1. A method of responding to a received interrupt event for a user of a communication device, comprising:
- accessing data associated from at least one of a plurality of applications operating on said device to determine a current state of availability of said user;
determining whether a response action is to be sent in response to said interrupt event when said device is in said current state of availability; and
if said response action is to be sent, building said response action utilizing context data associated with at least one application operating on said device, said context data providing context to said response action; and
sending said response action to a sender associated with said interrupt event.

13. A communication device for receiving and responding to a received interrupt event, comprising:
-
a calendar application to track and provide a current state of availability of a user of said device utilizing availability data provided by said user;
a communication module to receive and send communications utilizing at least one communication technology;
an application to track said received interrupt event received from said communication module;
to identify whether a response action is to be sent to a sender of said received interrupt event in response to said availability data;
and if said response action is to be sent, to build said response action utilizing context data associated with at least one application operating on said device, said context data providing context to said response action; and
sending said response action to said sender. - View Dependent Claims (14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20)
