Abstract
An intelligent messaging system automatically conveys messages generated by a variety of message sources to one or more designated message recipients who receive communications via different types of communication devices, including a large character display. A message server automatically dispatches messages and updates to messages to a communication device interface which converts the message and message updates to a protocol compatible with the types of communication devices used by the designated message recipients. The converted message is further routed to local or remote communication destinations at which the message recipients' communication devices are located. Automatic, real-time updates of messages can thus be achieved.
