1. A method for synchronizing World Wide Web content between a plurality of mobile devices in a network comprising a plurality of proxies, the method comprising the steps of:
- initiating, through the plurality of proxies, a synchronized session between the plurality of mobile devices;
a first mobile device of the plurality of mobile devices retrieving content from a World Wide Web server through a first proxy of the plurality of proxies; and
synchronizing the content among the plurality of mobile devices such that the content on each of the mobile devices is substantially similar.

Abstract
Wireless access protocol-capable wireless devices are able to synchronize displayed Web content. A first WAP device requests a synchronized session through the sync Proxy of the network. The sync Proxy, through a WAP Push Proxy, sets up the synchronized session. One or both wireless devices may then request content from a Web site. This content is transmitted from the Web site to the first device, and through a WAP proxy to the second device.

7. A method for establishing a synchronized Web content session between a plurality of mobile devices in a network comprising first and second Wireless Access Protocol (WAP) Proxies and a Push Proxy Gateway, the method comprising the steps of:
-
the WAP Proxy receiving from a first mobile device of the plurality of mobile devices a synchronization initiation signal;
the WAP Proxy transmitting a Push Access Protocol signal to the Push Proxy Gateway;
the Push Proxy Gateway transmitting a Push Service Indication signal to a second mobile device of the plurality of mobile devices;
the second mobile device transmitting a synchronization accept signal to the WAP Proxy; and
the WAP Proxy transmitting a synchronization acknowledge signal to the first mobile device. - View Dependent Claims (8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 14, 15, 17, 18, 19)

16. A method for establishing a one-way synchronized session between a plurality of wireless devices operating in a network comprising at least a first and a second Wireless Access Protocol (WAP) Proxies and a Push Proxy Gateway, the method comprising the steps of:
-
the first WAP Proxy receiving a synchronization request signal, comprising a first profile, from a first wireless device;
the first WAP Proxy transmitting a Push signal to the Push Proxy Gateway;
the Push Proxy Gateway transmitting a Push Service Indication signal to a second wireless device;
the first WAP Proxy receiving a synchronization accept signal, comprising a second profile, from the second wireless device; and
the first WAP Proxy transmitting the synchronization accept signal to the first wireless device.

20. A method for establishing a synchronized Web content session between a plurality of wireless devices operating in a network comprising a Wireless Access Protocol (WAP) Proxy and a Push Proxy Gateway, the method comprising the steps of:
-
the WAP Proxy receiving a synchronization initiation signal from a first wireless device of the plurality of wireless devices;
the WAP Proxy transmitting a Push Access Protocol signal to a second wireless device through the Push Proxy Gateway;
the second mobile device transmitting a synchronization accept signal to the WAP Proxy;
the WAP Proxy transmitting a synchronization acknowledge signal to the first mobile device;
the WAP Proxy receiving a Web content request signal from the first wireless device;
the WAP Proxy transmitting the Web content request signal to a Web server;
the WAP Proxy receiving the Web content in response to the request signal;
the WAP Proxy transmitting the Web content to the first wireless device;
the WAP Proxy transmitting a Push signal to the second wireless device through the Push Proxy Gateway; and
the WAP Proxy transmitting the Web content to the second wireless device in response to a received request for the Web content. - View Dependent Claims (21)
