One button access to network services from a remote control device
First Claim
1. A method of remotely generating signals to access a network-based communication service from a mobile communication device, comprising:
- generating a dialing request at a remote control device based on user input; and
transmitting a dialing signal toward the mobile communication device based on the dialing request, the dialing signal instructing the mobile communication device to access the network-based communication service.

Abstract
Systems and methods of accessing a network-based communication service provide for generating a dialing request at a remote control device based on user input. A dialing signal is transmitted toward a mobile communication device based on the request, where the dialing signal instructs the mobile communication device to access the network-based communication service. Communication services can enable a user to use information retrieval at a network server as well as use number dialing at the network server. In one example, the dialing signal is transmitted according to a Bluetooth standard.
