<p>A method and apparatus for providing personal and business mobile wireless communications service is described. A message (40) is received having a message type (44). Message separability and cost allocation is performed based on the message type. The message (40) is processed when the message (40) is a fleet message, and the message (40) is forwarded to a message management center (20a) when the message is a personal message. Once the message is forwarded, it is deleted. In one embodiment of the invention, the messages are transmitted via a wireless satellite link between a mobile communications terminal (10) and a network management system (16). A fleet computer (18a) receives the messages from the network management system (16) and, after determining whether they are personal or fleet messages, processes them accordingly.</p> |
