     DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS  
       [0100]    Reference is now made to FIG. 1, which is a simplified pictorial illustration of a methodology and system for accessing information using both non-product specific information and product-specific information received wirelessly by a user in accordance with a preferred embodiment of the present invention. As seen in FIG. 1, there is provided a system and methodology wherein a message, here a commercial message, is broadcast, typically by a radio broadcast facility, such as an FM broadcast facility. Non product-specific information is to be understood as information which is not necessarily applicable to accessing a given product or service, while product-specific information is to be understood as information which is applicable to accessing a given product or service. It is appreciated that the product-specific information may have any suitable level of specificity, i.e. it can refer to a single product or service or to a class of products and services as appropriate.  
         [0101]    In the illustrated embodiment of FIG. 1, the radio broadcast facility, represented by an antenna tower designated by reference numeral  100 , is a FM broadcast facility having subcarrier broadcast functionality, such as via a RDS, RBDS or a DARC protocol. Alternatively or additionally the radio broadcast facility may be a digital radio broadcast facility. As illustrated in FIG. 1, the broadcast message includes an audible audio content portion, designated by reference numeral  102 , which says “FREE MINERAL WATER—BUY NOW!!” and an inaudible non-audio content portion, designated by reference numeral  104 , which contains at least the following information: “RADIO NY FREE WATER WWW.PORTAL.COM 1-800-864-2222 WWW.MWATER/FREE.COM 1-800-WATER4U”. The inaudible non-audio content portion  104  is preferably a subcarrier content portion when the radio broadcast facility is an FM broadcast facility having a subcarrier broadcast functionality.  
         [0102]    In this embodiment it is seen that both non-product specific information, for example a telephone number such as “1-800-864-2222” or a web address such as “WWW.PORTAL.COM” and product-specific information, for example “1-800-WATER4U” or the product-specific web address “WWW.MWATER/FREE.COM” are provided in the inaudible non-audio content portion  104 .  
         [0103]    The broadcast message may be received, for example, by a radio  106  in a vehicle  108 . The audible audio content portion  102  may be heard by a user in the vehicle  108 , via a speaker  110  while the inaudible non-audio content portion  104  is not heard.  
         [0104]    A typical data set representing the contents of the inaudible non-audio content portion transmitted by broadcast facility  100  and received by radio  106  appears in FIG. 15A as described herein below with reference to FIG. 25.  
         [0105]    It is noted that at least part of the inaudible non-audio content portion  104  is not only not heard but is also not visible to the user on a radio display, so as to prevent possible distraction of the user.  
         [0106]    It is further noted that avoidance of display of at least part of the content portion  104  on a radio display is an important safety feature of the present invention and distinguishes the inaudible non-audio content portion  104  from conventional subcarrier messages, such as commercial RDS messages, which are conventionally displayed on radio displays.  
         [0107]    Thus, it is seen that only the legend “RADIO NY” is displayed on the radio display, designated by reference numeral  112 . This message typically continues to be displayed as long as the radio is tuned to Radio NY and thus is considered not to be distracting.  
         [0108]    A typical data set representing the contents of the inaudible non-audio content portion transmitted by broadcast facility  100 , indicating that portion displayed by display  112  of radio  106  appears in FIG. 15B as described herein below with reference to FIG. 25.  
         [0109]    In response to hearing the audio content portion, “FREE MINERAL WATER—BUY NOW!!”, the user may issue a command, typically orally, such as “CAPTURE”. This command, in accordance with a preferred embodiment of the present invention, is received by either the radio  106  or by a mobile communicator  114 , such as a mobile telephone or a suitable equipped personal digital assistant.  
         [0110]    In response to receipt of the “CAPTURE” command, at least some, if not all of the information contained in the inaudible non-audio content portion  104  is supplied from radio  106  to the mobile communicator  114 , as indicated symbolically at reference numeral  116 . In FIG. 1, for example, only the product-specific web address part of content portion  104  is shown as being supplied, it being understood that any other part of content portion  104  may be alternatively or additionally supplied. A mobile communicator display  117  can list subject titles of other such capture events captured in a similar manner as described herein. Thus, capture event # 1  concerns a news item, capture event # 2  concerns a book, and capture event # 3  concerns water. Further information contained in the inaudible non-audio content portion  104  and pertaining to the captured event may be displayed on alternative menus on the mobile communicator display  117  as shown in FIG. 1  
         [0111]    A typical data set representing the contents of the inaudible non-audio content portion  104  transmitted by broadcast facility  100 , indicating those portions displayed by display  114  of mobile communicator  117  appears in FIG. 15C as described herein below with reference to FIG. 25.  
         [0112]    In the illustrated embodiment of FIG. 1, the user may at any time thereafter actuate the mobile communicator  114  by issuing a command, typically orally, such as “CONTACT”. In response to receipt of the “CONTACT” command the mobile communicator  114  can establish contact on the basis of part or all of the content contained in the inaudible non-audio content portion  104 .  
         [0113]    [0113]FIG. 1 shows an example, wherein a user actuates the mobile communicator  114 , typically embodied as a web-enabled wireless personal digital assistant, by issuing a command, typically orally, such as “CONTACT” to access a destination web site identified by the product-specific web address “WWW.MWATER/FREE.COM” which forms part of the product-specific information of content portion  104  and is designated in FIG. 1 by the server  118 .  
         [0114]    In the illustrated embodiment, this product-specific access is achieved via a non product-specific portal, embodied in a non product-specific server  119 , which is accessed via the Internet by use of a non product-specific web address, such as WWW.PORTAL.COM, which forms part of the non product-specific information of content portion  104 . Alternatively, the non product-specific web address need not be broadcast and can be stored in the mobile communicator  114 , such as by means of a cookie.  
         [0115]    A typical data set representing the contents of a communication sent by the mobile communicator  114  and received by a non product-specific server  119  appears in FIG. 15D as described herein below with reference to FIG. 25.  
         [0116]    Once the user has accessed the product-specific web site identified by the product-specific web address WWW.MWATER/FREE.COM at the product-specific destination server  118 , the user may obtain information or, as shown in FIG. 1 enter into any appropriate commercial transaction, such as one which results in water being delivered to the residence of the user, as described hereinbelow.

In the illustrated embodiment, this access is achieved via a non-product-specific telephone center  124  by use of a non product-specific telephone number, such as “1-800-864-2222” which forms part of the non product-specific information of content portion  104 . Alternatively the non product-specific telephone center number need not be broadcast and can be stored in the mobile communicator  114 , by means such as a cookie or SMS.  
         [0118]    A feature of the mobile communicator  114  may be an associated GPS locator (not shown). The geographical location coordinates from the GPS locator (not shown) may be transmitted from the mobile communicator  114  to the non product-specific server  119  and used in such a manner that thereby facilitates the appropriate commercial transaction. Such facilatation may include directing the user to the nearest product-specific facility, or enable the non product-specific server  119  to notify a product-specific facility of the whereabouts of a user.  
         [0119]    In accordance with a preferred embodiment of the present invention, a database  126  may be provided which may receive all or part of a data set containing content portion  127  from the non product-specific server  1198  via a computer network communication, as from a computer  128 , associated with the broadcast facility  100 . This database  126  is preferably coupled to the non product-specific server  119  so as to collect and correlate user information, including cellular location information supplied by the cellular operators, and activities in connection with given content portions  104 , in order to enable suitable payments to be made among the various parties to the activities illustrated in FIG. 1.  
         [0120]    A typical data set representing the contents of the communication from the non product-specific server  119  indicating those portions stored in database  126  appears in FIG. 15E as described herein below with reference to FIG. 25.  
         [0121]    It is appreciated that the non product-specific telephone center  124  or other user contact interface may be provided alternatively or in addition to server  119  and may thus be coupled to database  126 . Typically the server  119 , the telephone center  124  and the database  126  are provided by a non-product specific communication facility  130 .  
         [0122]    Reference is now made to FIG. 2, which is a simplified pictorial illustration of a methodology and system for accessing information using both non-product specific information and product-specific information received wirelessly by a user in accordance with another preferred embodiment of the present invention. As seen in FIG. 2, there is provided a system and methodology wherein a message, here a commercial message, is broadcast, typically by a radio broadcast facility, such as an FM broadcast facility. Non product-specific information is to be understood as information which is not necessarily applicable to accessing a given product or service, while product specific information is to be understood as information which is applicable to accessing a given product or service.  
         [0123]    In the illustrated embodiment of FIG. 2, the radio broadcast facility, represented by an antenna tower designated by reference numeral  200 , is a FM broadcast facility having subcarrier broadcast functionality, such as via a RDS, RBDS or a DARC protocol.

         [0170]    Concurrent, or any time previous, with the broadcasting of the digital broadcast message, full contact information  406  and, but not necessarily, other information pertaining to the broadcast message, such as a location identify for the digital transmitter facility  400 , corresponding to the product-specific code contained in portion  404  can be transmitted via a computer network communication, as from a computer  407 , associated with the broadcast facility  400  to a database  408  via a server  409 .  
         [0171]    In response to seeing the billboard  401  bearing the legend, “FREE MINERAL WATER—BUY NOW!!”, or hearing the digitized audio portion  403  via the speaker (not shown) of the mobile communicator  405  or the car radio speaker  411  of car radio  410 , by means of a short range communication protocol, such as Bluetooth, the user may issue a command, typically orally, such as “CAPTURE”. This command, in accordance with a preferred embodiment of the present invention, is received by the mobile communicator  405 , such as a suitably equipped mobile telephone or a suitable equipped personal digital assistant. In response to receipt of the “CAPTURE” command, the product-specific code contained in the inaudible non-audio content portion  404  is supplied to a memory storage medium within the mobile communicator  405 . The mobile communicator display  412  can list subject titles, obtained from the inaudible non-audio content portion  404 , of other such capture events captured in similar manner as described herein. Thus, capture event # 1  concerns a news item, capture event # 2  concerns a book, and capture event # 3  concerns water.  
         [0172]    A typical data set representing the contents of the inaudible non-audio content portion transmitted by broadcast facility  400 , indicating those portions displayed by display  412  of mobile communicator  405  appears in FIG. 18C as described herein below with reference to FIG. 25.  
         [0173]    In the illustrated embodiment, the user may at any time thereafter actuate the mobile communicator  405  to establish contact on the basis of the code contained in the inaudible non-audio content portion  404 .  
         [0174]    In the illustrated embodiment, FIG. 4, the user may at any time thereafter actuate the mobile communicator  405  by issuing a command, typically orally, such as “CONTACT”. In response to receipt of the “CONTACT” command the mobile communicator  405  can establish contact on the basis of part or all of the content contained in the inaudible non-audio content portion  404 . FIG. 4 shows an example wherein a user actuates the mobile communicator  405 , typically embodied as a Bluetooth, web-enabled wireless personal digital assistant, by issuing a command, typically orally, such as “CONTACT” to access a product-specific web site identified by the web address WWW.MWATER/FREE.COM.  
         [0175]    [0175]FIG. 4 shows an example wherein a user actuates the mobile communicator  405 , typically embodied as a Bluetooth, web-enabled wireless personal digital assistant, to access a non product-specific, embodied in the server  409 , via the Internet by use of a non product-specific web address, such as “WWW.PORTAL.COM”. The non product-specific web address may be broadcast as part of content portion  404 . Alternatively, the non-product-specific web address need not be broadcast and can be stored in the mobile communicator  405 , such as by means of a cookie.  
         [0176]    A typical data set representing the contents of a communication sent by the mobile communicator  405  and received by the non product-specific server  409  appears in FIG. 18D as described herein below with reference to FIG. 25.  
         [0177]    Once the user has accessed the non product-specific portal server  409 , the non product-specific portal server  409  transmits the product-specific code embodied in portion  406  to a database  408 , which decodes the product specific code and provides to non product-specific portal server  409  the full product-specific contact information and any further details of the broadcast communication, such as location of broadcast facility  400 , as received from the broadcast facility  400  via the computer  407 . All or part of this information can be received by the mobile communicator  405  and displayed on alternative menus on a mobile communicator display  412  as shown in FIG. 4.  
         [0178]    Upon request by the user the server  409 , identified by non product-specific address www.PORTAL.COM, may access the product-specific web-address, such as “WWW.MWATER/FREE.COM”, of a product-specific server web-site  430  identified by the product-specific code. The server  409  accesses the web site so identified by employing the web-address. Alternatively the mobile communicator may access the product-specific web-address, such as WWW.MWATER/FREE.COM, directly.  
         [0179]    Once the user has accessed the product-specific server web site identified  430  by the web address “WWW.MWATER/FREE.COM”, the user may obtain information pertaining to the captured event or, as further shown in FIG. 4 enter into any appropriate commercial transaction, such as one which results in water being delivered to the residence of the user.  
         [0180]    Alternatively, where the mobile communicator  405  has cellular telephone capabilities the user, upon issuing a command, typically orally, such as “CONTACT” to access a product-specific telephone destination center  432  identified by the product-specific telephone number 1-800-WATER4U which forms part of the product-specific information  406 . In the illustrated embodiment, this access is achieved via the non product-specific telephone center  418  by use of a non product-specific telephone number, such as “1-800-864-2222”. The non product-specific telephone center number need not be broadcast and can be stored in the mobile communicator  405 , by means such as a cookie or SMS.  
         [0181]    A feature of the mobile communicator  405  may be an associated GPS locator (not shown). The geographical location coordinates from the GPS locator (not shown) may be transmitted from the mobile communicator  405  to the non product-specific server  409  and used in such a manner that thereby enhances the appropriate commercial transaction. Such enhancement may include directing the user to the nearest product-specific facility, or enable the non product-specific server  409  to notify a product-specific facility of the whereabouts of a user.  
         [0182]    As in the embodiment of FIG. 1, the database  408  is preferably coupled to the non product-specific portal server  409  so as to collect and correlate user information, including cellular location information supplied by the cellular operators, and activities in connection with given content portions  404 , in order to enable suitable payments to be made among the various parties to the activities illustrated in FIG. 4.  
         [0183]    A typical data set representing the contents of the communication from the non product-specific server  409 , indicating those portions stored in database  408  appears in FIG. 18E as described herein below with reference to FIG. 25.  
         [0184]    It is appreciated that a non product-specific telephone center  418  or other user contact interface may be provided alternatively or in addition to non product-specific portal server  409  and may thus be coupled to database  408 . In the embodiment of FIG. 4, access to the non product-specific telephone center  418  may be via a non product-specific telephone number contained in the content portions  404  and communication of the product-specific code in content portion  404  provides information to an operator in the product-specific telephone center  432  having product-specific web address in order to enable the operator to deal with user requests.  
         [0185]    It is appreciated that the non product-specific telephone center  418  or other user contact interface may be provided alternatively or in addition to server  409  and may thus be coupled to database  408 . Typically the portal server  409 , the non product-specific telephone center  418  and the database  408  are provided by a non-product specific communication facility  434 .  
         [0186]    Reference is now made to FIG. 5, which is a simplified pictorial illustration of methodology and system for accessing information using contact information received wirelessly by a user in accordance with a further preferred embodiment of the present invention. As seen in FIG. 5, there is provided a system and methodology wherein a message, here a commercial message, is broadcast, typically by a radio broadcast facility, of such type as including analogue or digital broadcast facilities.  
         [0187]    In the illustrated embodiment of FIG. 5, the radio broadcast facility, represented by an antenna tower designated by reference numeral  500 , is a broadcast facility of type including analogue or digital broadcasting. As illustrated the broadcast message, includes an audible audio content portion, designated by reference numeral  502 , which says “FREE MINERAL WATER—BUY NOW!!” and an inaudible non-audio portion containing station identification information, in this case “RADIO NY”, that is typically transmitted as subcarrier content. An inaudible non-audio data content portion, designated by reference numeral  504 , which contains at least the following product-specific information: “FREE WATER 1-800-WATER4U WWW.MWATER/FREE.COM” is concurrently provided to a server  506  via a computer network communication, as from a computer  508 , associated with the broadcast facility  500 .  
         [0188]    The broadcast message  502  may be received, for example, by a radio  510  in a vehicle  512 . The audible audio content portion  502  may be heard by a user in the vehicle  512 , via a speaker  514 .  
         [0189]    A typical data set representing the contents of the inaudible non-audio content portion transmitted by broadcast facility  500  and received by radio  510  appears in FIG. 19A as described herein below with reference to FIG. 25.  
         [0190]    As distinct from the embodiments of FIGS.  1 - 4 , no inaudible non-audible product-specific or non product-specific content portion such as  104  in FIG. 1 is broadcast by the broadcast facility  500  as part of the broadcast message. Furthermore, no communication of product-specific or non product-specific content portion necessarily occurs between the radio  510  and the mobile communicator  516 .  
         [0191]    The mobile communicator  516 , present in the vehicle  512 , and with capabilities to be on-line-all-the-time such as gprs-enabled communicator, such as Ericsson Mobile Phones R520 for GSM 900/1800 and GSM 1900, and third generation mobile communicators, is accessed to the server  506  via the Internet by a non product-specific web address, such as “www.portal.com”. The non product-specific server web address is typically stored in the mobile communicator  516  such as by means of a cookie.  
         [0192]    Alternatively, where the mobile communicator  516 , in this embodiment being a GPRS or  3 G device, has digital radio reception capabilities, the audible audio content portion  502  will be received by the mobile communicator  516  and can be heard by the user via a speaker (not shown) in the mobile communicator  516 , or alternatively by the speaker  514  where the communication between the mobile communicator  516  and the speaker  514  is by means of short range communication, such as Bluetooth.  
         [0193]    The mobile communicator  516  is synchronized to the identical station frequency as that of the car radio  510 , for example as shown “Radio NY”, by inputting relevant data into the mobile communicator  516  by automatic means or by manual means. Synchronization of radio station frequencies may be indicated on the radio display  517  and the mobile communicator display  518 . Thus, concurrent with the audible audio content portion  502  being heard by a user via the speaker  514 , a part of the inaudible non-audio data content portion  504  is received by means of a streaming data channel  519  to the mobile communicator  516  from the server  506 .  
         [0194]    As in the previous embodiments FIGS. 1, 2,  3 ,  4 , it is noted that at least part of the inaudible non-audio content portion  504  is not only not heard but is also not visible to the user on a radio display, so as to prevent possible distraction of the user.  
         [0195]    It is further noted that avoidance of display of at least part of the content portion  504  on a display is an important safety feature of the present invention and distinguishes the inaudible non-audio content portion  504  from conventional subcarrier messages, such as commercial RDS messages, which are conventionally displayed in their on radio displays.  
         [0196]    Thus, it is seen that only the legend “RADIO NY” is displayed on the radio display  517 . This message typically continues to be displayed as long as the radio is tuned to Radio NY and thus is considered not to be distracting.  
         [0197]    A typical data set representing the contents of the inaudible non-audio content portion transmitted by broadcast facility  500 , indicating that portion displayed by display  517  of radio  510  appears in FIG. 19B as described herein below with reference to FIG. 25.  
         [0198]    In response to hearing the audio content portion, “FREE MINERAL WATER—BUY NOW!!”, the user may issue a command, typically orally, such as “CAPTURE”. This command, in accordance with a preferred embodiment of the present invention, is received by the mobile communicator  516 , such as a gprs-enabled mobile telephone or any other suitably equipped  3 G personal digital assistant. In response to receipt of the “CAPTURE” command, at least some, if not all of the information contained in the inaudible non-audio data content portion  504  is transferred from streaming-data mode, represented by the communication arrow  519 , between the database  520 , the server  506  and the mobile communicator  516  to a storage medium within the mobile communicator  516 . Part of the stored inaudible non-audio data content portion is shown on the mobile communicator display  518 . For example, the mobile communicator display  518  can list subject titles of other such capture events captured in a similar manner as described herein. Thus, capture event # 1  concerns a news item, capture event # 2  concerns a book, and capture event # 3  concerns water. Further information contained in the inaudible non-audio content portion  504  and pertaining to the captured event may be displayed on alternative menus on the mobile communicator display  518  as shown in FIG. 5.  
         [0199]    A typical data set representing the contents of the inaudible non-audio content portion transmitted by broadcast facility  500 , indicating those portions displayed by display  518  of mobile communicator  516  appears in FIG. 19C as described herein below with reference to FIG. 25.  
         [0200]    In the illustrated embodiment, the user may at any time thereafter actuate the mobile communicator  516  to establish contact on the basis of part or all of the content contained in the inaudible non-audio data content portion  504 . FIG. 5 shows an example wherein a user actuates the mobile communicator  516 , typically embodied as a gprs mobile communicator or  3 G web-enabled wireless personal digital assistant, by issuing a command, typically orally, such as “CONTACT” to access a product-specific web site identified by the product-specific web address WWW.MWATER/FREE.COM, resident on the product-specific server  519  which formed part of the content portion  504 . In the illustrated embodiment, this access is achieved via the non product-specific portal, embodied in the non product-specific server  506 , which is accessed via the Internet by use of a non product-specific web address, such as WWW.PORTAL.COM, The non product-specific web address is typically stored in the mobile communicator  516 , such as by means of a cookie.  
         [0201]    A typical data set representing the contents of a communication sent by the mobile communicator  516  and received by a non product-specific server  506  appears in FIG. 19D as described herein below with reference to FIG. 25.  
         [0202]    Once the user has accessed the product-specific web site  519  identified by the web address “WWW.MWATER/FREE.COM”, the user may obtain information or, as shown in FIG. 5 enter into any appropriate commercial transaction, such as one which results in water being delivered to the residence of the user.  
         [0203]    Alternatively, where the mobile communicator  516  has cellular telephone capabilities the user, upon issuing a command, typically orally, such as “CONTACT” to access a product-specific telephone destination center  530  identified by the product-specific telephone number “1-800-WATER4U” which forms part of the product-specific information  504 . In the illustrated embodiment, this access is achieved via the non product-specific telephone center  524  by use of a non product-specific telephone number, such as “1-800-864-2222”. The non product-specific telephone center number need not be broadcast and can be stored in the mobile communicator  514 , by means such as a cookie or SMS.  
         [0204]    A feature of the mobile communicator  516  may be an associated GPS locator (not shown). The geographical location coordinates from the GPS locator (not shown) may be transmitted from the mobile communicator  516  to the non product-specific server  506  and used in such a manner that thereby enhances the appropriate commercial transaction. Such enhancement may include directing the user to the nearest product-specific facility, or enable the non product-specific server  506  to notify a product-specific facility of the whereabouts of a user.  
         [0205]    In accordance with a preferred embodiment of the present invention, database  520  may be preferably coupled to the non product-specific portal server  506  as to collect and correlate user information and activities in connection with given content portions  504 , in order to enable suitable payments to be made among the various parties to the activities illustrated in FIG. 5.  
         [0206]    A typical data set representing the contents of the communication from the non product-specific server  506 , indicating those portions stored in database  520  appears in FIG. 19E as described herein below with reference to FIG. 25.  
         [0207]    It is appreciated that a non product-specific telephone center  524  or other user contact interface may be provided alternatively or in addition to non-product-specific server  506  and may thus be coupled to database  520 .  
         [0208]    It is further appreciated that the non product-specific telephone center  524  or other user contact interface may be provided alternatively or in addition to server  506  and may thus be coupled to database  520 . Typically the portal server  506 , the non product-specific telephone center  524  and the database  520  are provided by a non-product specific communication facility  526 .  
         [0209]    Reference is now made to FIG. 6, which is a simplified pictorial illustration of a methodology and system for accessing information using both non-product specific information and product-specific information received wirelessly by a user in accordance with a further preferred embodiment of the present invention. As seen in FIG. 6, there is provided a system and methodology wherein a message, here a commercial message, is broadcast, typically by a radio broadcast facility, such as a digital broadcast facility or Internet based web radio. Non product-specific information is to be understood as information which is not necessarily applicable to accessing a given product or service, while product-specific information is to be understood as information which is applicable to accessing a given product or service.  
         [0210]    In the illustrated embodiment of FIG. 6, the radio broadcast facility, represented by an antenna tower designated by reference numeral  600 , is a digital broadcast facility with both audio and data broadcast capabilities. Alternatively or additionally the radio broadcast facility may be an Internet web radio broadcast facility. As illustrated in FIG. 6, the broadcast message includes a digital audible audio content portion, designated by reference numeral  602 , which says “FREE MINERAL WATER—BUY NOW!!” and a digital inaudible non-audio content portion, designated by reference numeral  604 , which contains at least the following information: “RADIO NY FREE WATER WWW.PORTAL.COM 1-800-864-2222 WWW.MWATER/FREE.COM 1-800-WATER4U”.  
         [0211]    In this embodiment it is seen that both non-product specific information, for example a telephone number such as “1-800-864-2222” or a web address such as “WWW.PORTAL.COM” and product-specific information, for example “1-800-WATER4U” or the product-specific web address “WWW.MWATER/FREE.COM” are provided in the digital inaudible non-audio content portion  604 . It is appreciated that the product-specific information may have any suitable level of specificity, i.e. it can refer to a single product or service or to a class of products and services as appropriate.  
         [0212]    The broadcast message may be received, for example, by a computerized integrated vehicle information system  606 , in a vehicle  607 . Examples of computerized integrated vehicle information system  606  are Clarion Auto PC, AC Electric Vehicles Ltd. Compact Mobile Computer, and Delphi Automotive Systems Infotainment PC. Such computerized integrated vehicle information systems incorporate integrated communication systems such as a digital radio receiver, wireless modem for Internet connectivity, cellular telephone, computerized car guidance system utilizing GPS  608 : The digital audible audio content portion  602  may be heard by a user in the vehicle  607 , via a speaker  610  while the digital inaudible non-audio data content portion  604  is not heard.  
         [0213]    A typical data set representing the contents of the inaudible non-audio content portion transmitted by broadcast facility  600  and received by integrated radio  609  appears in FIG. 20A as described herein below with reference to FIG. 25.  
         [0214]    It is noted that at least part of the digital inaudible non-audio content portion  604  is not only not heard but is also not visible to the user on the computer display  613 , so as to prevent possible distraction of the user.  
         [0215]    It is further noted that avoidance of display of at least part of the digital content portion  604  on the computer display  613  is an important safety feature of the present invention and distinguishes the digital inaudible non-audio content portion  604  from conventional subcarrier messages, such as commercial RDS messages, which are conventionally displayed on radio displays.  
         [0216]    Thus, it is seen that only static information, such as the legend “RADIO NY”, is displayed on the computer display  613 . This message typically continues to be displayed as long as the radio is tuned to Radio NY and thus is considered not to be distracting.

