Abstract
The present invention is directed to a method and apparatus for recording and generating additional information related to telecommunication events using a mobile communication device, such as a telephone call or a text messaging event using cellular phone or a personal digital assistant. Specifically, the preferred embodiments of the present invention records information such as GPS coordinates that indicate a position of the mobile communication device during the communication event, as well as a location of a sender or receiver of data to or from the mobile communication device, so as to facilitate a log entry of the position of the mobile communication device as well as other useful information that are associated with the communication events.

33. A method for generating a notification using a mobile communication device, the method comprising:
-
acquiring position information, said position information indicating a real-time position of a mobile communication device; generating a communication event data on said mobile communication device, said communication event data defining a communication event and including said position information; transmitting said communication event data from said mobile communication device to a server, said server being operatively coupled to a wireless communication network; associating, at said server, said communication event data to a data base record; determining whether said communication event data triggers a notification based upon at least one predefined notification criterion; and if it is determined that said communication event data triggers a notification, transmitting a notification event from said server to said mobile communication. - View Dependent Claims (34, 35, 36, 37, 38, 39, 54)
