Apparatus and system for transferring data

摘要

The invention relates to a system which allows the transfer of data between first and second remote locations. In one embodiment the transfer is between apparatus in the form of telephone apparatus at each location. In a second embodiment the transfer of data is performed via apparatus in the form of two broadcast data receivers allocating the data as part of an e-mail transmission, but in both cases the data is transferred between a device and apparatus at the first location and subsequently from the apparatus to apparatus at the second location via a telecommunications link, where the data is typically transferred from the apparatus at the second location to a further device.
