Abstract:
A short-range wireless communication apparatus is disclosed. The short-range wireless communication apparatus comprises: multiple connection devices and a control device. The connection devices are capable of simultaneously connecting multiple communication interfaces to a communication counterparty apparatus to enable sound data transfer. When the control device determines that, in cases where the communication interfaces are communicably connected, there arises a request to start outputting the sound data transferred by one of the communication interfaces, the control device disconnects another one of the communication interfaces while keeping the one of the communication interfaces connected and causes a sound data output device to output the sound data transferred from the communication counterparty apparatus by the one of the communication interfaces.

Claim (Index 5):
A method comprising\n causing a sound data output device to output sound data that is transferred from a communication counterparty apparatus to an in-vehicle apparatus selectively by a first communication interface or a second communication interface, wherein: causing the sound data output device to output the sound data includes:\n causing the first communication interface to transfer the sound data and keeping the second communication interface connected between the in-vehicle apparatus and the communication counterparty apparatus, when transfer of the sound data by the first communication interface is requested by a user while (i) the first communication interface and the second communication interface are connected between the in-vehicle apparatus and the communication counterparty apparatus and \n (ii) the sound data is not being transferred by the first communication interface nor the second communication interface; and \n disconnecting the first communication interface connected between the in-vehicle apparatus and the communication counterparty apparatus and causing the second communication interface to transfer the sound data, when transfer of the sound data by the second communication interface is requested by the user while the sound data is being transferred by the first communication interface.
