<p>A mobile (cellular) telephone capability is built into a non-mobile appliance, such as a video recorder, television set-top box or personal computer, in order to receive calls from another telephone that is remote of the appliance. The appliance has a unique telephone number that is dialed by the other telephone to establish a direct connection between the two over a mobile telephone network. Data are then sent to the appliance through the network, such as data of pictures taken by a mobile picture telephone and any accompany sound. A user of a picture telephone may conveniently send pictures to his or her home or office while traveling on vacation or business, and even remotely cause such pictures to be sent from the appliance to friends and family.</p> |
