Abstract:
1. A first computing device, comprising: a processor unit; a memory system, wherein the memory system has stored therein a first set of data and wherein the memory system has stored therein program instructions that, if executed by the first computing device, cause the first computing device to perform a method comprising: detecting via wireless communication a second computing device that recognizes one or more data formats for communicating with external devices, wherein the first set of data is usable by the first computing device to convert information within the first computing device into a first plurality of data formats for transmission external to the first computing device, and wherein none of the one or more data formats recognized by the second computing device are within the first plurality of data formats; in response to detecting the second computing device: using the updated first set of data, converting data stored by the first computing device to one of the one or more data formats recognized by the second computing device; and directly communicating the converted data to the second computing device wirelessly; wherein the first computing device and the second computing device are each mobile wireless devices; and wherein the second computing device and the external system are different from one another.
