Apparatus and methods for providing a common interface for multiple applications and/or functions in a mobile communication device (MCD). In one exemplary embodiment, this common interface is provided by including one or more micro-servers within the MCD and capable of receiving and processing information from other functions, both internal and external to the mobile communication device. A micro-browser is also optionally resident on the MCD and in communication with the micro-server(s), the latter acting as an application server and as a proxy between the browser and external network agents such as web or carrier servers. The micro-server(s) can also act as a gateway to at least one asynchronous communication channel, and hence allows for more efficient browsing by the MCD.
