<p>A method for receiving a message and outputting the portion of the message that is within the capabilities of the receiver of a wireless device. For a received text message, some or all of the message is converted (70) to voice-based content, depending upon the user"s preference or upon the capability of the wireless device"s display (30). When the display of the wireless device is too small to accommodate a large text-based message, a software module converts the text-based content to voice-based content. The voice-based content is then output to a speaker (80) in the wireless device. This alleviates the need for the user to manipulate the wireless device when the entire text-based message is not viewable at one time on the display of the wireless device. For received messages of more than the one type of content, only the portions of the message that are within the capacities of the receiver are outputted, or converted to another type of content if possible.</p> |
