Abstract:
1. A wireless communication device, comprising: a display to provide graphical information to a user; a cellular telephony module to access at least one cellular network; a wireless communication module to access at least one non-cellular network; an antenna configured to be in wireless communication with a plurality of compatible and currently accessible communication networks, the plurality of compatible and currently accessible communication networks comprising the at least one cellular network and at least one non-cellular network; a power source and power control module operable to provide power to the wireless communication device; a microprocessor executable mobile network selector; and a microprocessor executable mobile network analyzer operable to periodically send a packet through each of the compatible and currently accessible networks and time each of the compatible and currently accessible networks to determine a measured data packet throughput speed and data packet integrity, wherein the microprocessor executable mobile network selector compares, based on predetermined rules, the measured data packet throughput speed and integrity for each of the compatible, currently accessible wireless networks with at least one data transmission resource requirement for an application, service, transaction, and/or user preference and determines if one or more of the compatible, currently accessible networks can satisfy the at least one data transmission resource requirement.