The operation of switch  948  may be similar to that of switch  944 , the only difference in their effect being that switch  948  governs storage of the non-audio, non-visible output, while switch  944  governs supply thereof to a data signal processor  950 .  
         [0275]    The output of the data signal processor  950  may be supplied to a data signal separator  952 , which may provide a visible output which may be displayed on a screen  115  of the mobile communicator  114  and also provides a contact information output, which may be stored in a signal storage medium  954 . In the context of FIG. 1, the contact information output may include, for example, a web address such as “WWW.MWATER/FREE.COM” or a telephone number. Such storage may be, but need not necessarily be, governed by a switch  956  controlled by an operator using an operator interface  958 .  
         [0276]    In the example shown in FIG. 1, the operator interface  958  may be speech actuated, such that when the operator says “CONTACT” as illustrated in FIG. 1, the contact information output is stored in storage medium  954 .  
         [0277]    Additionally or alternatively, a switch  960  may be provided at an output of storage medium  954  and may be actuated by an operator using operator interface  958 . The operation of switch  960  may be similar to that of switch  956 , the only difference in their effect being that switch  956  governs storage of the contact information output, while switch  960  governs supply thereof to a transceiver  962 .  
         [0278]    A GPS device  955  may be associated with the mobile communicator  114  and may transmit the user&#39;s geographic coordinates to the server  119  via the transceiver  962 .  
         [0279]    Transceiver  962  preferably includes a wireless modem which is enabled to communicate via the Internet with server  119  (FIG. 1), which in turn communicates with database  126  (FIG. 1).  
         [0280]    In the illustrated embodiment, which is described functionally hereinabove with reference to FIG. 1, the user may at any time actuate the mobile communicator  114  to establish contact via transceiver  962  on the basis of part or all of the contact information output from data signal separator  952 .  
         [0281]    [0281]FIG. 1 shows an example wherein a user actuates the mobile communicator  114 , typically embodied as a web-enabled wireless personal digital assistant, to access a web site identified by the web address “WWW.MWATER/FREE.COM” which forms part of the content information output. In the illustrated embodiment, this access is achieved via a portal, embodied in server  119 , which is accessed via the Internet by use of a non product-specific web address, such as “WWW.PORTAL.COM”. The non product-specific web address need not be broadcast and is typically stored in the mobile communicator  114 , such as by means of a cookie. Alternatively, the non product-specific web address may be broadcast as part of content portion  104  (FIG. 1) or otherwise.  
         [0282]    Once the user has accessed the web site identified by the web address “WWW.MWATER/FREE.COM”, the user may obtain information or, as shown in FIG. 1 enter into any appropriate commercial transaction, such as one which results in water being delivered to the residence of the user.  
         [0283]    In accordance with a preferred embodiment of the present invention, database  126  may receive all or part of the content information output from data signal separator  952  via a computer network communication, and from data signal processor  950 . Database  126  is preferably operative to collect and correlate user information and activities in connection with given contact information and to communicate with a facilitator  964 . The facilitator  964  may have multiple functionalities which may be combined in a single entity or divided among various separate entities. The facilitator  964  preferably interfaces among and between a broadcast facility  100  (FIG. 1) a user, a supplier of goods or services  966  and various elements of communication facility  130  (FIG. 1) such as database  126 , server  119  and telephone center  124 .

         [0287]    The digital broadcast message may be received, for example, by a radio  106  (FIG. 1), typically located in a vehicle. As seen in FIG. 8C, the radio is a non-standard digital radio including a digital signal receiver  1020  which outputs to a digital signal processor  1022 . The processed signal is delivered to a digital signal separator  1024  which is operative to separate the received digital signal into audio and data portions which are processed respectively by a data to voice processor  1026  and a data signal separator  1028 . The output of the data to voice processor  1026  may be heard by a user via a speaker, such as speaker  110  (FIG. 1).  
         [0288]    The output of the data signal separator  1028  may provide a visible data output to a suitable radio display, such as display  112  (FIG. 1). It is a particular feature of the present invention that the data signal separator  1028  also provides a non-audio, non-visible output, which may be stored in a signal storage medium  1030 . Such storage may be, but need not necessarily be, governed by a switch  1032  controlled by an operator using an operator interface  1034 .

         [0290]    Additionally or alternatively, a switch  1036  may be provided at an output of storage medium  1030  and may be actuated by an operator using operator interface  1034 . The operation of switch  1036  may be similar to that of switch  1032 , the only difference in their effect being that switch  1032  governs storage of the non-audio, non-visible output, while switch  1036  governs supply thereof to a transceiver  1038 .  
         [0291]    The non-audio, non-visible output transmitted by transceiver  1038  may be received by a transceiver  1040  forming part of a mobile communicator  114  (FIG. 1). It is appreciated that transceivers  1038  and  1040  and the communication link therebetween may be replaced by any other suitable wired or wireless communication link, such as a ohmic connection, an IR communication link, a Bluetooth communication link or another short range communication link.  
         [0292]    The output of transceiver  1040  may be supplied to a data signal processor  1050 . The output of the data signal processor  1050  may be supplied to a data signal separator  1052 , which may provide a visible output which may be displayed on a screen of the mobile communicator  114  and also provides a contact information output, which may be stored in a signal storage medium  1054 . In the context of FIG. 1, the contact information output may include, for example, a web address such as “WWW.MWATER/FREE.COM” or a telephone number. Such storage may be, but need not necessarily be, governed by a switch  1056  controlled by an operator using an operator interface  1058 .

         [0294]    Additionally or alternatively, a switch  1060  may be provided at an output of storage medium  1054  and may be actuated by an operator using operator interface  1058 . The operation of switch  1060  may be similar to that of switch  1056 , the only difference in their effect being that switch  1056  governs storage of the contact information output, while switch  1060  governs supply thereof to a transceiver  1062 .  
         [0295]    A GPS device  1055  may be associated with the mobile communicator  114  and may transmit the user&#39;s geographic coordinates to the server  119  via the transceiver  1062 .

Database  126  is preferably operative to collect and correlate user information and activities in connection with given contact information and to communicate with a facilitator  1068 . The facilitator  1068  may have multiple functionalities which may be combined in a single entity or divided among various separate entities. The facilitator preferably interfaces among and between a broadcast facility  100  (FIG. 1) a user, a supplier of goods or services  1066  and various elements of communication facility  130  (FIG. 1) such as database  126 , server  119  and telephone center  124 . The facilitator  1068  may be operated by the operator of communication facility  130  or by another entity.  
         [0301]    The facilitator  1068  preferably provides at least one of coordination and financial arrangements between one or more of a broadcast facility  100  (FIG. 1) a user, a supplier of goods or services  1066  and various elements of communication facility  130  (FIG. 1) such as database  126 , server  119  and telephone center  124 . Though it is appreciated that the facilitator  1068  may provide payment arrangements between two or more of a broadcast facility  100  (FIG. 1), a user, a supplier of goods or services  1066  and an advertiser.  
         [0302]    In the illustrated embodiment of FIG. 8D, the radio broadcast facility  100  (FIG. 1), typically a digital broadcast facility, includes a voice to data processor  1110 , receiving an audio signal input. Output of processor  1110  and data signal input are supplied to a signal processor  1114 , which combines these outputs with suitable synthesis therebetween and supplies a combined output to a transmitter  1116 .  
         [0303]    As illustrated in FIG. 1, the digitized broadcast message, preferably includes an audible audio content portion, and an inaudible non-audio content portion.  
         [0304]    The broadcast message may be received, for example, by a radio  106  (FIG. 1), typically located in a vehicle. As seen in FIG. 8D, the radio is a non-standard radio including a signal receiver  1120  which outputs to a signal processor  1122 . The processed signal is delivered to a signal separator  1124  which is operative to separate the received signal into audio and data portions which are processed respectively by a data to voice processor  1126  and a data signal separator  1128 . The output of the data to voice processor  1126  may be heard by a user via a speaker, such as speaker  110  (FIG. 1).  
         [0305]    The output of the signal processor  1124  is supplied to a data signal separator  1128  which may provide a visible data output to a suitable radio display, such as display  112  (FIG. 1). It is a particular feature of the present invention that the data signal separator  1128  also provides a non-audio, non-visible output, which may be provided to a transceiver  1138 .  
         [0306]    The non-audio, non-visible output transmitted by transceiver  1138  may be received by a transceiver  1140  forming part of a mobile communicator  114  (FIG. 1). It is appreciated that transceivers  1138  and  1140  and the communication link therebetween may be replaced by any other suitable wired or wireless communication link, such as a ohmic connection, an IR communication link, a Bluetooth communication link or another short range communication link.  
         [0307]    The output of transceiver  1140  may be supplied to a storage medium  1142  but need not necessarily be, governed by a switch  1144  controlled by an operator using an operator interface  1146 .

