TECHNIQUE FOR PROVIDING SECONDARY INFORMATION TO A USER EQUIPMENT
First Claim
1. A method for providing secondary information to a user equipment, the method comprising:
- detecting at least one triggering event in a user equipment while the user equipment is receiving a primary content via a first communication channel;
transmitting, in response to the at least one triggering event, a request for a secondary content to a phonepage server via a second communication channel, the requested secondary content comprising at least one data object;
locating the at least one data object;
causing the at least one data object to be transmitted to the user equipment via a third communication channel; and
rendering the at least one data object on the user equipment.
