Abstract:
1. A method of propagating a mobile communication device state, said method comprising: receiving, from a mobile communication device, at a server in communication with said mobile communication device, state data defining a state of said mobile communication device, said state data incorporated into wireless network data transmitted from said mobile communication device; storing, at said server, said state data in a resource indicator; receiving a request for said state data from a second server; and transmitting at least a subset of said state data to said second server, such that said second server can determine whether said mobile communication device is in a state to handle incoming data, said incoming data normally transmitted to said mobile communication device via a first link, and said state data comprises data for determining whether said incoming data can be transmitted to said mobile communication device via a second link different from said first link, wherein when a difference between a current time, and a time that said state data was generated, said time stored in said state data, is above a threshold value, said second server determines that said state data received from said server no longer comprises a current state of said mobile electronic device, and said mobile communication device receives a query from said second server on one of said first link and said second link to determine if mobile communication device is in said state to handle said incoming data.
