor, a user interface connected to the processor and a communication module connected to the processor. The processor is configured to automatically monitor at least one incoming message status for each of at least two voice mail accounts, and to register each of the at least one message status in the memory.

Voice mail extension

A method and apparatus for updating transmission power class information of a Mobile Station (MS) in a General Packet Radio Services (GPRS) network. The invention updates transmission power class information of the MS in the GPRS network by initiating a Routing Area Update (RAU) procedure in the MS. The RAU procedure includes sending from the MS to a Serving GPRS Support Node (SGSN) of the GPRS network a RAU request message including a MS Radio Access Capability (RAC) Information Element (IE) which includes an IE indicating a new transmission power class of the MS, accepting in the SGSN the IE indicating a new transmission power class of the MS included in the MS RAC of the RAU request message, and delivering to a Base Station (BSS) the IE indicating a new transmission power class of the MS, thereby updating the transmission power class information of the MS at the BSS.
