INFORMATION PROCESSING METHOD AND INFORMATION PROCESSING APPARATUS HAVING COMMUNICATION FUNCTION

摘要

An information processing apparatus that acquires identification information of an electronic device and makes, based on the identification information, communication with the electronic device via a network. When a cellular phone (11) is mounted on an input display unit (2) of a personal computer (1), the phone number of the cellular phone (11) stored in an RF tag built in the cellular phone (11) is read by a reader/writer built in the personal computer (1). A telephone circuit line is closed, based on the foregoing phone number, between the cellular phone (11) and the personal computer (1). Then, data are transferred between the cellular phone (11) and the personal computer (1) via the telephone circuit line.