         [0309]    Additionally or alternatively, a switch  1148  may be provided at an output of storage medium  1142  and may be actuated by an operator using operator interface  1146 . The operation of switch  1148  may be similar to that of switch  1144 , the only difference in their effect being that switch  1148  governs storage of the non-audio, non-visible output, while switch  1144  governs supply thereof to a data signal processor  1150 .  
         [0310]    The output of the data signal processor  1150  may be supplied to a data signal separator  1152 , which may provide a visible output which may be displayed on a screen  115  of the mobile communicator  114  and also provides a contact information output, which may be stored in a signal storage medium  1154 .

         [0312]    Additionally or alternatively, a switch  1160  may be provided at an output of storage medium  1154  and may be actuated by an operator using operator interface  1158 . The operation of switch  1160  may be similar to that of switch  1156 , the only difference in their effect being that switch  1156  governs storage of the contact information output, while switch  1160  governs supply thereof to a transceiver  1162 .  
         [0313]    A GPS device  1155  may be associated with the mobile communicator  114  and may transmit the user&#39;s geographic coordinates to the server  119  via the transceiver  1162 .  
         [0314]    Transceiver  1162  preferably includes a wireless modem which is enabled to communicate via the Internet with server  119  (FIG. 1), which in turn communicates with database  126  (FIG. 1).  
         [0315]    In the illustrated embodiment, which is described functionally hereinabove with reference to FIG. 1, the user may at any time actuate the mobile communicator  114  to establish contact via transceiver  1162  on the basis of part or all of the contact information output from data signal separator  1152 .  
         [0316]    [0316]FIG. 1 shows an example wherein a user actuates the mobile communicator  114 , typically embodied as a web-enabled wireless personal digital assistant, to access a web site identified by the product-specific web address “WWW.MWATER/FREE.COM” which forms part of the content information output. In the illustrated embodiment, this access is achieved via a non product-specific portal, embodied in server  119 , which is accessed via the Internet by use of a non product-specific web address, such as “WWW.PORTAL.COM”. The product-specific web address may be broadcast as part of content portion  104  (FIG. 1) or otherwise. Alternatively the non product-specific web address need not be broadcast and may stored in the mobile communicator  114 , such as by means of a cookie.  
         [0317]    Once the user has accessed the web site identified by the web address “WWW.MWATER/FREE.COM”, the user may obtain information or, as shown in FIG. 1, enter into any appropriate commercial transaction, such as one which results in water being delivered to the residence of the user.  
         [0318]    In accordance with a preferred embodiment of the present invention, database  126  may receive all or part of the content information output from data signal separator  1152  via a computer network communication, and from data signal processor  1150 . Database  126  is preferably operative to collect and correlate user information and activities in connection with given contact information and to communicate with a facilitator  1164 . The facilitator  1164  may have multiple functionalities which may be combined in a single entity or divided among various separate entities. The facilitator preferably interfaces among and between a broadcast facility  100  (FIG. 1) a user, a supplier of goods or services  1166  and various elements of communication facility  130  (FIG. 1) such as database  126 , server  119  and telephone center  124 . The facilitator  1164  may be operated by the operator of communication facility  130  or by another entity.  
         [0319]    The facilitator  1164  preferably provides at least one of coordination and financial arrangements between one or more of a broadcast facility  100  (FIG. 1) a user, a supplier of goods or services  1166  and various elements of communication facility  130  (FIG. 1) such as database  126 , server  119  and telephone center  124 . Though it is appreciated that the facilitator  1164  may provide payment arrangements between two or more of a broadcast facility  100  (FIG. 1), a user, a supplier of goods or services  1166  and an advertiser.  
         [0320]    In the illustrated embodiment of FIG. 8E, the radio broadcast facility  100  (FIG. 1), typically a FM broadcast facility having subcarrier broadcast functionality, such as via a RDS, RBDS or a DARC protocol, includes an audio signal processor  1210 , receiving an audio signal input, as well as a data signal processor  1212 , receiving a data signal input. Outputs of processors  1210  and  1212  are supplied to a signal synchronizer  1214 , which combines these outputs with suitable synchronization therebetween and supplies a combined output to a transmitter  1216 .  
         [0321]    As illustrated in FIG. 1, the broadcast message, preferably includes an audible audio content portion, and an inaudible non-audio content portion.  
         [0322]    The broadcast message may be received, for example, by a radio  106  (FIG. 1), typically located in a vehicle. As seen in FIG. 8E, the radio may be a conventional RDS enabled radio, such as a JVC CH-KP950R, including a signal receiver  1220  which outputs to a signal separator  1222 , which is operative to separate the received signal into audio and data portions which are processed respectively by an audio signal processor  1224  and a data signal processor  1226 . The output of the audio signal processor  1224  may be heard by a user via a speaker, such as speaker  110  (FIG. 1) and the output of the data signal processor  1226  may provide a visible data output to a suitable radio display, such as display  112  (FIG. 1). Alternatively, radio  126  may be a conventional non-RDS enabled radio, such as a Pioneer KEH-1900, which does not include a signal separator or a data signal processor.  
         [0323]    It is typical of conventional radios  106  that a local signal is transmitted from the signal receiver  1220  over short distances typically  3  feet. In accordance with a preferred embodiment of the present invention, this local signal is employed by a wireless interface assembly  1227  to provide contact information from the radio  106  to the mobile communicator  114  (FIG. 1).  
         [0324]    Interface assembly  1227 , which is not shown in FIG. 1, may reside anywhere within the local signal reception range of the radio  106  and may be a separate element or may be integrated with a mobile communicator or in any other suitable vehicle element.  
         [0325]    Interface assembly  1227  preferably includes a local signal receiver  1228 , which receives the local signal from radio  106  and configures a tuner  1226  to the identical frequency of the signal receiver  1220  in radio  106  (FIG. 1). This allows the signal receiver  1228  to receive the identical broadcast message as signal receiver  1220 . The tuned frequency number can be made visible on a display such as an LED display  1229 . It is a particular feature of the present invention that the frequency of the tuner  1226  may be manually locked by means of a frequency lock  1230  via a switch  1232  operated by an operator interface  1234 , typically a touch button.  
         [0326]    The signal receiver  1228  provides the signal received from the transmitter  1216  to a signal separator  1236  that isolates therefrom a non-audio, non-visible output. The non-audio, non-visible output is received by a data signal processor  1238  which outputs to a data signal separator  1240 , the output of which may be stored in a signal storage medium  1242 . Such storage may be but need not necessarily be governed by a switch  1244  controlled by an operator using an operator interface  1246 .  
         [0327]    In the example shown in FIG. 8E, the operator interface  1246  may be speech actuated, such that when the operator says “CAPTURE” as illustrated in FIG. 1, the non-audio, non-visible output of data signal separator is stored in storage medium  1242 .  
         [0328]    Additionally or alternatively, a switch  1248  may be provided at an output of storage medium  1242  and may be actuated by an operator using operator interface  1246 . The operation of switch  1248  may be similar to that of switch  1244 , the only difference in their effect being that switch  1244  governs storage of the non-audio, non-visible output, while switch  1248  governs supply thereof to a transceiver  1250 .  
         [0329]    The non-audio, non-visible output transmitted by transceiver  1250  may be received by a transceiver  1260  forming part of a mobile communicator  114  (FIG. 1). It is appreciated that transceivers  1250  and  1260  and the communication link therebetween may be replaced by any other suitable wired or wireless communication link, such as a ohmic connection, an IR communication link, a Bluetooth communication link or another short range communication link.  
         [0330]    The output of transceiver  1260  is preferably supplied to a data signal processor  1262 . The output of the data signal processor  1262  may be supplied to a data signal separator  1264 , which may provide a visible data output which may be displayed on a screen  115  of the mobile communicator  114  and also provides a contact information output, which may be stored in a signal storage medium  1266 . In the context of FIG. 1, the contact information output may include, for example, a web address such as “WWW.MWATER/FREE.com” and/or a telephone number. Such storage may be, but need not necessarily be, governed by a switch  1268  controlled by an operator using an operator interface  1270 .  
         [0331]    In the example shown in FIG. 1, the operator interface  1270  may be speech actuated, such that when the operator says “CONTACT” as illustrated in FIG. 1, the contact information output is stored in storage medium  1266 .  
         [0332]    Additionally or alternatively, a switch  1272  may be provided at an output of storage medium  1266  and may be actuated by an operator using operator interface  1270 . The operation of switch  1272  may be similar to that of switch  1268 , the only difference in their effect being that switch  1268  governs storage of the contact information output, while switch  1272  governs supply thereof to a transceiver  1274 .  
         [0333]    A GPS device  1255  may be associated with the mobile communicator  114  and may transmit the user&#39;s geographic coordinates to the server  119  via the transceiver  1274 .  
         [0334]    Transceiver  1274  preferably includes a wireless modem which is enabled to communicate via the Internet with server  119  (FIG. 1), which in turn communicates with database  126  (FIG. 1).  
         [0335]    In the illustrated embodiment, which is described functionally hereinabove with reference to FIG. 1, the user may at any time actuate the mobile communicator  114  to establish contact via transceiver  1274  on the basis of part or all of the contact information output from data signal separator  1264 . FIG. 1 shows an example wherein a user actuates the mobile communicator  114 , typically embodied as a web-enabled wireless personal digital assistant, to access a web site identified by the web address “WWW.MWATER/FREE.COM” which forms part of the content information output. In the illustrated embodiment, this access is achieved via a portal, embodied in server  119 , which is accessed via the Internet by use of a non product-specific web address, such as “WWW.PORTAL.COM”. The non product-specific web address need not be broadcast and is typically stored in the mobile communicator  114 , such as by means of a cookie. Alternatively, the non product-specific web address may be broadcast as part of content portion  104  (FIG. 1) or otherwise.  
         [0336]    Once the user has accessed the web site identified by the web address “WWW.MWATER/FREE.COM”, the user may obtain information or, as shown in FIG. 1, enter into any appropriate commercial transaction, such as one which results in water being delivered to the residence of the user.  
         [0337]    In accordance with a preferred embodiment of the present invention, database  126  may receive all or part of the content information output from data signal separator  1264  via a computer network communication, and from data signal processor  1262 . Database  126  is preferably operative to collect and correlate user information and activities in connection with given contact information and to communicate with a facilitator  1276 . The facilitator  1276  may have multiple functionalities which may be combined in a single entity or divided among various separate entities. The facilitator preferably interfaces among and between a broadcast facility  100  (FIG. 1) a user, a supplier of goods or services  1278  and various elements of communication facility  130  (FIG. 1) such as database  126 , server  119  and telephone center  124 . The facilitator  1276  may be operated by the operator of communication facility  130  or by another entity.  
         [0338]    The facilitator  1276  preferably provides at least one of coordination and financial arrangements between one or more of a broadcast facility  100  (FIG. 1) a user, a supplier of goods or services  1278  and various elements of communication facility  130  (FIG. 1) such as database  126 , server  119  and telephone center  124 . Though it is appreciated that the facilitator  1276  may provide payment arrangements between two or more of a broadcast facility  100  (FIG. 1), a user, a supplier of goods or services  1278  and an advertiser.  
         [0339]    In the illustrated embodiment of FIG. 8F, the radio broadcast facility  100  (FIG. 1), typically a FM broadcast facility having subcarrier broadcast functionality, such as via a RDS, RBDS or a DARC protocol, includes an audio signal processor  1310 , receiving an audio signal input, as well as a data signal processor  1312 , receiving a data signal input. Outputs of processors  1310  and  1312  are supplied to a signal synchronizer  1314 , which combines these outputs with suitable synchronization therebetween and supplies a combined output to a transmitter  1316 .  
         [0340]    As illustrated in FIG. 1, the broadcast message, preferably includes an audible audio content portion and an inaudible non-audio subcarrier content portion.  
         [0341]    The broadcast message may be received, for example, by a radio  106  (FIG. 1), typically located in a vehicle. As seen in FIG. 8F, the radio is a standard radio including a signal receiver  1320  which outputs to a signal separator  1322 , which is operative to separate the received signal into audio and data portions which are processed respectively by an audio signal processor  1324  and a data signal processor  1326 . The output of the audio signal processor  1324  may be heard by a user via a speaker, such as speaker  110  (FIG. 1) and the output of the data signal processor  1326  may provide a visible data output to a suitable radio display, such as display  112  (FIG. 1).  
         [0342]    It is typical of such radios  106  as illustrated in FIG. 1 that a local signal is transmitted from the signal receiver  1320  over short distances, typically  3 ft. This local signal is detected by a local signal tuner device  1322  not shown in FIG. 1 but that may reside in the radio  106  FIG. 1), in the mobile communicator  114  (FIG. 1), or in close proximity to these.  
         [0343]    The local signal issuing from radio  106  is detected by a local signal receiver  1324  that configures a tuner  1326  to the identical frequency of the signal receiver  1320  in radio  106  (FIG. 1). This allows the signal receiver  1328  to receive the identical broadcast message as signal receiver  1320 . The tuned frequency number can be made visible on a display such as an LED display (not shown). It is a particular feature of the present invention that the frequency of the tuner  1326  maybe manually locked by means of a frequency lock  1330  via a switch  1332  operated by an operator interface  1334 , typically a touch button.  
         [0344]    The signal receiver  1328  passes on the signal received from the transmitter  1316  to a signal separator  1336  that separates a non-audio, non-visible output from the audio signal. The non-audio, non-visible output is received by a data signal processor  1338  and is subsequently received by a data signal separator  1340  the output of which is received by a transceiver  1342 .  
         [0345]    The non-audio, non-visible output transmitted by transceiver  1342  may be received by a transceiver  1344  forming part of a mobile communicator  114  (FIG. 1). It is appreciated that transceivers  1342  and  1344  and the communication link therebetween may be replaced by any other suitable wired or wireless communication link, such as a ohmic connection, an IR communication link, a Bluetooth communication link or another short range communication link.  
         [0346]    The output from the transceiver  1344  may be stored in a signal storage medium  1346 . Such storage may be but need not necessarily be controlled by a switch  1348  controlled by an operator using an operator interface  1350 .  
         [0347]    In the example shown in FIG. 1, the operator interface  1350  may be speech actuated, such that when the operator says “CAPTURE” as illustrated in FIG. 1, the non-audio, non-visible output of data signal separator is stored in storage medium  1346 .  
         [0348]    Additionally or alternatively, a switch  1352  may be provided at an output of storage medium  1346  and may be actuated by an operator using operator interface  1350 . The operation of switch  1352  may be similar to that of switch  1348 , the only difference in their effect being that switch  1348  governs storage of the non-audio, non-visible output, while switch  1352  governs supply thereof to a data signal processor  1362 .  
         [0349]    The output of the data signal processor  1362  may be supplied to a data signal separator  1364 , which may provide a visible data output which may be displayed on a screen of the mobile communicator  114  and also provides a contact information output, which may be stored in a signal storage medium  1366 . In the context of FIG. 1, the contact information output may include, for example, a web address such as “WWW.MWATER/FREE.com” and/or a telephone number. Such storage may be, but need not necessarily be, governed by a switch  1368  controlled by an operator using an operator interface  1370 .  
         [0350]    In the example shown in FIG. 1, the operator interface  1370  may be speech actuated, such that when the operator says “CONTACT” as illustrated in FIG. 1, the contact information output is stored in storage medium  1366 .  
         [0351]    Additionally or alternatively, a switch  1372  may be provided at an output of storage medium  1366  and may be actuated by an operator using operator interface  1370 . The operation of switch  1372  may be similar to that of switch  1368 , the only difference in their effect being that switch  1368  governs storage of the contact information output, while switch  1372  governs supply thereof to a transceiver  1374 .  
         [0352]    A GPS device  1375  may be associated with the mobile communicator  114  and may transmit the user&#39;s geographic coordinates to the server  119  via the transceiver  1374 .  
         [0353]    Transceiver  1374  preferably includes a wireless modem which is enabled to communicate via the Internet with server  119  (FIG. 1), which in turn communicates with database  126  (FIG. 1).  
         [0354]    In the illustrated embodiment, which is described functionally hereinabove with reference to FIG. 1, the user may at any time actuate the mobile communicator  114  to establish contact via transceiver  1374  on the basis of part or all of the contact information output from data signal separator  1364 .  
         [0355]    [0355]FIG. 1 shows an example wherein a user actuates the mobile communicator  114 , typically embodied as a web-enabled wireless personal digital assistant, to access a web site identified by the web address “WWW.MWATER/FREE.COM” which forms part of the content information output.

