<p>An apparatus (11) and method (140) for providing wireless media access and storage are described. Data values and program code are stored in a data store (63) in a general purpose memory that includes randomly accessible memory locations. Session-based communication connectivity is provided via a wireless interface (69) with a wireless information service (13) in accordance with a wireless protocol. A user interface (23-31, 43) is exported and includes inputs controls receiving user instructions and output channels (31, 43) capable of media playback. A processor (62) is operatively coupled to the data store (63), the wireless interface (69), and the user interface (23-31, 43). An operating system (64) is executed responsive to user instructions received via the input controls (23-29). The data values and the program code maintained in the data store (63) are cooperatively processed. Media content is received via the wireless information service (13) through the wireless interface (69) for transitory storage in the data store (63). The media content is played on the output channels (31, 43).</p> |
