Information output devices for installation in public places normally used as service terminals or information terminals are known, such as for example automatic ticket issuing machines at railway stations and in tourist information terminals in town centres. A large-area screen and high-power loudspeakers effect a respective visual display and acoustic output of information previously received as video- or audio data via a data network to which the device is connected. The invention is based on the recognition that information received via a mobile communications terminal (20) can be directly transmitted to a fixed information output device (10) and output on said device with a high degree of quality. For this purpose the information output device (10) is extended by a receiving section (13) which wirelessly receives information signals containing video- and/or audio data from a mobile communications terminal (20) situated in the vicinity of the device (10) and which forwards these data to the video- and/or audio section for output via the screen (11) and/or loudspeaker (12) respectively.
