<p>A personal communicator receiving station (10), also known as a holster, is capable of receiving a personal communicator unit (12) and communicating therewith. Such receiving stations may be at various locations, including a subscriber's home (74), office (76), automobile (78) and other sites. The personal communicator includes the telephone number for call forwarding updating in the central exchange (70) of the personal communications network, while the receiving station includes a call forwarding number. When the receiving station is connected to a landline system, the receiving station obtains the network update number from the personal communicator operatively positioned therein, and communicates the call forwarding number to the network central exchange. In a variation, the personal communicator obtains the call forwarding number from the receiving station and communicates that number to the network through the personal communications system.</p> |
