1. A method of reducing the latency in service profile discovery between first and second user devices, each of said devices comprising a first transport associated with the service profile, and a second transport, the method comprising:

  • transmitting data relating to at least one service profile from the first user device to the second using said second transport;

    storing said transmitted data at said second device; and

    subsequently accessing said stored data at said second device when a service discovery for said first device is required;

    wherein said accessing said stored data for said service discovery substantially obviates negotiation and communication over said first transport for said service discovery.
