17. A method of handling information distribution from a host service in communication with a computer network to a mobile station in communication with a wireless network, the method comprising the steps of:
-
receiving a data item associated with the mobile station;
determining at the host service whether a network resource is associated with the mobile station;
upon a negative determination that a network resource is associated with the mobile station, transmitting an out-of-band message from the host service to the mobile station to instruct the mobile station to acquire the network resource; and
upon a positive determination that a network resource is associated with the mobile station, transmitting the data item to the mobile station. - View Dependent Claims (18, 19, 20, 21, 22)

23. A system for managing information distribution between a host service in communication with a computer network and a mobile station in communication with a wireless network, the system comprising:
a mobile station comprising a processing subsystem, a communication subsystem, and a memory subsystem, the mobile station operable to receive an out-of-band network resource request over the communication subsystem and in response to the network resource request to obtain a network resource in the wireless network and transmit a confirmation message to the host service indicating the mobile station has acquired the network resource. - View Dependent Claims (24, 25, 26, 27, 28, 29, 30, 31, 32, 33, 34)

35. A system for managing information distribution between a computer network and mobile stations in communication with a wireless network, the system comprising:
-
one or more host services, each host service operable to receive data items associated with mobile stations and for each data item determine from a resource status of network resources associated with the mobile stations whether a network resource is associated with a mobile station, and upon a negative determination is further operable to transmit an out-of-band message to the mobile station to instruct the mobile station to acquire the network resource and transmit the data item to the mobile station upon receiving a confirmation message that the mobile station has acquired the network resource; and
a network resource monitor in communication with the wireless network and the one or more host services and operable to track the resource status of network resources associated with the mobile stations and automatically transmit the resource status to the one or more host services. - View Dependent Claims (36, 37, 38, 39, 40, 41, 42, 43, 44, 45, 46)