The non product-specific web address need not be broadcast and is typically stored in the mobile communicator  114 , such as by means of a cookie. Alternatively, the non product-specific web address may be broadcast as part of content portion  104  (FIG. 1) or otherwise.  
         [0356]    Once the user has accessed the web site identified by the web address “WWW.MWATER/FREE.COM”, the user may obtain information or, as shown in FIG. 1, enter into any appropriate commercial transaction, such as one which results in water being delivered to the residence of the user.  
         [0357]    In accordance with a preferred embodiment of the present invention, database  126  may receive all or part of the content information output from data signal separator  1364  via a computer network communication, and from data signal processor  1362 . Database  126  is preferably operative to collect and correlate user information and activities in connection with given contact information and to communicate with a facilitator  1378 . The facilitator  1378  may have multiple functionalities which may be combined in a single entity or divided among various separate entities. The facilitator preferably interfaces among and between a broadcast facility  100  (FIG. 1) a user, a supplier of goods or services  1376  and various elements of communication facility  130  (FIG. 1) such as database  126 , server  119  and telephone center  124 . The facilitator  1378  may be operated by the operator of communication facility  130  or by another entity.  
         [0358]    The facilitator  1378  preferably provides at least one of coordination and financial arrangements between one or more of a broadcast facility  100  (FIG. 1) a user, a supplier of goods or services  1376  and various elements of communication facility  130  (FIG. 1) such as database  126 , server  119  and telephone center  124 . Though it is appreciated that the facilitator  1378  may provide payment arrangements between two or more of a broadcast facility  100  (FIG. 1), a user, a supplier of goods or services  1376  and an advertiser.  
         [0359]    Reference is now made to FIGS. 9A, 9B,  9 C,  9 D,  9 E &amp;  9 F are simplified functional block diagrams of six alternative embodiments of the system of FIG. 2. As seen in FIG. 9A, there is provided a system and methodology of the type shown in FIG. 2, wherein a commercial message is broadcast by a radio broadcast facility, such as an FM or digital broadcast facility.  
         [0360]    In the illustrated embodiment of FIG. 9A, the radio broadcast facility  200  (FIG. 2), typically a FM broadcast facility having subcarrier broadcast functionality, such as via a RDS, RBDS or a DARC protocol, includes an audio signal processor  1410 , receiving an audio signal input, as well as a data signal processor  1412 , receiving a data signal input. Outputs of processors  1410  and  1412  are supplied to a signal synchronizer  1414 , which combines these outputs with suitable synchronization therebetween and supplies a combined output to a transmitter  1416 .  
         [0361]    As illustrated in FIG. 2, the broadcast message preferably includes an audible audio content portion and an inaudible non-audio content portion.  
         [0362]    The broadcast message may be received, for example, by a radio  206  (FIG. 2), typically located in a vehicle. As seen in FIG. 9A, the radio is a non-standard radio including a signal receiver  1420  which outputs to a signal separator  1422 , which is operative to separate the received signal into audio and data portions which are processed respectively by an audio signal processor  1424  and a data signal processor  1426 . The output of the audio signal processor  1424  may be heard by a user via a speaker, such as speaker  208  (FIG. 2).  
         [0363]    The output of the data signal processor  1426  is supplied to a data signal separator  1428  which may provide a visible output to a suitable radio display, such as display  209  (FIG. 2). It is a particular feature of the present invention that the data signal separator  1428  also provides a non-audio, non-visible output, which may be stored in a signal storage medium  1430 . Such storage may be, but need not necessarily be, governed by a switch  1432  controlled by an operator using an operator interface  1434 .  
         [0364]    In the example shown in FIG. 9A, the operator interface  1434  may be speech actuated, such that when the operator says “CAPTURE” as illustrated in FIG. 2, the non-audio, non-visible output of data signal separator  1428  is stored in storage medium  1430 .  
         [0365]    Additionally or alternatively, a switch  1436  may be provided at an output of storage medium  1430  and may be actuated by an operator using operator interface  1434 . The operation of switch  1436  may be similar to that of switch  1432 , the only difference in their effect being that switch  1432  governs storage of the non-audio, non-visible output, while switch  1436  governs supply thereof to a transceiver  1438 .  
         [0366]    The non-audio, non-visible output transmitted by transceiver  1438  may be received by a transceiver  1440  forming part of a mobile communicator  214  (FIG. 2). It is appreciated that transceivers  1438  and  1440  and the communication link therebetween may be replaced by any other suitable wired or wireless communication link, such as a ohmic connection, an IR communication link, a Bluetooth communication link or another short range communication link.  
         [0367]    The output of transceiver  1440  is preferably supplied to a data signal processor  1442 . The output of the data signal processor  1442  may be supplied to a data signal separator  1444 , which may provide a visible data output which may be displayed on a screen  216  of the mobile communicator  214 . The output from the data signal separator  1444  is typically a product-specific code which, in the context of FIG. 2 is shown as #1234#, and which may be stored in a signal storage medium  1446 . As distinct from the embodiment in FIG. 8A, non product-specific contact information is not necessarily contained within the non-audio, non-visible output and may be provided by means other than the inaudible non-audio content portion, such as by a cookie. The non product-specific contact information may also be stored in signal storage medium  1446 . In the context of FIG. 2, the non-product specific contact information may include, for example, a web address such as “WWW.PORTAL.COM” and/or a telephone number, such as “1-800-864-2222”. Such storage may be, but need not necessarily be, governed by a switch  1448  controlled by an operator using an operator interface  1450 .  
         [0368]    In the example shown in FIG. 9A, the operator interface  1450  may be speech actuated, such that when the operator says “CONTACT” as illustrated in FIG. 2, the product-specific contact information output of data signal separator  1444  is stored in storage medium  1446 .  
         [0369]    Additionally or alternatively, a switch  1452  may be provided at an output of storage medium  1446  and may be actuated by an operator using operator interface  1450 . The operation of switch  1452  may be similar to that of switch  1448 , the only difference in their effect being that switch  1448  governs storage of the product-specific contact information output, while switch  1452  governs supply of both the product-specific contact information and the non product-specific to a transceiver  1454 .  
         [0370]    Transceiver  1454  preferably includes a wireless modem which is enabled to communicate via the Internet with a server  213  (FIG. 2), which in turn communicates with database  211  (FIG. 2).

         [0372]    In the illustrated embodiment, which is described functionally hereinabove with reference to FIG. 2, the user may at any time actuate the mobile communicator  214  (FIG. 2) to establish contact via transceiver  1454  on the basis of part or all of the product-specific contact information output from data signal separator  1444  and the non product-specific contact information preferably stored in the storage medium  1446 .  
         [0373]    [0373]FIG. 2 shows an example wherein a user actuates the mobile communicator  214 , typically embodied as a web-enabled wireless personal digital assistant, to access a product-specific web site  230  (FIG. 2) identified by the web address WWW.MWATER/FREE.COM. In the illustrated embodiment, this access is achieved via a non product-specific server, embodied in server  213 , which is accessed via the Internet by use of a non product-specific web address, such as “WWW.PORTAL.COM”.  
         [0374]    Upon accessing the non product-specific web server  213 , the product-specific contact information, such as a code, may be transferred to the database  211  via the pathway designated as “A”. The code may be matched against the full product-specific information, shown as  208  in FIG. 2. The product-specific contact information may be transferred from the database  211  via the pathway designated as “B” to the non product-specific server  213 . The non product-specific server  213  allows contact to be established between the user and a product-specific server  217  (FIG. 2). Once the user has accessed the product-specific web site identified by the web address “WWW.MWATER/FREE.COM”, the user may obtain information or, as shown in FIG. 2, enter into any appropriate commercial transaction, such as one which results in water being delivered to the residence of the user.  
         [0375]    In accordance with a preferred embodiment of the present invention, database  211  may receive all or part of the content information output from data signal separator  1444  via a computer network communication, as from data signal processor  1412 . Database  211  is preferably operative to collect and correlate user information and activities in connection with given contact information and to communicate with a facilitator  1456 . The facilitator  1456  may have multiple functionalities which may be combined in a single entity or divided among various separate entities. The facilitator  1456  preferably interfaces among and between a broadcast facility  200  (FIG. 2) a user, a supplier of goods or services  1458  and various elements of communication facility  226  (FIG. 2) such as database  211 , server  213  and telephone center  224 . The facilitator  1456  may be operated by the operator of communication facility  226  or by another entity.  
         [0376]    The facilitator  1456  preferably provides at least one of coordination and financial arrangements between one or more of a broadcast facility  200  (FIG. 2) a user, a supplier of goods or services  1458  and various elements of communication facility  226  (FIG. 2) such as database  211 , server  213  and telephone center  224 . Thus it is appreciated that the facilitator may provide payment arrangements between two or more of a broadcast facility  200  (FIG. 2), a user, a supplier of goods or services  1458  and an advertiser.  
         [0377]    Turning to FIG. 9B, there is provided a system and methodology of the type shown in FIG. 2, wherein a message, here a commercial message, is broadcast, typically by a radio broadcast facility, such as an FM broadcast facility.

In the context of FIG. 2, the non-product specific contact information may include, for example, a web address such as “WWW.PORTAL.COM” and/or a telephone number, such as 1-800-864-2222. Such storage may be, but need not necessarily be, governed by a switch  1558  controlled by an operator using an operator interface  1560 .  
         [0387]    In the example shown in FIG. 9B, the operator interface  1560  may be speech actuated, such that when the operator says “CONTACT” as illustrated in FIG. 2, the product-specific contact information output of data signal separator  1554  is stored in storage medium  1556 .  
         [0388]    Additionally or alternatively, a switch  1562  may be provided at an output of storage medium  1556  and may be actuated by an operator using operator interface  1560 . The operation of switch  1562  may be similar to that of switch  1558 , the only difference in their effect being that switch  1558  governs storage of the product-specific contact information output, while switch  1562  governs supply of both the product-specific contact information and the non product-specific to a transceiver  1564 .  
         [0389]    Transceiver  1564  preferably includes a wireless modem which is enabled to communicate via the Internet with a server  213  (FIG. 2), which in turn communicates with database  211  (FIG. 2).  
         [0390]    A GPS device  1565  may be associated with the mobile communicator may transmit the user&#39;s geographic coordinates to the server.  
         [0391]    In the illustrated embodiment, which is described functionally hereinabove with reference to FIG. 2, the user may at any time actuate the mobile communicator  214  (FIG. 2) to establish contact via transceiver  1564  on the basis of part or all of the product-specific contact information output from data signal separator  1554  and the non product-specific contact information preferably stored in the storage medium  1556 .  
         [0392]    [0392]FIG. 2 shows an example wherein a user actuates the mobile communicator  214 , typically embodied as a web-enabled wireless personal digital assistant, to access a product-specific web site  230  (FIG. 2) identified by the web address WWW.MWATER/FREE.COM. In the illustrated embodiment, this access is achieved via a non product-specific server, embodied in server  213 , which is accessed via the Internet by use of a non product-specific web address, such as “WWW.PORTAL.COM”.  
         [0393]    Upon accessing the non product-specific web server  213 , the product-specific contact information, such as a code, may be transferred to the database  211  via the pathway designated as A. The code may be matched against the full product-specific information, shown as  210  in FIG. 2. The product-specific contact information may be transferred from the database  211  via the pathway designated as B to the non product-specific server  213 . The non product-specific server  213  allows contact to be established between the user and a product-specific server  217  (FIG. 2). Once the user has accessed the product-specific web site identified by the web address “WWW.MWATER/FREE.COM”, the user may obtain information or, as shown in FIG. 2, enter into any appropriate commercial transaction, such as one which results in water being delivered to the residence of the user.  
         [0394]    In accordance with a preferred embodiment of the present invention, database  211  may receive all or part of the content information output from data signal separator  1554  via a computer network communication, as from data signal processor  1512 . Database  211  is preferably operative to collect and correlate user information and activities in connection with given contact information and to communicate with a facilitator  1567 . The facilitator  1567  may have multiple functionalities which may be combined in a single entity or divided among various separate entities. The facilitator  1567  preferably interfaces among and between a broadcast facility  200  (FIG. 2) a user, a supplier of goods or services  1568  and various elements of communication facility  226  (FIG. 2) such as database  211 , server  213  and telephone center  224 . The facilitator  1567  may be operated by the operator of communication facility  226  or by another entity.  
         [0395]    The facilitator preferably provides at least one of coordination and financial arrangements between one or more of a broadcast facility  200  (FIG. 2) a user, a supplier of goods or services  1568  and various elements of communication facility  226  (FIG. 2) such as database  211 , server  213  and telephone center  224 . Thus it is appreciated that the facilitator  1567  may provide payment arrangements between two or more of a broadcast facility  200  (FIG. 2), a user, a supplier of goods or services  1568  and an advertiser.  
         [0396]    In the illustrated embodiment of FIG. 9C, the radio broadcast facility  200  (FIG. 2), typically a digital broadcast facility, includes a voice to data processor  1610 , receiving an audio signal input. The output of processor  1610  and a data signal input are supplied to a digital signal processor  1614 , which combines these outputs with suitable synchronization therebetween and supplies a combined output to a digital transmitter  1616 .  
         [0397]    As illustrated in FIG. 2, the broadcast message, preferably includes an audible audio content portion, and an inaudible non-audio content portion.  
         [0398]    The digital broadcast message may be received, for example, by a radio  206  (FIG. 2), typically located in a vehicle. As seen in FIG. 9C, the radio is a non-standard digital radio including a digital signal receiver  1620  which outputs to a digital signal processor  1622 . The processed signal is delivered to a digital signal separator  1624  which is operative to separate the received digital signal into audio and data portions which are processed respectively by a data to voice processor  1626  and a data signal separator  1628 . The output of the data to voice processor  1626  may be heard by a user via a speaker, such as speaker  208  (FIG. 2).  
         [0399]    The output of the data signal separator  1628  may provide a visible data output to a suitable radio display, such as display  209  (FIG. 2). It is a particular feature of the present invention that the data signal separator  1628  also provides a non-audio, non-visible output, which may be stored in a signal storage medium  1630 . Such storage may be, but need not necessarily be, governed by a switch  1632  controlled by an operator using an operator interface  1634 .  
         [0400]    In the example shown in FIG. 2, the operator interface  1634  may be speech actuated, such that when the operator says “CAPTURE” as illustrated in FIG. 2, the non-audio, non-visible output of data signal separator is stored in storage medium  1630 .  
         [0401]    Additionally or alternatively, a switch  1636  may be provided at an output of storage medium  1630  and may be actuated by an operator using operator interface  1634 . The operation of switch  1636  may be similar to that of switch  1632 , the only difference in their effect being that switch  1632  governs storage of the non-audio, non-visible output, while switch  1636  governs supply thereof to a transceiver  1638 .  
         [0402]    The non-audio, non-visible output transmitted by transceiver  1638  may be received by a transceiver  1640  forming part of a mobile communicator  214  (FIG. 2). It is appreciated that transceivers  1638  and  1640  and the communication link therebetween may be replaced by any other suitable wired or wireless communication link, such as a ohmic connection, an IR communication link, a Bluetooth communication link or another short range communication link.  
         [0403]    The output of transceiver  1640  is preferably supplied to a data signal processor  1642 . The output of the data signal processor  1642  may be supplied to a data signal separator  1644 , which may provide a visible data output which may be displayed on a screen  216  of the mobile communicator  214 . The output from the data signal separator  1644  is typically a product-specific code which, in the context of FIG. 2 is shown as #1234#, and which may be stored in a signal storage medium  1646 . As distinct from the embodiment in FIG. 8C, non product-specific contact information is not necessarily contained within the non-audio, non-visible output and may be provided by means other than the inaudible non-audio content portion, such as by a coolie. The non product-specific contact information may also be stored in signal storage medium  1646 . In the context of FIG. 2, the non-product specific contact information may include, for example, a web address such as “WWW.PORTAL.COM” and/or a telephone number, such as 1-800-864-2222. Such storage may be, but need not necessarily be, governed by a switch  1648  controlled by an operator using an operator interface  1650 .  
         [0404]    In the example shown in FIG. 9C, the operator interface  1650  may be speech actuated, such that when the operator says “CONTACT” as illustrated in FIG. 2, the product-specific contact information output of data signal separator  1644  is stored in storage medium  1646 .  
         [0405]    Additionally or alternatively, a switch  1652  may be provided at an output of storage medium  1646  and may be actuated by an operator using operator interface  1650 . The operation of switch  1652  may be similar to that of switch  1648 , the only difference in their effect being that switch  1648  governs storage of the product-specific contact information output, while switch  1652  governs supply of both the product-specific contact information and the non product-specific to a transceiver  1654 .  
         [0406]    Transceiver  1654  preferably includes a wireless modem which is enabled to communicate via the Internet with a server  213  (FIG. 2), which in turn communicates with database  211  (FIG. 2).  
         [0407]    A GPS device  1655  may be associated with the mobile communicator may transmit the user&#39;s geographic coordinates to the server.  
         [0408]    In the illustrated embodiment, which is described functionally hereinabove with reference to FIG. 2, the user may at any time actuate the mobile communicator  214  (FIG. 2) to establish contact via transceiver  1654  on the basis of part or all of the product-specific contact information output from data signal separator  1644  and the non product-specific contact information preferably stored in the storage medium  1646 .  
         [0409]    [0409]FIG. 2 shows an example wherein a user actuates the mobile communicator  214 , typically embodied as a web-enabled wireless personal digital assistant, to access a product-specific web site  217  (FIG. 2) identified by the web address WWW.MWATER/FREE.COM. In the illustrated embodiment, this access is achieved via a non product-specific server, embodied in server  213 , which is accessed via the Internet by use of a non product-specific web address, such as “WWW.PORTAL.COM”.  
         [0410]    Upon accessing the non product-specific web server  213 , the product-specific contact information, such as a code, may be transferred to the database  211  via the pathway designated as A. The code may be matched against the full product-specific information, shown as  210  in FIG. 2. The product-specific contact information may be transferred from the database  211  via the pathway designated as B to the non product-specific server  217 . The non product-specific server  213  allows contact to be established between the user and a product-specific server  228  (FIG. 2). Once the user has accessed the product-specific web site identified by the web address “WWW.MWATER/FREE.COM”, the user may obtain information or, as shown in FIG. 2, enter into any appropriate commercial transaction, such as one which results in water being delivered to the residence of the user.  
         [0411]    In accordance with a preferred embodiment of the present invention, database  211  may receive all or part of the content information output from data signal separator  1644  via a computer network communication, as from data signal processor  1612 . Database  211  is preferably operative to collect and correlate user information and activities in connection with given contact information and to communicate with a facilitator  1656 . The facilitator  1656  may have multiple functionalities which may be combined in a single entity or divided among various separate entities. The facilitator  1656  preferably interfaces among and between a broadcast facility  200  (FIG. 2) a user, a supplier of goods or services  1658  and various elements of communication facility  226  (FIG. 2) such as database  211 , server  213  and telephone center  224 . The facilitator  1656  may be operated by the operator of communication facility  226  or by another entity.  
         [0412]    The facilitator  1656  preferably provides at least one of coordination and financial arrangements between one or more of a broadcast facility  200  (FIG. 2) a user, a supplier of goods or services  1658  and various elements of communication facility  226  (FIG. 2) such as database  211 , server  213  and telephone center  224 . Thus it is appreciated that the facilitator may provide payment arrangements between two or more of a broadcast facility  200  (FIG. 2), a user, a supplier of goods or services  1658  and an advertiser.  
         [0413]    In the illustrated embodiment of FIG. 9D, the radio broadcast facility  200  (FIG. 2), typically a digital broadcast facility, includes a voice to data processor  1710 , receiving an audio signal input.

