One aspect pertains to data delivery to electronic devices that are portable, such as, mobile devices. In one embodiment, one mobile device discovers another mobile device within its vicinity. The mobile devices can then wirelessly transmit data from one mobile device to the other. The mobile devices, or their users, can control, request or influence the particular data content being delivered.
CROSS-REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATIONS This application claims benefit of priority from: (i) U.S. Provisional Patent Application No. 60/756,122, filed Jan. 3, 2006, and entitled ��MULTIMEDIA DATA SHARING,�� which is hereby incorporated herein by reference; and (ii) U.S. Provisional Patent Application No. 60/805,328, filed Jun. 20, 2006, and entitled ��WIRELESS COMMUNICATION SYSTEM,�� which is hereby incorporated herein by reference.
This application is related to: (i) U.S. patent application Ser. No. 11/485,142, filed Jul. 11, 2006, and entitled ��WIRELESS COMMUNICATION SYSTEM,�� which is hereby incorporated herein by reference; (ii) U.S. patent application Ser. No. 11/324,863, filed Jan. 3, 2006, and entitled ��REMOTE CONTENT UPDATES FOR PORTABLE MEDIA DEVICES,�� which is hereby incorporated herein by reference; (iii) U.S. patent application Ser. No. 11/210,172, filed Aug. 22, 2005, and entitled ��AUDIO SAMPLING AND ACQUISITION SYSTEM,�� which is hereby incorporated herein by reference; (iv) U.S. application Ser. No. 10/987,649, filed Nov. 12, 2004, and entitled ��WIRELESS SYNCHRONIZATION BETWEEN MEDIA PLAYER AND HOST DEVICE,�� which is hereby incorporated herein by reference; and (v) U.S. application Ser. No. 10/423,490, filed Apr. 25, 2003, and entitled ��MEDIA PLAYER SYSTEM,�� which is hereby incorporated herein by reference.
The data delivery described is particularly suited for delivery of media data. ��Media data,�� as used herein, is digital data that pertains to at least one of audio, video, and images. Some examples of specific forms of media data (which can be referred to as ��media items��) include, but are not limited to, songs, albums, audiobooks, playlists, movies, music videos, photos, computer games, podcasts, audio and/or video presentations, news reports, and sports updates. Media data is also referred to as media content herein.
A mobile device, such as a portable media player, can also operate as a remote controller for other electronic devices. For additional details on a portable media player operating as a remote controller, see, e.g., U.S. patent application Ser. No. 11/314,291, filed Dec. 20, 2005, entitled ��PORTABLE MEDIA PLAYER AS A LOW POWER REMOTE CONTROL AND METHOD THEREOF��, which is hereby incorporated herein by reference.
In the home environment, the peer-to-peer data transfer could be between a mobile device and a computing device, such as a home computer or another mobile device. Typically, the mobile device and the computing device would be associated with a particular user. For example, when the mobile device is within range of a home computer (or a home network), data transfer can be performed between the mobile device and the home computer. The data transfer can be automatic without any user action or can alternatively require manual approval by a user. In one embodiment, the data transfer can be part of a synchronization operation. For additional details on synchronization, particularly in a wireless manner, see, e.g., U.S. application Ser. No. 10/987,649, filed Nov. 12, 2004, and entitled ��WIRELESS SYNCHRONIZATION BETWEEN MEDIA PLAYER AND HOST DEVICE��, which is hereby incorporated herein by reference.
Another aspect of the invention pertains to a local content server. The local content server operates within a local wireless environment. The local content server can be provided at a particular location, such as a business (i.e., establishment), city or other entity for the purpose of wirelessly transmitting data to a nearby mobile device. In other words, when a mobile device is within the vicinity of the local content server that is provided at the particular location, the mobile device is able to transmit/receive data with the local content server. As used herein, ��in the vicinity�� means a region at or near a location.
FIG. 10 illustrates an exemplary local broadcast screen 1000 according to one embodiment of the invention. The local broadcast screen can represent a screen being displayed on a display of a mobile device associated with a patron. The local broadcast screen 1000 can thus inform the patron of the local broadcasts that are available. In this example, the patron is informed that the establishment is presently offering four different local broadcasts, namely, ��Week 3�XNFL��, ��Financial News��, ��Classical Mix��, and ��Pop Mix��. In addition, the local broadcast screen 1000 indicates a ��Decline�� selection as also being available in the event that the patron desires to decline to receive any of the local broadcasts. The patron can interact with the local broadcast screen 1000 to either select one of the available local broadcasts or to decline the broadcasts.
FIG. 15B illustrates an exemplary representation of an existing set 1520 of media items stored in a mobile media device according to one embodiment of the invention, and FIG. 15C illustrates an exemplary representation of an updated set 1520 of media items stored in the mobile media device according to one embodiment of the invention. The existing set 1520 of media items includes songs 1-7. At a subsequent point in time, when the mobile media device comes within a wireless network, then the existing set 1520 of media items can be updated to a new set 1520�� of media items as illustrated in FIG. 15C, provided automatic remote shuffle is enabled and provided access to a remote media depository access is available. Here, it should be noted that in the new set 1520�� of media items includes songs 4 and 6 that were part of the existing set 1520 of media items as well as new songs 8-12. It should be noted that songs 1-3 and 5 are not included in the new set 1520��. The new songs 8-12 are provided from the media repository via the media update response. In this example, the new set 1520�� retains a portion of the existing set 1520. Various criterion can be used to determine which of the media items in the existing set 1520 are to be replaced when forming the new set 1520��. Examples of such criterion include user ratings, play counts, genre, play history, time and location. One or more of the criterion can be used in this regard. As an example, the portion of the existing set 1520 that is to be retained in the new set 1520�� can be selected because such songs have not been played recently, have high user ratings, or due to other reasons.
