Abstract
Server services are provided by a mobile server having a master server portion and a virtual server portion. The master server portion resides in a wireless communication device and is responsible for the overall function of the mobile server and communicates with a data network through base stations and a support node that supports packet radio service communications. The virtual server portion is wireline coupled to the data network and acts as the foreground server responsible for client interactions on behalf of the mobile server. Accordingly, server services are available even when the wireless communication device is not available.

28. A method of operating a server having a master server portion residing in a wireless communication device and a virtual server portion coupled via wireline to a data network, the method comprising:
-
registering with a support node to provide server services, the support node providing an interface between a wireless network and a data network supporting packet radio data communications for the wireless communication device over the wireless network;
transmitting server data to the support node over the wireless network for routing to the virtual server portion over the data network; and
receiving client data updates from the support node over the wireless network, the client data updates being routed to the support node from the virtual server portion over the data network, wherein requests for server services are provided by the virtual server portion when the master server portion is unavailable. - View Dependent Claims (29, 30)
