A personal media player (110) is arranged to capture information, such as wireless network information (including network ID and key) and other kinds of information such as credentials (e.g., user name and password), and then share the information with an accessory device (310) when the player (110) is physically coupled to the device in a docking process. When the personal media player (110) is docked, the information is automatically transferred from the player to the device to enable the device to perform some action without any additional effort by the user. This could include, for example, discovering and be securely admitted to a wireless network (306), or accessing a remote service using the transferred credentials. |
