Abstract
A data transfer method for reducing the burden on a mobile communication device is disclosed. Phone directory data is stored in a computer. When transferring phone directory data from the computer to a mobile communication device, it is determined whether the processing power of the mobile communication device is large enough to produce desired search tables from the phone directory data. If the processing power is large enough, the phone directory data is sequentially transferred to the mobile communication device. If no such processing power is available, the computer produces the desired search tables and the phone directory data having the desired search tables added thereto is sequentially transferred to the mobile communication device.