The output from the data signal separator  1728  may be supplied to a storage medium  1730 . It is a particular feature of the present invention that the data signal separator  1728  also provides a non-audio, non-visible output, which may be provided to a transceiver  1738 .  
         [0417]    The non-audio, non-visible output transmitted by transceiver  1738  may be received by a transceiver  1740  forming part of a mobile communicator  214  (FIG. 2). It is appreciated that transceivers  1738  and  1740  and the communication link therebetween may be replaced by any other suitable wired or wireless communication link, such as a ohmic connection, an IR communication link, a Bluetooth communication link or another short range communication link.  
         [0418]    The output of transceiver  1740  may be supplied to a storage medium  1742  but need not necessarily be, governed by a switch  1744  controlled by an operator using an operator interface  1746 .  
         [0419]    In the example shown in FIG. 9D, the operator interface  1746  may be speech actuated, such that when the operator says “CAPTURE” as illustrated in FIG. 2, the non-audio, non-visible output of data signal separator is stored in storage medium  1742 .

         [0421]    The output of the data signal processor  1750  may be supplied to a data signal separator  1752 , which may provide a visible data output which may be displayed on a screen  216  of the mobile communicator  214 . The output from the data signal separator  1752  is typically a product-specific code which, in the context of FIG. 2 is shown as #1234#, and which may be stored in a signal storage medium  1756 .

The facilitator  1767  may be operated by the operator of communication facility  226  or by another entity.  
         [0430]    The facilitator preferably provides at least one of coordination and financial arrangements between one or more of a broadcast facility  200  (FIG. 2) a user, a supplier of goods or services  1768  and various elements of communication facility  226  (FIG. 2) such as database  211 , server  213  and telephone center  224 . Thus it is appreciated that the facilitator may provide payment arrangements between two or more of a broadcast facility  200  (FIG. 2), a user, a supplier of goods or services  176 S and an advertiser. In the illustrated embodiment of FIG. 9E, the radio broadcast facility  200  (FIG. 2), typically a FM broadcast facility having subcarrier broadcast functionality, such as via a RDS, RBDS or a DARC protocol, includes an audio signal processor  1810 , receiving an audio signal input, as well as a data signal processor  1812 , receiving a data signal input. Outputs of processors  1810  and  1812  are supplied to a signal synchronizer  1814 , which combines these outputs with suitable synchronization therebetween and supplies a combined output to a transmitter  1816 .  
         [0431]    As illustrated in FIG. 2, the broadcast message, preferably includes an audible audio content portion and an inaudible non-audio content portion.  
         [0432]    The broadcast message may be received, for example, by a radio  206  (FIG. 2), typically located in a vehicle. As seen in FIG. 9E, the radio may be a conventional RDS enabled radio, such as a JVC CH-KP950R, including a signal receiver  1820  which outputs to a signal separator  1822 , which is operative to separate the received signal into audio and data portions which are processed respectively by an audio signal processor  1824  and a data signal processor  1826 . The output of the audio signal processor  1824  may be heard by a user via a speaker, such as speaker  208  (FIG. 2) and the output of the data signal processor  1826  may provide a visible data output to a suitable radio display, such as display  209  (FIG. 2). Alternatively, radio  206  may be a conventional non-RDS enabled radio, such as a Pioneer KEH-1900, which does not include a signal separator or a data signal processor.  
         [0433]    It is typical of conventional radios  206  that a local signal is transmitted from the signal receiver  1820  over short distances typically  3  feet. In accordance with a preferred embodiment of the present invention, this local signal is employed by a wireless interface assembly  1827  to provide contact information from the radio  206  to the mobile communicator  214  (FIG. 2).  
         [0434]    Interface assembly  1827 , which is not shown in FIG. 2, may reside anywhere within the local signal reception range of the radio  206  and may be a separate element or may be integrated with a mobile communicator or in any other suitable vehicle element.  
         [0435]    Interface assembly  1827  preferably includes a local signal receiver  1828 , which receives the local signal from radio  206  and configures a tuner  1829  to the identical frequency of the signal receiver  1820  in radio  206  (FIG. 2). This allows the signal receiver  1830  in the interface assembly to receive the identical broadcast message as signal receiver  1820  from transmitter  1816 . The tuned frequency number can be made visible on a display such as an LED display (not shown). It is a particular feature of the present invention that the frequency of the tuner  1829  may be manually locked by means of a frequency lock  1831  via a switch  1832  operated by an operator interface  1834 , typically a touch button. Alternatively the frequency lock  1831  maybe operated automatically.  
         [0436]    The signal receiver  1828  provides the signal received from the transmitter  1816  to a signal separator  1836  that isolates therefrom a non-audio, non-visible output. A data signal processor receives the non-audio, non-visible output  1838  which outputs to a data signal separator  1840 , the output of which may be stored in a signal storage medium  1842 . Such storage may be but need not necessarily be governed by a switch  1844  controlled by an operator using an operator interface  1846 .  
         [0437]    In the example shown in FIG. 9E, the operator interface  1846  may be speech actuated, such that when the operator says “CAPTURE” as illustrated in FIG. 2, the non-audio, non-visible output of data signal separator is stored in storage medium  1842 .  
         [0438]    Additionally or alternatively, a switch  1848  may be provided at an output of storage medium  1842  and may be actuated by an operator using operator interface  1846 . The operation of switch  1848  may be similar to that of switch  1844 , the only difference in their effect being that switch  1844  governs storage of the non-audio, non-visible output, while switch  1848  governs supply thereof to a transceiver  1850 .  
         [0439]    The non-audio, non-visible output transmitted by transceiver  1850  may be received by a transceiver  1860  forming part of a mobile communicator  214  (FIG. 2). It is appreciated that transceivers  1850  and  1860  and the communication link therebetween may be replaced by any other suitable wired or wireless communication link, such as a ohmic connection, an IR communication link, a Bluetooth communication link or another short range communication link.  
         [0440]    The output of transceiver  1860  is preferably supplied to a data signal processor  1862 . The output of the data signal processor  1862  may be supplied to a data signal separator  1864 , which may provide a visible data output which may be displayed on a screen  216  of the mobile communicator  214 . The output from the data signal separator  1864  is typically a product-specific code which, in the context of FIG. 2 is shown as #1234#, and which may be stored in a signal storage medium  1866 . As distinct from the embodiment in FIG. 8E, non product-specific contact information is not necessarily contained within the non-audio, non-visible output and may be provided by means other than the inaudible non-audio content portion, such as by a cookie. The non product-specific contact information may also be stored in signal storage medium  1866 . In the context of FIG. 2, the non-product specific contact information may include, for example, a web address such as “WWW.PORTAL.COM” and/or a telephone number, such as 1-800-864-2222. Such storage may be, but need not necessarily be, governed by a switch  1868  controlled by an operator using an operator interface  1870 .  
         [0441]    In the example shown in FIG. 9E, the operator interface  1870  may be speech actuated, such that when the operator says “CONTACT” as illustrated in FIG. 2, the product-specific contact information output of data signal separator  1864  is stored in storage medium  1866 .  
         [0442]    Additionally or alternatively, a switch  1872  may be provided at an output of storage medium  1866  and may be actuated by an operator using operator interface  1870 . The operation of switch  1872  may be similar to that of switch  1868 , the only difference in their effect being that switch  1868  governs storage of the product-specific contact information output, while switch  1872  governs supply of both the product-specific contact information and the non product-specific to a transceiver  1874 .  
         [0443]    Transceiver  1874  preferably includes a wireless modem which is enabled to communicate via the Internet with a server  213  (FIG. 2), which in turn communicates with database  211  (FIG. 2).  
         [0444]    A GPS device  1875  may be associated with the mobile communicator may transmit the user&#39;s geographic coordinates to the server.  
         [0445]    In the illustrated embodiment, which is described functionally hereinabove with reference to FIG. 2, the user may at any time actuate the mobile communicator  214  (FIG. 2) to establish contact via transceiver  1874  on the basis of part or all of the product-specific contact information output from data signal separator  1874  and the non product-specific contact information preferably stored in the storage medium  1876 .  
         [0446]    [0446]FIG. 2 shows an example wherein a user actuates the mobile communicator  214 , typically embodied as a web-enabled wireless personal digital assistant, to access a product-specific web site  217  (FIG. 2) identified by the web address WWW.MWATER/FREE.COM. In the illustrated embodiment, this access is achieved via a non product-specific server, embodied in server  213 , which is accessed via the Internet by use of a non product-specific web address, such as “WWW.PORTAL.COM”.  
         [0447]    Upon accessing the non product-specific web server  213 , the product-specific contact information, such as a code, may be transferred to the database  211  via the pathway designated as A. The code may be matched against the full product-specific information, shown as  210  in FIG. 2. The product-specific contact information may be transferred from the database  211  via the pathway designated as B to the non product-specific server  213 . The non product-specific server  213  allows contact to be established between the user and a product-specific server  217  (FIG. 2). Once the user has accessed the product-specific web site identified by the web address “WWW.MWATER/FREE.COM”, the user may obtain information or, as shown in FIG. 2, enter into any appropriate commercial transaction, such as one which results in water being delivered to the residence of the user.  
         [0448]    In accordance with a preferred embodiment of the present invention, database  211  may receive all or part of the content information output from data signal separator  1844  via a computer network communication, and from data signal processor  1812 . Database  211  is preferably operative to collect and correlate user information and activities in connection with given contact information and to communicate with a facilitator  1876 . The facilitator  1876  may have multiple functionalities which may be combined in a single entity or divided among various separate entities. The facilitator preferably interfaces among and between a broadcast facility  200  (FIG. 2) a user, a supplier of goods or services  1878  and various elements of communication facility  226  (FIG. 2) such as database  211 , server  213  and telephone center  224 . The facilitator  1876  may be operated by the operator of communication facility  226  or by another entity.  
         [0449]    The facilitator  1876  preferably provides at least one of coordination and financial arrangements between one or more of a broadcast facility  200  (FIG. 2) a user, a supplier of goods or services  1878  and various elements of communication facility  226  (FIG. 2) such as database  211 , server  213  and telephone center  224 . Thus it is appreciated that the facilitator may provide payment arrangements between two or more of a broadcast facility  200  (FIG. 2), a user, a supplier of goods or services  1878  and an advertiser. In the illustrated embodiment of FIG. 9F, the radio broadcast facility  200  (FIG. 2), typically a FM broadcast facility having subcarrier broadcast functionality, such as via a RDS, RBDS or a DARC protocol, includes an audio signal processor  1910 , receiving an audio signal input, as well as a data signal processor  1912 , receiving a data signal input. Outputs of processors  1910  and  1912  are supplied to a signal synthesizer  1914 , which combines these outputs with suitable synchronization therebetween and supplies a combined output to a transmitter  1916 .  
         [0450]    As illustrated in FIG. 2, the broadcast message, preferably includes an audible audio content portion and an inaudible non-audio content portion.  
         [0451]    The broadcast message may be received, for example, by a radio  206  (FIG. 2), typically located in a vehicle. As seen in FIG. 9F, the radio is a standard radio including a signal receiver  1920  which outputs to a signal separator  1922 , which is operative to separate the received signal into audio and data portions which are processed respectively by an audio signal processor  1924  and a data signal processor  1926 . The output of the audio signal processor  1924  may be heard by a user via a speaker, such as speaker  208  (FIG. 2) and the output of the data signal processor  1926  may provide a visible data output to a suitable radio display, such as display  209  (FIG. 2).  
         [0452]    It is typical of conventional radios  206  that a local signal is transmitted from the signal receiver  1920  over short distances typically 3 feet. In accordance with a preferred embodiment of the present invention, this local signal is employed by a wireless interface assembly  1927  to provide contact information from the radio  206  to the mobile communicator  214  (FIG. 2).  
         [0453]    Interface assembly  1927 , which is not shown in FIG. 2, may reside anywhere within the local signal reception range of the radio  206  and may be a separate element or may be integrated with a mobile communicator or in any other suitable vehicle element.  
         [0454]    Interface assembly  1927  preferably includes a local signal receiver  1928 , which receives the local signal from radio  206  and configures a tuner  1929  to the identical frequency of the signal receiver  1920  in radio  206  (FIG. 2). This allows the signal receiver  1930  in the interface assembly  1927  to receive the identical broadcast message as signal receiver  1920  from transmitter  1916 . The tuned frequency number can be made visible on a display such as an LED display (not shown). It is a particular feature of the present invention that the frequency of the tuner  1929  may be manually locked by means of a frequency lock  1931  via a switch  1932  operated by an operator interface  1934 , typically a touch button. Alternatively the frequency lock  1931  maybe operated automatically.  
         [0455]    The signal receiver  1930  passes on the signal received from the transmitter  1916  to a signal separator  1936  that separates a non-audio, non-visible output from the audio signal. The non-audio, non-visible output is received by a data signal processor  1938  and is subsequently received by a data signal separator  1940  the output of which is received by a transceiver  1942 .  
         [0456]    The non-audio, non-visible output transmitted by transceiver  1942  may be received by a transceiver  1944  forming part of a mobile communicator  194  (FIG. 2). It is appreciated that transceivers  1942  and  1944  and the communication link therebetween may be replaced by any other suitable wired or wireless communication link, such as a ohmic connection, an IR communication link, a Bluetooth communication link or another short range communication link.  
         [0457]    The output from the transceiver  1944  may be stored in a signal storage medium  1946 . Such storage may be but need not necessarily be controlled by a switch  1948  controlled by an operator using an operator interface  1950 .  
         [0458]    In the example shown in FIG. 9F, the operator interface  1950  may be speech actuated, such that when the operator says “CAPTURE” as illustrated in FIG. 2, the non-audio, non-visible output of data signal separator is stored in storage medium  1946 .  
         [0459]    Additionally or alternatively, a switch  1952  may be provided at an output of storage medium  1946  and may be actuated by an operator using operator interface  1950 . The operation of switch  1952  may be similar to that of switch  1948 , the only difference in their effect being that switch  1948  governs storage of the non-audio, non-visible output, while switch  1952  governs supply thereof to a data signal processor  1962 .  
         [0460]    The output of the data signal processor  1962  may be supplied to a data signal separator  1964 , which may provide a visible data output which may be displayed on a screen  216  of the mobile communicator  214 . The output from the data signal separator  1964  is typically a product-specific code which, in the context of FIG. 2 is shown as #1234#, and which may be stored in a signal storage medium  1966 . As distinct from the embodiment in FIG. 8F, non product-specific contact information is not necessarily contained within the non-audio, non-visible output and may be provided by means other than the inaudible non-audio content portion, such as by a cookie. The non product-specific contact information may also be stored in signal storage medium  1966 . In the context of FIG. 2, the non-product specific contact information may include, for example, a web address such as “WWW.PORTAL.COM” and/or a telephone number, such as 1-800-864-2222. Such storage may be, but need not necessarily be, governed by a switch  1968  controlled by an operator using an operator interface  1970 .  
         [0461]    In the example shown in FIG. 9F, the operator interface  1970  may be speech actuated, such that when the operator says “CONTACT” as illustrated in FIG. 2, the product-specific contact information output of data signal separator  1964  is stored in storage medium  1966 .  
         [0462]    Additionally or alternatively, a switch  1972  may be provided at an output of storage medium  1966  and may be actuated by an operator using operator interface  1970 . The operation of switch  1972  may be similar to that of switch  1968 , the only difference in their effect being that switch  1968  governs storage of the product-specific contact information output, while switch  1972  governs supply of both the product-specific contact information and the non product-specific to a transceiver  1974 .  
         [0463]    Transceiver  1964  preferably includes a wireless modem which is enabled to communicate via the Internet with a server  213  (FIG. 2), which in turn communicates with database  211  (FIG. 2).  
         [0464]    A GPS device  1975  may be associated with the mobile communicator may transmit the user&#39;s geographic coordinates to the server.  
         [0465]    In the illustrated embodiment, which is described functionally hereinabove with reference to FIG. 2, the user may at any time actuate the mobile communicator  214  (FIG. 2) to establish contact via transceiver  1974  on the basis of part or all of the product-specific contact information output from data signal separator  1964  and the non product-specific contact information preferably stored in the storage medium  1966 .  
         [0466]    [0466]FIG. 2 shows an example wherein a user actuates the mobile communicator  214 , typically embodied as a web-enabled wireless personal digital assistant, to access a product-specific web site  217  (FIG. 2) identified by the web address WWW.MWATER/FREE.COM. In the illustrated embodiment, this access is achieved via a non product-specific server, embodied in server  213 , which is accessed via the Internet by use of a non product-specific web address, such as “WWW.PORTAL.COM”.  
         [0467]    Upon accessing the non product-specific web server  213 , the product-specific contact information, such as a code, may be transferred to the database  211  via the pathway designated as A The code may be matched against the full product-specific information, shown as  208  in FIG. 2. The product-specific contact information may be transferred from the database  211  via the pathway designated as B to the non product-specific server  213 . The non product-specific server  213  allows contact to be established between the user and a product-specific server  217  (FIG. 2). Once the user has accessed the product-specific web site identified by the web address “WWW.MWATER/FREE.COM”, the user may obtain information or, as shown in FIG. 2, enter into any appropriate commercial transaction, such as one which results in water being delivered to the residence of the user.  
         [0468]    In accordance with a preferred embodiment of the present invention, database  211  may receive all or part of the content information output from data signal separator  1964  via a computer network communication, and from data signal processor  1912 . Database  211  is preferably operative to collect and correlate user information and activities in connection with given contact information and to communicate with a facilitator  1977 . The facilitator  1977  may have multiple functionalities which may be combined in a single entity or divided among various separate entities. The facilitator  1977  preferably interfaces among and between a broadcast facility  200  (FIG. 2) a user, a supplier of goods or services  1968  and various elements of communication facility  226  (FIG. 2) such as database  211 , server  213  and telephone center  224 . The facilitator  1977  may be operated by the operator of communication facility  226  or by another entity.  
         [0469]    The facilitator  1977  preferably provides at least one of coordination and financial arrangements between one or more of a broadcast facility  200  (FIG. 2) a user, a supplier of goods or services  1968  and various elements of communication facility  226  (FIG. 2) such as database  211 , server  213  and telephone center  224 . Thus it is appreciated that the facilitator  1977  may provide payment arrangements between two or more of a broadcast facility  200  (FIG. 2), a user, a supplier of goods or services  1978  and an advertiser.  
         [0470]    Reference is now made to FIGS. 10A, 10B,  10 C,  10 D,  10 E &amp;  10 F are simplified functional block diagrams of six alternative embodiments of the system of FIG. 3. As seen in FIG. 10A, there is provided a system and methodology of the type shown in FIG. 3, wherein a commercial message is broadcast by a radio broadcast facility, such as an FM or digital broadcast facility.  
         [0471]    In the illustrated embodiment of FIG. 10A, the radio broadcast facility  300  (FIG. 33), typically a FM broadcast facility having subcarrier broadcast functionality, such as via a RDS, RBDS or a DARC protocol, includes an audio signal processor  2010 , receiving an audio signal input, as well as a data signal processor  2012 , receiving a data signal input. Outputs of processors  2010  and  2012  are supplied to a signal synchronizer  2014 , which combines these outputs with suitable synchronization therebetween and supplies a combined output to a transmitter  2016 .  
         [0472]    As illustrated in FIG. 3, the broadcast message preferably includes an audible audio content portion and an inaudible non-audio content portion.  
         [0473]    The broadcast message may be received, for example, by a radio  306  (FIG. 3), typically located in a vehicle. As seen in FIG. 10A, the radio is a non-standard radio including a signal receiver  2020  which outputs to a signal separator  2022 , which is operative to separate the received signal into audio and data portions which are processed respectively by an audio signal processor  2024  and a data signal processor  2026 . The output of the audio signal processor  2024  may be heard by a user via a speaker, such as speaker  309  (FIG. 3).  
         [0474]    The output of the data signal processor  2026  is supplied to a data signal separator  2028  which may provide a visible output to a suitable radio display, such as display  312  (FIG. 3). It is a particular feature of the present invention that the data signal separator  2028  also provides a non-audio, non-visible output, which may be stored in a signal storage medium  2030 . Such storage may be, but need not necessarily be, governed by a switch  2032  controlled by an operator using an operator interface  2034 .  
         [0475]    In the example shown in FIG. 10A, the operator interface  2034  may be speech actuated, such that when the operator says “CAPTURE” as illustrated in FIG. 3, the non-audio, non-visible output of data signal separator  2028  is stored in storage medium  2030 .  
         [0476]    Additionally or alternatively, a switch  2036  may be provided at an output of storage medium  2030  and may be actuated by an operator using operator interface  2034 . The operation of switch  2036  may be similar to that of switch  2032 , the only difference in their effect being that switch  2032  governs storage of the non-audio, non-visible output, while switch  2036  governs supply thereof to a transceiver  2038 .  
         [0477]    The non-audio, non-visible output transmitted by transceiver  2038  may be received by a transceiver  2040  forming part of a mobile communicator  315  (FIG. 3). It is appreciated that transceivers  2038  and  2040  and the communication link therebetween may be replaced by any other suitable wired or wireless communication link, such as a ohmic connection, an IR communication link, a Bluetooth communication link or another short range communication link.

