First Claim
1. A method for recording data on multiple wireless communications channels, which comprises:
- selectively recording the user'"'"'s transmission for playback by at least one of the user and another user; and
if another new wireless transmission starts to be received by the user during the user'"'"'s transmission, performing one of the following steps;
continuing transmission of the user'"'"'s transmission and recording the new wireless transmission at least from a beginning of the new wireless transmission for playback by at least one of the user and another user; and

23. A method for recording data on multiple wireless communications channels, which comprises:
-
determining, upon initiation of a user'"'"'s wireless transmission, if another wireless transmission is being received already by the user and;
if so, recording the user'"'"'s transmission for playback by at least one of the user and another user; and
if not, beginning transmission of the user'"'"'s transmission; and
if another new wireless transmission starts to be received by the user during the user'"'"'s transmission, performing one of the following steps;
continuing transmission of the user'"'"'s transmission and recording the new wireless transmission at least from a beginning of the new wireless transmission for playback by at least one of the user and another user; and
stopping transmission of the user'"'"'s transmission and starting to record at least a remainder of the user'"'"'s transmission at least from the beginning of the new wireless transmission for playback by at least one of the user and another user, and receiving the new wireless transmission by the user.

24. A method for recording data including at least one of a digital code, a digital audio signal, a digital image, and a digital video stream on multiple wireless communications channels, which comprises:
-
determining, upon initiation of a user'"'"'s wireless transmission, if another wireless transmission is being received already by the user and;
if so, digitally recording the user'"'"'s transmission in at least one memory for playback by at least one of the user and another user; and
if not, beginning transmission of the user'"'"'s transmission; and
if another new wireless transmission starts to be received by the user during the user'"'"'s transmission, performing one of the following steps;
continuing transmission of the user'"'"'s transmission and simultaneously digitally recording the new wireless transmission at least from a beginning of the new wireless transmission in the at least one memory for playback by at least one of the user and another user; and
immediately stopping transmission of the user'"'"'s transmission and immediately starting to digitally record at least a remainder of the user'"'"'s transmission at least from the beginning of the new wireless transmission in the at least one memory for playback by at least one of the user and another user, and simultaneously immediately receiving the new wireless transmission by the user; and
playing back at least one of the recorded transmissions after at least one of;
the new wireless transmission has ended; and
the user'"'"'s transmission has ended.

25. A multiple channel data recorder, comprising:
-
at least one wireless communications transceiver;
a display; and
a processor connected to said at least one transceiver and to said display, said processor being programmed to selectively record the user'"'"'s transmission for playback by at least one of the user and another user; and
if another new wireless transmission starts to be received by the user during the user'"'"'s transmission, said processor being programmed to perform one of the following steps;
continue transmitting the user'"'"'s transmission and record the new wireless transmission at least from a beginning of the new wireless transmission for playback by at least one of the user and another user; and
stop transmitting the user'"'"'s transmission and start recording at least a remainder of the user'"'"'s transmission at least from the beginning of the new wireless transmission for playback by at least one of the user and another user, and receive the new wireless transmission by the user. - View Dependent Claims (26, 27, 28, 29, 30, 31, 32, 33, 34, 35, 36, 37, 38, 39)

40. A multiple channel data recorder, comprising:
-
at least one wireless communications transceiver;
a display; and
a processor connected to said at least one transceiver and to said display, said processor being programmed to determine, upon initiation of a user'"'"'s wireless transmission, if another wireless transmission is being received already by the user and;
if so, to record the user'"'"'s transmission for playback by at least one of the user and another user; and
if not, to begin transmitting the user'"'"'s transmission through said at least one transceiver; and
