<p>A Wireless Phone/pager system is modified to allow an owner to have proximity services such as toll tag access, ATM dispensing, gas pump dispensing, store credit card checkout, television remote control, garage door access, and more services using their wireless Phone/pager. The modification is accomplished in such a way that the existing wireless phone/pager/palm computer systems and the proximity device processing units require very little modification but produce a truly Advanced Wireless Phone/pager/palm computer System (AWPS). The AWPS can be appended in a seamless manner to the existing wireless communication and proximity service provider systems in current use. The new system virtually eliminates the need to carry multiple credit cards and access devices such as toll tags. Another feature of the invention is the built-in finger print detector unit which automatically provides unique owner codes which can be used to either replace or supplement the PIN codes usually required with the proximity service providers. The system may also combine multiple proximity billing services with the Phone/pager service provider, i.e., another convenience that would be greatly appreciated by the consumer.</p> |