The output of the data signal processor  2042  may be supplied to a data signal separator  2044 , which may provide a visible data output which may be displayed on a screen  317  of the mobile communicator  315 . The output from the data signal separator  2044  is typically a non product-specific telephone number and a product-specific code which, in the context of FIG. 3 is shown as 1-800-864-2222 and #1234#, and which may be stored in a signal storage medium  2046 . As distinct from the embodiment in FIG. 9A, non product-specific contact information, in a form that may include a telephone number, together with product-specific contact information that may include a code, is preferably contained within the non-audio, non-visible output. Alternatively, the non product-specific contact information may be provided by means other than the inaudible non-audio content portion, such as preset contact information stored in the mobile communicator  315 . Such storage  2046  may be, but need not necessarily be, governed by a switch  2048  controlled by an operator using an operator interface  2050 .  
         [0479]    In the example shown in FIG. 10A, the operator interface  2050  may be speech actuated, such that when the operator says “CONTACT” as illustrated in FIG. 3, the product-specific contact information output of data signal separator  2044  is stored in storage medium  2046 .  
         [0480]    Additionally or alternatively, a switch  2052  may be provided at an output of storage medium  2046  and may be actuated by an operator using operator interface  2050 . The operation of switch  2052  may be similar to that of switch  2048 , the only difference in their effect being that switch  2048  governs storage of the product-specific contact information output, while switch  2052  governs supply of both the product-specific contact information and the non product-specific to a transceiver  2054 .  
         [0481]    Transceiver  2054  preferably includes a wireless modem which is enabled to communicate via the Internet with a server  318  (FIG. 3), which in turn communicates with database  313  (FIG. 3).

         [0485]    The non product-specific telephone center  324  preferably maintains an Internet connection with a non product-specific server  318  as shown in FIG. 3. Upon accessing the non product-specific telephone center  324 , the product-specific contact information, such as a code, may be transferred to the non product-specific server  318  via the pathway designated as A. The non product-specific server  318  may transfer the product-specific contact information, such as a code, to a database  313  via the pathway designated as B. The code may be matched against the full product-specific information, shown as  310  in FIG. 3. The product-specific contact information may be transferred from the database  313  via the pathway designated as C to the non product-specific server  318 . The non product-specific server  318  may transfer the product-specific contact information to the non product-specific telephone center  324  via the pathway designated as D. The non product-specific telephone center  324  allows contact to be established between the user and a product-specific telephone center  330  (FIG. 3). Once the user has accessed the product-specific telephone center identified by the telephone number 1-800-WATER4U, the user may obtain information or, as shown in FIG. 3, enter into any appropriate commercial transaction, such as one which results in water being delivered to the residence of the user.  
         [0486]    It is appreciated that where the mobile communicator  315  is embodied as a WAP enabled phone then the product specific contact information may be in the form of a web address such as WWW.MWATER/FREE.COM.  
         [0487]    In accordance with a preferred embodiment of the present invention, database  313  may receive all or part of the content information output from data signal separator  2044  via a computer network communication, and from data signal processor  2012 .

It is a particular feature of the present invention that the data signal separator  2128  also provides a non-audio, non-visible output which may be stored in a signal storage medium  2130  and is provided to a transceiver  2138 .  
         [0494]    The non-audio, non-visible output transmitted by transceiver  2138  may be received by a transceiver  2140  forming part of a mobile communicator  314  (FIG. 3). It is appreciated that transceivers  2138  and  2140  and the communication link therebetween may be replaced by any other suitable wired or wireless communication link, such as a ohmic connection, an IR communication link, a Bluetooth communication link or another short range communication link.  
         [0495]    The output of transceiver  2140  may be supplied to a storage medium  2142 . Such storage may be, but need not necessarily be, governed by a switch  2144  controlled by an operator using an operator interface  2146 .  
         [0496]    In the example shown in FIG. 3, the operator interface  2146  may be speech actuated, such that when the operator says “CAPTURE” as illustrated in FIG. 3, the non-audio, non-visible output of data signal separator is stored in storage medium  2142 .  
         [0497]    Additionally or alternatively, a switch  2148  may be provided at an output of storage medium  2142  and may be actuated by an operator using operator interface  2146 . The operation of switch  2148  may be similar to that of switch  2144 , the only difference in their effect being that switch  2148  governs storage of the non-audio, non-visible output, while switch  2144  governs supply thereof to a data signal processor  2150 .  
         [0498]    The output of the data signal processor  2150  may be supplied to a data signal separator  2152 , which may provide a visible data output which may be displayed on a screen  317  of the mobile communicator  315 . The output from the data signal separator  2152  is typically a non product-specific telephone number and a product-specific code which, in the context of FIG. 3 is shown as 1-800-864-2222 and #1234#, and which may be stored in a signal storage medium  2154 . As distinct from the embodiment in FIG. 9B, non product-specific contact information, in a form that may include a telephone number, together with product-specific contact information that may include a code, is preferably contained within the non-audio, non-visible output. Alternatively, the non product-specific contact information may be provided by means other than the inaudible non-audio content portion, such as preset contact-information stored in the mobile communicator  315 . Such storage  2154  may be, but need not necessarily be, governed by a switch  2155  controlled by an operator using an operator interface  2150 .  
         [0499]    In the example shown in FIG. 10B, the operator interface  2150  may be speech actuated, such that when the operator says “CONTACT” as illustrated in FIG. 3, the product-specific contact information output of data signal separator  2155  is stored in storage medium  2154 .  
         [0500]    Additionally or alternatively, a switch  2156  may be provided at an output of storage medium  2154  and may be actuated by an operator using operator interface  2150 . The operation of switch  2156  may be similar to that of switch  2155 , the only difference in their effect being that switch  2155  governs storage of the product-specific contact information output, while switch  2156  governs supply of both the product-specific contact information and the non product-specific to a transceiver  2157 .  
         [0501]    Transceiver  2157  preferably includes a wireless modem which is enabled to communicate via the Internet with a server  318  (FIG. 3), which in turn communicates with database  313  (FIG. 3).  
         [0502]    A GPS device  2158  may be associated with the mobile communicator  315  and may transmit via the transceiver  2157  the user&#39;s geographic coordinates to the server  314 .  
         [0503]    In the illustrated embodiment, which is described functionally hereinabove with reference to FIG. 3, the user may at any time actuate the mobile communicator  314  (FIG. 3) to establish contact via transceiver  2157  on the basis of part or all of the product-specific contact information output from data signal separator  2162  and the non product-specific contact information preferably stored in the storage medium  2154 .  
         [0504]    [0504]FIG. 3 shows an example wherein a user actuates the mobile communicator  315 , typically embodied as a cellular telephone or a WAP phone, to access a product-specific telephone center  330  (FIG. 3) identified by phone number 1-800-WATER4U. In the illustrated embodiment, this access is achieved via a non product-specific telephone center, embodied in telephone center  324 , which is accessed via a cellular telephone link by use of a non product-specific telephone number, such as “1-800-864-2222”.  
         [0505]    The non product-specific telephone center  324  (FIG. 3) preferably maintains an Internet connection with a non product-specific server  314  as shown in FIG. 3. Upon accessing the non product-specific telephone center  324  (FIG. 3), the product-specific contact information, such as a code, may be transferred to the non product-specific server  314  (FIG. 3) via the pathway designated as A. The non product-specific server  318  (FIG. 3) may transfer the product-specific contact information, such as a code, to a database  313  (FIG. 3) via the pathway designated as B. The code may be matched against the full product-specific information, shown as  310  in FIG. 3. The product-specific contact information may be transferred from the database  313  (FIG. 3) via the pathway designated as C to the non product-specific server  318  (FIG. 3). The non product-specific server  318  (FIG. 3) may transfer the product-specific contact information to the non product-specific telephone center  324  (FIG. 3) via the pathway designated as D. The non product-specific telephone center  324  (FIG. 3) allows contact to be established between the user and a product-specific telephone center  330  (FIG. 3). Once the user has accessed the product-specific telephone center  330  identified by the telephone number 1-800-WATER4U, the user may obtain information or, as shown in FIG. 3, enter into any appropriate commercial transaction, such as one which results in water being delivered to the residence of the user.  
         [0506]    It is appreciated that where the mobile communicator  315  (FIG. 3) is embodied as a WAP enabled phone then the product specific contact information may be in the form of a web address such as WWW.MWATER/FREE.COM.  
         [0507]    In accordance with a preferred embodiment of the present invention, database  313  may receive all or part of the content information output from data signal separator  2152  via a computer network communication, and from data signal processor  2112 . Database  313  is preferably operative to collect and correlate user information and activities in connection with given contact information and to communicate with a facilitator  2160 . The facilitator  2160  may have multiple functionalities which may be combined in a single entity or divided among various separate entities. The facilitator  2160  preferably interfaces among and between a broadcast facility  300  (FIG. 3) a user, a supplier of goods or services  2162  and various elements of communication facility  326  (FIG. 3) such as database  313 , server  314  and telephone center  324 . The facilitator  2160  may be operated by the operator of communication facility  326  or by another entity.  
         [0508]    The facilitator  2160  preferably provides at least one of coordination and financial arrangements between one or more of a broadcast facility  300  (FIG. 3) a user, a supplier of goods or services  2162  and various elements of communication facility  326  (FIG. 3) such as database  313 , server  314  and telephone center  324 . Thus it is appreciated that the facilitator  2160  may provide payment arrangements between two or more of a broadcast facility  300  (FIG. 3), a user, a supplier of goods or services  2162  and an advertiser.  
         [0509]    In the illustrated embodiment of FIG. 10C, the radio broadcast facility  300  (FIG. 3), typically a digital broadcast facility, includes a voice to data processor  2210 , receiving an audio signal input. The output of processor  2210  and a data signal input are supplied to a digital signal processor  2214 , which combines these outputs with suitable synchronization therebetween and supplies a combined output to a digital transmitter  2216 .  
         [0510]    As illustrated in FIG. 3, the broadcast message, preferably includes an audible audio content portion and an inaudible non-audio content portion.  
         [0511]    The digital broadcast message may be received, for example, by a radio  306  (FIG. 3), typically located in a vehicle. As seen in FIG. 10C, the radio is a non-standard digital radio including a digital signal receiver  2220  which outputs to a digital signal processor  2222 . The processed signal is delivered to a digital signal separator  2224  which is operative to separate the received digital signal into audio and data portions which are processed respectively by a data to voice processor  2226  and a data signal separator  2228 . The output of the data to voice processor  2226  may be heard by a user via a speaker, such as speaker  309  (FIG. 3).  
         [0512]    The output of the data signal separator  2228  may provide a visible data output to a suitable radio display, such as display  312  (FIG. 3). It is a particular feature of the present invention that the data signal separator  2228  also provides a non-audio, non-visible output, which may be stored in a signal storage medium  2230 . Such storage may be, but need not necessarily be, governed by a switch  2232  controlled by an operator using an operator interface  2234 .  
         [0513]    In the example shown in FIG. 3, the operator interface  2234  may be speech actuated, such that when the operator says “CAPTURE” as illustrated in FIG. 3, the non-audio, non-visible output of data signal separator is stored in storage medium  2230 .  
         [0514]    Additionally or alternatively, a switch  2236  may be provided at an output of storage medium  2230  and may be actuated by an operator using operator interface  2234 . The operation of switch  2236  may be similar to that of switch  2232 , the only difference in their effect being that switch  2232  governs storage of the non-audio, non-visible output, while switch  2236  governs supply thereof to a transceiver  2238 .  
         [0515]    The non-audio, non-visible output transmitted by transceiver  2238  may be received by a transceiver  2240  forming part of a mobile communicator  315  (FIG. 3). It is appreciated that transceivers  2238  and  2240  and the communication link therebetween may be replaced by any other suitable wired or wireless communication link, such as a ohmic connection, an IR communication link, a Bluetooth communication link or another short range communication link.  
         [0516]    The output of transceiver  2240  is preferably supplied to a data signal processor  2242 . The output of the data signal processor  2242  may be supplied to a data signal separator  2244 , which may provide a visible data output which may be displayed on a screen  317  of the mobile communicator  315 .

         [0545]    In the illustrated embodiment of FIG. 10E, the radio broadcast facility  300  (FIG. 3), typically a FM broadcast facility having subcarrier broadcast functionality, such as via a RDS, RBDS or a DARC protocol, includes an audio signal processor  2410 , receiving an audio signal input, as well as a data signal processor  2412 , receiving a data signal input. Outputs of processors  2410  and  2412  are supplied to a signal synchronizer  2414 , which combines these outputs with suitable synchronization therebetween and supplies a combined output to a transmitter  2416 .  
         [0546]    As illustrated in FIG. 3, the broadcast message, preferably includes an audible audio content portion and an inaudible non-audio content portion.  
         [0547]    The broadcast message may be received, for example, by a radio  306  (FIG. 3), typically located in a vehicle. As seen in FIG. 10E, the radio may be a conventional RDS enabled radio, such as a JVC CH-KP950R, including a signal receiver  2420  which outputs to a signal separator  2422 , which is operative to separate the received signal into audio and data portions which are processed respectively by an audio signal processor  2424  and a data signal processor  2426 . The output of the audio signal processor  2424  may be heard by a user via a speaker, such as speaker  309  (FIG. 3) and the output of the data signal processor  2426  may provide a visible data output to a suitable radio display, such as display  312  (FIG. 3). Alternatively, radio  306  may be a conventional non-RDS enabled radio, such as a Pioneer KEH- 1900 , which does not include a signal separator or a data signal processor.  
         [0548]    It is typical of conventional radios  306  that a local signal is transmitted from the signal receiver  2420  over short distances typically  3  feet. In accordance with a preferred embodiment of the present invention, this local signal is employed by a wireless interface assembly  2427  to provide contact information from the radio  306  to the mobile communicator  315  (FIG. 3).  
         [0549]    Interface assembly  2427 , which is not shown in FIG. 3, may reside anywhere within the local signal reception range of the radio  306  and may be a separate element or may be integrated with a mobile communicator or in any other suitable vehicle element.  
         [0550]    Interface assembly  2427  preferably includes a local signal receiver  2428 , which receives the local signal from radio and configures a tuner  2429  to the identical frequency of the signal receiver  2420  in radio  306  (FIG. 3). This allows the signal receiver  2428  to receive the identical broadcast message as signal receiver  2420 . The tuned frequency number can be made visible on a display such as an LED display (not shown). It is a particular feature of the present invention that the frequency of the tuner  2429  may be manually locked by means of a frequency lock  2430  via a switch  2432  operated by an operator interface  2434 , typically a touch button. The signal receiver  2428  provides the signal received from the transmitter  2416  to a signal separator  2436  that isolates therefrom a non-audio, non-visible output. The non-audio, non-visible output is received by a data signal processor  2438  which outputs to a data signal separator  2440 , the output of which may be stored in a signal storage medium  2442 . Such storage may be but need not necessarily be governed by a switch  2444  controlled by an operator using an operator interface  2446 .  
         [0551]    In the example shown in FIG. 10E, the operator interface  2446  may be speech actuated, such that when the operator says “CAPTURE” as illustrated in FIG. 3, the non-audio, non-visible output of data signal separator is stored in storage medium  2442 .  
         [0552]    Additionally or alternatively, a switch  2448  may be provided at an output of storage medium  2442  and may be actuated by an operator using operator interface  2446 . The operation of switch  2442  may be similar to that of switch  2444 , the only difference in their effect being that switch  2444  governs storage of the non-audio, non-visible output, while switch  2248  governs supply thereof to a transceiver  2450 .  
         [0553]    The non-audio, non-visible output transmitted by transceiver  2450  may be received by a transceiver  2460  forming part of a mobile communicator  315  (FIG. 3). It is appreciated that transceivers  2450  and  2460  and the communication link therebetween may be replaced by any other suitable wired or wireless communication link, such as a ohmic connection, an IR communication link, a Bluetooth communication link or another short range communication link.  
         [0554]    The output of transceiver  2460  is preferably supplied to a data signal processor  2462 . The output of the data signal processor  2462  may be supplied to a data signal separator  2464 , which may provide a visible data output which may be displayed on a screen  317  of the mobile communicator  315 . The output from the data signal separator  2464  is typically a non product-specific telephone number and a product-specific code which, in the context of FIG. 3 is shown as 1-800-864-2222 and #1234#, and which may be stored in a signal storage medium  2466 . As distinct from the embodiment in FIG. 10E, non product-specific contact information, in a form that may include a telephone number, together with product-specific contact information that may include a code, is preferably contained within the non-audio, non-visible output. Alternatively, the non product-specific contact information may be provided by means other than the inaudible non-audio content portion, such as preset contact information stored in the mobile communicator  315 . Such storage  2466  may be, but need not necessarily be, governed by a switch  2468  controlled by an operator using an operator interface  2470 .  
         [0555]    In the example shown in FIG. 10E, the operator interface  2470  may be speech actuated, such that when the operator says “CONTACT” as illustrated in FIG. 3, the product-specific contact information output of data signal separator  2464  is stored in storage medium  2466 .  
         [0556]    Additionally or alternatively, a switch  2472  may be provided at an output of storage medium  2466  and may be actuated by an operator using operator interface  2470 . The operation of switch  2472  may be similar to that of switch  2468 , the only difference in their effect being that switch  2468  governs storage of the product-specific contact information output, while switch  2472  governs supply of both the product-specific contact information and the non product-specific to a transceiver  2474 .  
         [0557]    Transceiver  2474  preferably includes a wireless modem which is enabled to communicate via the Internet with a server  315  (FIG. 3), which in turn communicates with database  313  (FIG. 3).  
         [0558]    A GPS device  2476  may be associated with the mobile communicator and may transmit via the transceiver  2475  the user&#39;s geographic coordinates to the server  314 .  
         [0559]    In the illustrated embodiment, which is described functionally hereinabove with reference to FIG. 3, the user may at any time actuate the mobile communicator  315  (FIG. 3) to establish contact via transceiver  2475  on the basis of part or all of the product-specific contact information output from data signal separator  2464  and the non product-specific contact information preferably stored in the storage medium  2466 .  
         [0560]    [0560]FIG. 3 shows an example wherein a user actuates the mobile communicator  315 , typically embodied as a cellular telephone or a WAP phone, to access a product-specific telephone center  330  (FIG. 3) identified by phone number 1-800-WATER4U. In the illustrated embodiment, this access is achieved via a non product-specific telephone center, embodied in telephone center  324 , which is accessed via a cellular telephone link by use of a non product-specific telephone number, such as “1-800-864-2222”.  
         [0561]    The non product-specific telephone center  324  preferably maintains an Internet connection with a non product-specific server  314  as shown in FIG. 3. Upon accessing the non product-specific telephone center  324 , the product-specific contact information, such as a code, may be transferred to the non product-specific server  318  via the pathway designated as A. The non product-specific server  314  may transfer the product-specific contact information, such as a code, to a database  313  via the pathway designated as B. The code may be matched against the full product-specific information, shown as  311  in FIG. 3. The product-specific contact information may be transferred from the database  313  via the pathway designated as C to the non product-specific server  318 . The non product-specific server  318  may transfer the product-specific contact information to the non product-specific telephone center  324  via the pathway designated as D. The non product-specific telephone center  324  allows contact to be established between the user and a product-specific telephone center  330  (FIG. 3). Once the user has accessed the product-specific telephone center identified by the telephone number 1-800-WATER4U, the user may obtain information or, as shown in FIG. 3, enter into any appropriate commercial transaction, such as one which results in water being delivered to the residence of the user.  
         [0562]    It is appreciated that where the mobile communicator  315  is embodied as a WAP enabled phone then the product specific contact information may be in the form of a web address such as WWW.MWATER/FREE.COM.  
         [0563]    In accordance with a preferred embodiment of the present invention, database  313  may receive all or part of the content information output from data signal separator  2464  via a computer network communication, and from data signal processor  2412 . Database  313  is preferably operative to collect and correlate user information and activities in connection with given contact information and to communicate with a facilitator  2478 . The facilitator  2478  may have multiple functionalities which may be combined in a single entity or divided among various separate entities. The facilitator  2478  preferably interfaces among and between a broadcast facility  300  (FIG. 3) a user, a supplier of goods or services  2480  and various elements of communication facility  326  (FIG. 3) such as database  313 , server  314  and telephone center  324 . The facilitator  2478  may be operated by the operator of communication facility  326  or by another entity.  
         [0564]    The facilitator  2478  preferably provides at least one of coordination and financial arrangements between one or more of a broadcast facility  300  (FIG. 3) a user, a supplier of goods or services  2480  and various elements of communication facility  326  (FIG. 3) such as database  313 , server  314  and telephone center  324 . Thus it is appreciated that the facilitator may provide payment arrangements between two or more of a broadcast facility  300  (FIG. 3), a user, a supplier of goods or services  2480  and an advertiser.  
         [0565]    In the illustrated embodiment of FIG. 10F, the radio broadcast facility  220  (FIG. 3), typically a FM broadcast facility having subcarrier broadcast functionality, such as via a RDS, RBDS or a DARC protocol, includes an audio signal processor  2510 , receiving an audio signal input, as well as a data signal processor  2512 , receiving a data signal input. Outputs of processors  2511  and  2512  are supplied to a signal synchronizer  2514 , which combines these outputs with suitable synchronization therebetween and supplies a combined output to a transmitter  2516 .  
         [0566]    As illustrated in FIG. 3, the broadcast message, preferably includes an audible audio content portion and an inaudible non-audio subcarrier content portion.  
         [0567]    The broadcast message may be received, for example, by a radio  306  (FIG. 3), typically located in a vehicle. As seen in FIG. 10F, the radio is a standard radio including a signal receiver  2520  which outputs to a signal separator  2522 , which is operative to separate the received signal into audio and data portions which are received respectively by an audio signal processor  2524  and a data signal processor  2526 . The output of the audio signal processor  2524  may be heard by a user via a speaker, such as speaker  309  (FIG. 3) and the output of the data signal processor  2526  may provide a visible data output to a suitable radio display, such as display  312  (FIG. 3).  
         [0568]    It is typical of conventional radios  306  that a local signal is transmitted from the signal receiver  2520  over short distances typically  3  feet. In accordance with a preferred embodiment of the present invention, this local signal is employed by a wireless interface assembly  2527  to provide contact information from the radio  306  to the mobile communicator  315  (FIG. 3).  
         [0569]    Interface assembly  2527 , which is not shown in FIG. 3, may reside anywhere within the local signal reception range of the radio  306  and may be a separate element or may be integrated with a mobile communicator or in any other suitable vehicle element.  
         [0570]    Interface assembly  2527  preferably includes a local signal receiver  2528 , which receives the local signal from radio  306  and configures a tuner  2526  to the identical frequency of the signal receiver  2520  in radio  306  (FIG.  3 ). This allows the signal receiver  2528  to receive the identical broadcast message as signal receiver  2520 . The tuned frequency number can be made visible on a display such as an LED display (not shown). It is a particular feature of the present invention that the frequency of the tuner  2526  may be manually locked by means of a frequency lock  2530  via a switch  2532  operated by an operator interface  2534 , typically a touch button. Alternatively the frequency lock  2530  maybe operated automatically.  
         [0571]    The signal receiver  2530  passes on the signal received from the transmitter  2516  to a signal separator  2536  that separates a non-audio, non-visible output from the audio signal. The non-audio, non-visible output is received by a data signal processor  2538  and is subsequently received by a data signal separator  2540  the output of which is received by a transceiver  2542 .  
         [0572]    The non-audio, non-visible output transmitted by transceiver  2542  may be received by a transceiver  2544  forming part of a mobile communicator  315  (FIG. 3). It is appreciated that transceivers  2542  and  2544  and the communication link therebetween may be replaced by any other suitable wired or wireless communication link, such as a ohmic connection, an IR communication link, a Bluetooth communication link or another short range communication link.  
         [0573]    The output from the transceiver  2544  may be stored in a signal storage medium  2546 . Such storage may be but need not necessarily be controlled by a switch  2548  controlled by an operator using an operator interface  2550 .  
         [0574]    In the example shown in FIG. 3, the operator interface  2550  may be speech actuated, such that when the operator says “CAPTURE” as illustrated in FIG. 3, the non-audio, non-visible output of data signal separator is stored in storage medium  2546 .  
         [0575]    Additionally or alternatively, a switch  2552  may be provided at an output of storage medium  2546  and may be actuated by an operator using operator interface  2550 . The operation of switch  2552  may be similar to that of switch  2548 , the only difference in their effect being that switch  2548  governs storage of the non-audio, non-visible output, while switch  2552  governs supply thereof to a data signal processor  2562 .  
         [0576]    The output of the data signal processor  2562  may be supplied to a data signal separator  2554 , which may provide a visible data output which may be displayed on a screen of the mobile communicator  315 . The output from the data signal separator  2554  is typically a product-specific code which, in the context of FIG. 3 is shown as #1234#, and which may be stored in a signal storage medium  2556 . As distinct from the embodiment in FIG. 10F, non product-specific contact information is not necessarily contained within the non-audio, non-visible output and may be provided by means other than the inaudible non-audio content portion, such as by a cookie. The non product-specific contact information may also be stored in signal storage medium  2556 . In the context of FIG. 3, the non-product specific contact information may include, for example, a web address such as “WWW.PORTAL.COM” and/or a telephone number, such as 1-800-864-2222. Such storage may be, but need not necessarily be, governed by a switch  2558  controlled by an operator using an operator interface  2560 .  
         [0577]    In the example shown in FIG. 10F, the operator interface  2560  may be speech actuated, such that when the operator says “CONTACT” as illustrated in FIG. 3, the product-specific contact information output of data signal separator  2554  is stored in storage medium  2556 .  
         [0578]    Additionally or alternatively, a switch  2562  may be provided at an output of storage medium  2556  and may be actuated by an operator using operator interface  2560 . The operation of switch  2562  may be similar to that of switch  2558 , the only difference in their effect being that switch  2558  governs storage of the product-specific contact information output, while switch  2562  governs supply of both the product-specific contact information and the non product-specific to a transceiver  2564 .  
         [0579]    Transceiver  2564  preferably includes a wireless modem which is enabled to communicate via the Internet with a server  318  (FIG. 3), which in turn communicates with database  313  (FIG. 3).  
         [0580]    A GPS device  2565  may be associated with the mobile communicator may transmit the user&#39;s geographic coordinates to the server.  
         [0581]    In the illustrated embodiment, which is described functionally hereinabove with reference to FIG. 3, the user may at any time actuate the mobile communicator  315  (FIG. 3) to establish contact via transceiver  2564  on the basis of part or all of the product-specific contact information output from data signal separator  2554  and the non product-specific contact information preferably stored in the storage medium  2556 .  
         [0582]    [0582]FIG. 3 shows an example wherein a user actuates the mobile communicator  315  typically embodied as a web-enabled wireless personal digital assistant, to access a product-specific web site  328  (FIG. 3) identified by the web address WWW.MWATER/FREE.COM. In the illustrated embodiment, this access is achieved via a non product-specific server, embodied in server  318 , which is accessed via the Internet by use of a non product-specific web address, such as “WWW.PORTAL.COM”.  
         [0583]    Upon accessing the non product-specific web server  318 , the product-specific contact information, such as a code, may be transferred to the database  313  via the pathway designated as A. The code may be matched against the full product-specific information, shown as  311  in FIG. 3. The product-specific contact information may be transferred from the database  313  via the pathway designated as B to the non product-specific server  318 . The non product-specific server  318  allows contact to be established between the user and a product-specific server  328  (FIG. 3). Once the user has accessed the product-specific web site identified by the web address “WWW.MWATER/FREE.COM”, the user may obtain information or, as shown in FIG. 3, enter into any appropriate commercial transaction, such as one which results in water being delivered to the residence of the user.  
         [0584]    In accordance with a preferred embodiment of the present invention, database  313  may receive all or part of the content information output from data signal separator  2554  via a computer network communication, as from data signal processor  2562 . Database  313  is preferably operative to collect and correlate user information and activities in connection with given contact information and to communicate with a facilitator  2567 . The facilitator  2567  may have multiple functionalities which may be combined in a single entity or divided among various separate entities. The facilitator preferably interfaces among and between a broadcast facility  300  (FIG. 3) a user, a supplier of goods or services  2568  and various elements of communication facility  326  (FIG. 3) such as database  313 , server  318  and telephone center  324 . The facilitator  2567  may be operated by the operator of communication facility  326  or by another entity.  
         [0585]    The facilitator  2567  preferably provides at least one of coordination and financial arrangements between one or more of a broadcast facility  300  (FIG. 3) a user, a supplier of goods or services  2568  and various elements of communication facility  326  (FIG. 3) such as database  313 , server  318  and telephone center  324 . Thus it is appreciated that the facilitator may provide payment arrangements between two or more of a broadcast facility  300  (FIG. 3), a user, a supplier of goods or services  2568  and an advertiser.  
         [0586]    Reference is now made to FIGS. 11A AND 11B, are simplified functional block diagrams of six alternative embodiments of the system of FIG. 4. As seen in FIG. 11A, there is provided a system and methodology of the type shown in FIG. 4, wherein a commercial message is broadcast by a radio broadcast facility, such as an FM or digital broadcast facility.  
         [0587]    In tile illustrated embodiment of FIG. 11A, the radio broadcast facility  400  (FIG. 4), typically a short range digital broadcast facility such as a Bluetooth transmitter associated with a static or mobile billboard, includes a voice to data processor  2610 , receiving an audio signal input. The output of processor  2610  and a data signal input are supplied to a digital signal processor  2614 , which combines these outputs with suitable synchronization therebetween and supplies a combined output to a digital transmitter  2616 .  
         [0588]    As illustrated in FIG. 4, the broadcast message, preferably includes an audible audio content portion  403 , and an inaudible non-audio content portion  404 .  
         [0589]    The broadcast message may be received, for example, by a Bluetooth enabled mobile communicator  405  (FIG. 4), which, in the embodiment shown in FIG. 4 is located in a vehicle  402  (FIG. 4). In distinction to the embodiments described previously, a radio  410  (FIG. 4) co-located within same vehicle  402  (FIG. 4) may not be a direct recipient of the broadcast message from the broadcast facility  400  (FIG. 4). It is appreciated that if the radio  410  is a Bluetooth enabled radio that it may also be a recipient of all or part of the broadcast message from the broadcast facility  400  (FIG. 4). The broadcast message output transmitted by digital transceiver  2616  may be received by a digital transceiver  2640 , such as a Bluetooth transceiver, forming part of a mobile communicator  405  (FIG. 4).  
         [0590]    The output of digital transceiver  2640  may be supplied to a storage medium  2642  but need not necessarily be, governed by a switch  2644  controlled by an operator using an operator interface  2646 .  
         [0591]    In the example shown in FIG. 11A, the operator interface  2646  may be speech actuated, such that when the operator says “CAPTURE” as illustrated in FIG. 4, the output of data signal separator is stored in storage medium  2642 .  
         [0592]    Additionally or alternatively, a switch  2648  may be provided at an output of storage medium  2642  and may be actuated by an operator using operator interface  2646 . The operation of switch  2648  may be similar to that of switch  2644 , the only difference in their effect being that switch  2644  governs storage of the output, while switch  2648  governs supply thereof to a data signal processor  2650 .  
         [0593]    The output of the data signal processor  2650  may be supplied to a data signal separator  2654 , which may provide a visible data output of part or all of the non-audio, non-visible portion of the broadcast message, which may be displayed on a screen  412  of the mobile communicator  405  (FIG. 4). Data signal separator  2654  may additionally provide an audio output of part or all of the audio, portion of the broadcast message, which may be heard via a speaker attached to the mobile communicator  405  (FIG. 4).  
         [0594]    The output from the data signal separator  2654  is typically, but not necessarily, a product-specific code which, in the context of FIG. 4 is shown as #1234#, and non product-specific contact information which, in the context of FIG. 4 is shown as a non product-specific web address, http://WWW.PORTAL.COM and a non product-specific telephone number, 1-800-864-2222, and which may be stored in a signal storage medium  2661 . The non product-specific contact information is not necessarily contained within the non-audio, non-visible output and may be provided by means other than the inaudible non-audio content portion, such as by a cookie or SMS.  
         [0595]    Such storage may be, but need not necessarily be, governed by a switch  2658  controlled by an operator using an operator interface  2660 .  
         [0596]    In the example shown in FIG. 11A, the operator interface  2660  may be speech actuated, such that when the operator says “CONTACT” as illustrated in FIG. 4, the product-specific contact information output of data signal separator  2654  is stored in storage medium  2661 .  
         [0597]    Additionally or alternatively, a switch  2662  may be provided at an output of storage medium  2661  and may be actuated by an operator using operator interface  2660 . The operation of switch  2662  may be similar to that of switch  2658 , the only difference in their effect being that switch  2658  governs storage of the product-specific contact information output, while switch  2662  governs supply of both the product-specific contact information and the non product-specific to a transceiver  2664 .  
         [0598]    Transceiver  2664  preferably includes a wireless modem which is enabled to communicate via the Internet with a server  409409  (FIG. 4), which in turn communicates with database  408  (FIG. 4).

FIG. 22 illustrates interaction between at least one broadcast facility such as, for example, broadcast facility  100  in FIG. 1, at least one non-product specific communication facility, such as, for example, non product-specific communication facility  130  in FIG. 1 and at least one product-specific communication facility, such as, for example, a product-specific communication facility embodied in a server such as server  118  or a telephone center such as telephone center  120  in the embodiment of FIG. 1, in accordance with a preferred embodiment of the present invention.  
         [0701]    As seen in FIG. 22, a broadcast schedule for broadcasts is preferably established by coordination between one or more facilitators and one or more broadcast facilities. Typically, this broadcast schedule includes broadcast of plural product-specific messages for plural advertisers and/or suppliers for interaction via at least one non-product specific communication facility.  
         [0702]    Preferably prior to broadcast of the product-specific messages, interactive information relating to each broadcast is supplied, typically other than by broadcast to at least one non-product specific communication facility and optionally to one or more product specific communication facilities. This interactive information enables the non-product specific communication facility to automatically respond to contact commands provided by the user. Similarly, the interactive information provided to the product-specific communication facilities enables them to automatically respond to product-specific contacts established therewith by a user, typically via the non-product specific communication facility.  
         [0703]    Reference is now made to FIG. 23 which is a simplified flowchart of a second part of the functionality common to FIGS.  1 - 7 . FIG. 23 illustrates interaction between the broadcast facility, such as, for example, broadcast facility  100  in the embodiment of FIG. 1 and listeners to its broadcasts, such as listeners listening using a radio  106 , as in the embodiment of FIG. 1. The broadcast facility broadcasts plural interactive product-specific messages, the contents of which may be, for example, of any of the types shown in FIGS.  1 - 7  and designated by reference numerals  102 ,  104 ,  202 ,  204 ,  302 ,  304 ,  402 ,  404 ,  502 ,  602 ,  604 ,  701  and  712 .  
         [0704]    In the embodiments of FIGS.  1 - 4 ,  6  and  7 , the product specific messages contain both audio and non-audio portions. In the embodiment of FIG. 5, the product-specific messages contain only audio portions.  
         [0705]    In all of the embodiments of FIGS.  1 - 3  and  5 - 7 , the user hears the audio portion. In the embodiment of FIG. 4, which illustrates a billboard, the user need not hear an audio portion.  
         [0706]    The user may, upon either hearing the audio portion of a product-specific message, as in the embodiments of FIGS.  1 - 3  and  5 - 7  or seeing a visual message, request capture of a non-audio portion of the product-specific message. In response to a user CAPTURE command, the non-audio portion of the product-specific message is transferred to a mobile communicator, such as mobile communicator  114  in the embodiment of FIG. 1. It is noted that in the embodiment of FIG. 6, the scenario is somewhat different, in that capture is carried out internally of a computerized integrated vehicle information system  606  and the non-audio portions of product-specific messages may be transferred to a mobile communicator in response to a user&#39;s TRANSFER command.  
         [0707]    At a user&#39;s initiative, interactive contact may be established based on information contained in the non-audio portion of the product-specific message. The functionality of that contact is described hereinbelow with respect to FIG. 24.  
         [0708]    Reference is now made to FIG. 25 which illustrates data set preparation employed in the embodiment of FIG. 22 and FIGS.  1 - 7 . Priori to a broadcasting facility broadcasting a message, at least two data sets may be prepared of information fields containing, amongst other possible information, pertinent contact information, pertinent product information, pertinent timing information, pertinent source information and other pertinent information to the item broadcast.  
         [0709]    At least one data set, containing all the pertinent information, is sent to a database associated with a communication facility, as shown in FIGS.  1 - 7 .  
         [0710]    At least one other data set is prepared for broadcasting, as shown in FIGS.  1 - 4 , FIGS.  6 - 7 , and FIGS. 15A, 16A,  17 A,  18 A,  19 A, and  21 A. Information fields can be added to the data set in the second and third parts of functionality common to FIG. 1- 7  and as shown in FIG. 27.  
         [0711]    This information, collated from the data sets sent directly to the database and the data sets that are received by the database as a result of user response, may be of interest to a facilitator, broadcasting facility, advertising agency, vendors, and others, such as statistical data concerning audience response tracking.  
         [0712]    In FIGS.  15 A- 21  examples of data sets and fields are shown that relate to the data sets broadcast by the broadcasting facility. Information into a field may be added, such as GPS coordinates, time of contact, and relevant user identity details, as indicated by an arrow pointing into a field, at various points in the described embodiments of FIGS.  1 - 4  and FIGS.  6 - 7 . Information in a field may be accessed at various points in the described embodiments of FIGS.  1 - 4  and FIGS.  6 - 7 , as indicated by an arrow pointing out of a field. The abbreviations used to describe the information fields, as shown in FIGS.  15 A- 15 E  16 A- 16 E  17 A- 17 E  18 A- 18 E  19 A- 19 E  20 A- 20 E  21 A- 21 E, are elucidated hereinbelow.  
         [0713]    The embodiments of FIGS.  1 - 4  and FIGS.  6 - 7  data sets are broadcast in synchronicity with an audio broadcast, for instance as an RDS subcarrier signal (FIGS.  1 - 3  and  6 ), as an embedded digital signal (FIG. 4) or as a multiplexed cable signal (FIG. 7).  
         [0714]    In embodiments of FIGS. 1 and 6, the broadcast data set, as shown in FIGS. 15A, 19A, and  20 A, contains both the non product-specific (NON P-S) contact information and the product-specific (P-S) contact information together with pertinent information pertaining to the product description and other pertinent information not necessarily pertaining to the product description. It is appreciated that product description can include information concerning product offers, music, regular programs, news items, and traffic reports. Pertinent information pertaining to the product description may include information such as a product name, for instance “WATER” or “FREE WATER” as shown in the embodiments described herein. It is appreciated that other pertinent information can include, song lyrics, artist name, discount deals, and coupon details, and stock price quotes.  
         [0715]    Other fields, as shown in FIGS.  15 - 21 , include the station ID, such as RADIO NY; broadcast time, that is the time the data set was broadcast; the event ID, that is a unique identifier of the data set; a vendor ID, that is a unique identifier of a vendor associated with the broadcast message; NON P-S URL, that is a non product-specific web site address; P-S URL, that is a product-specific web site address; NON P-S PHONE #, that is a non product-specific telephone number; and P-S PHONE #, that is a product-specific telephone number.  
         [0716]    In embodiments of FIGS. 2, 3,  4 , and  7 , the data set broadcast as the non-audio content portion contains a product-specific code, such as #1234#. The identical code is also part of the data set sent directly to the database of the communication facility, as shown for example in FIG. 2. As shown for example in FIGS.  16 A- 16 E, a broadcast data set containing a product-specific code need not contain such information as the event ID, the vendor ID, the non product-specific contact information, nor the product-specific contact information. In such a case the non product-specific contact information has been previously downloaded into the mobile communicator by means such as a cookie or entered manually.  
         [0717]    It is appreciated that all or part of the information contained in the data set fields may be encrypted. Decryption may take place when information contained within a field is accessed for use, for instance for display on a display or for directing a browser to a web site.  
         [0718]    In the embodiment described by FIG. 5, no data set is broadcast by the broadcasting facility with the audio message. The pertinent information is transmitted directly from the non product-specific server to the mobile communicator.  
         [0719]    Reference is now made to FIG. 26 which illustrates capture functionality employed in the embodiment of FIG. 23 and of FIGS.  1 - 4  and  6 . If the radio station being listened to is not automatically known to the mobile communicator, it must be entered by the user. If the mobile communicator is a GPRS or  3 G communicator, such as in the embodiment of FIG. 5, a browser is opened to a non product-specific portal. If the mobile communicator is not a GPRS or 3G device, such as in the embodiments of FIGS.  1 - 4  and  6 , the CAPTURE command of the user may be acted upon either by the radio or by the mobile communicator. It is noted that the CAPTURE command, if not provided simultaneously with receipt of the audio portion of the product-specific message may be effective to produce a scroll-back functionality to capture earlier received and temporarily stored non-audio portions of product-specific messages.  
         [0720]    The CAPTURE command may be effected orally, or manually, as by pressing a button on a radio, a mobile communicator or an interface assembly as inter alia in the embodiments of FIGS. 8E, 8F,  9 E and  9 F.  
         [0721]    The captured data set, such as the data set appearing in FIG. 15C, is stored in the mobile communicator until needed. A successful capture indication may be provided to the user.  
         [0722]    Reference is now made to FIG. 24, which is a simplified flowchart illustrating of a third part of the functionality common to FIGS.  1 - 6 . FIG. 24 illustrates interaction between the mobile communicator and the non-product specific communication facility and product specific communication facilities. As seen in FIG. 24, interactive contact preferably is initially established between the user via the mobile communicator with the non product-specific communication facility. This may include contact established via a telephone communication, an Internet communication or any other suitable type of communication and may involve a server or a telephone center at the non product-specific communication facility.  
         [0723]    Concurrently with or following establishment of the contact between the mobile communicator and the non product-specific communication facility, there is preferably established contact between the non product-specific communication facility and an appropriate product-specific communication facility, preferably identified by information contained in the data set received by and stored in the mobile communicator. Preferably, such contact established effective contact between the user and, the product-specific communication facility. This effective contact may be directly between the mobile communicator and the product-specific communication facility or it may be indirect, such as via the non product-specific communication facility. One or more transaction may be carried out based on this effective contact.  
         [0724]    For the purposes of the present application, the term “transaction” may refer to a commercial transaction but need not be so limited. Particularly in the case of commercial transactions, various details of the transaction are preferably provided via a facilitator to pertinent parties. For example, when a product is purchased, a series of financial transfers may result, including, for example, a transfer of funds from a user or his bank to a supplier, a transfer of funds from the supplier to an advertiser or vice versa and a transfer of funds from the supplier to a broadcast facility. Where a free product is provided to a user, for example, a transfer of funds from the advertiser to the supplier may be involved. Another type of transaction may be simply provision of information with or without cost to the user. In such a case, the product is a service. An example is in depth news content which may be made available to a user upon capture of non-audio content accompanying a news flash.  
         [0725]    The facilitator may have multiple functions, not limited to financial arrangements and transfers. For example, the facilitator may provide market data based on the various contacts and transactions to one or more interested parties. In accordance with a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the facilitator functionality may advantageously be provided by the same party as that which operates the non product-specific communication facility and may employ some of the computer equipment, such as a database, at least partially in common.  
         [0726]    Reference is now made to FIG. 27, which is a simplified flowchart illustrating the contact feature of a third part of the functionality common to FIGS.  1 - 6 . Upon issuing a “CONTACT” command, either orally or manually, a mobile communicator, such as shown in FIGS.  1 - 6 , will establish a communication link between the user and a product-specific communication center via a non-product specific communication center. Such a communication link may be an Internet connection to a web server or a telephone connection to a telephone center or any combination thereof. FIGS.  1 - 6  describe mobile communicators, such as web-enabled PDAs, WAP phones, a cellular phone-enabled PDAs, vehicle PCs and regular cellular phones that may operate in at least one of these two modes.  
         [0727]    In the case where the mode of mobile communication is by wireless Internet connectivity, contact is established primarily between the mobile communicator and a non product-specific web site using the URL address obtained by means such as the non-audio content data set, a resident cookie or directly by the user. In FIGS. 1, 3,  4 ,  5  and  6  such a non product-specific URL is shown as WWW.PORTAL.COM.  
         [0728]    Upon establishing such a connection, information such as a user ID and GPS coordinates may be added to the data set, as shown for example in FIG. 15D.  
         [0729]    In the cases that the broadcast data set contains the product-specific contact information the server may directly enable the user to establish a secondary communication link with a product-specific web site. In FIGS. 1 and 6, for example, such a product-specific URL is shown as WWW.MWATER/FREE.COM. It is appreciated that the URL accessed in this manner may be of varying length and complication so as to permit the user access to very specific web locations. By such means, a user can receive information pertaining to very specific products or services.  
         [0730]    In embodiments such as of FIGS. 3 and 4, where product-specific codes are broadcast within the non-audio data set instead of explicit product-specific contact information, the mobile communicator primarily establishes contact with a non product-specific web server as described hereinabove. The code is transferred to the database where it is matched against the data set sent directly by the broadcasting facility to the database, as described in FIG. 25. The product-specific contact information is transferred back to the non product-specific server thus enabling a secondary communication link to be established between the user an the product-specific web site. It is appreciated that the URL accessed in this manner may be of varying length and complication so as to permit the user access to very specific web locations. By such means, a user can receive information pertaining to very specific products or services.  
         [0731]    In the case where the mode of mobile communication is by a cellular phone connection, contact is established primarily between the mobile communicator and a non product-specific telephone center using the telephone number obtained by means such as the non-audio content data set, a resident coolie or directly by the user. In FIGS. 1, 2,  3 ,  4 ,  5  and  6  such a non product-specific telephone number is shown as 1-800-864-2222.  
         [0732]    Upon establishing such a connection, information such as a user ID and GPS coordinates may be added to the data set, as shown for example in FIG. 15D. Alternatively, positional information may be obtained from the cellular operators and attached to the data set in the database.  
         [0733]    In the cases that the broadcast data set contains the product-specific contact information the server may directly enable the user to establish a secondary communication link with a product-specific telephone center. In FIGS. 1 and 6, for example, such a product-specific telephone number is shown as 1-800-WATER4U. By such means, a user can receive information pertaining to very specific products or services.  
         [0734]    In embodiments such as of FIG. 2, where product-specific codes are broadcast within the non-audio data set instead of explicit product-specific contact information, the mobile communicator primarily establishes contact with a non product-specific telephone center as described hereinabove. The telephone center establishes contact with a non-product-specific server maintained within a common communication facility. The code is transferred to the database where it is matched against the data set sent directly by the broadcasting facility to the database, as described in FIG. 25. The product-specific contact information is transferred back to the non product-specific server and from there to the non product-specific telephone center. Accessing the product-specific contact information enables the non product-specific telephone center to establish a secondary communication link between the user and the product-specific telephone center. By such means, a user can receive information pertaining to very specific products or services.  
         [0735]    All information pertaining to communication transactions between the user and a product-specific communication center, whether obtained from the data sets or otherwise, is stored in the database that may be maintained within a common communication facility as the non product-specific server and the non product-specific telephone center.  
         [0736]    Reference is now made to FIG. 28 which is a simplified block diagram illustrating the multi-functionality that a facilitator may have within the functionality common to FIGS.  1 - 7 . The facilitator may have multiple functions, not limited to financial arrangements and transfers. For example, the facilitator may provide market data based on the various contacts and transactions to one or more interested parties. The facilitator may be responsible for the distribution of coupons to users as a result of a transaction performed by a user using the system described herewithin. The facilitator may coordinate between the supplier of goods purchased using the system described herewithin and the purchaser. The facilitator may coordinate scheduling of broadcast messages with non-audio data content as described herein with the broadcasting facility. The facilitator may have access to and prepare audience tracking statistics for interested parties, such as advertising agencies, vendors and broadcasting facility management. The facilitator may coordinate with an advertising agency the non-audio data content that is associated with a commercial message. In accordance with a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the facilitator functionality may advantageously be provided by the same party as that which operates the non product-specific communication facility and may employ some of the computer equipment, such as a database, at least partially in common.
