SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR PROVIDING PRODUCT OR SERVICE WITH CELLULAR TELEPHONE
First Claim
1. A system for providing a product or service using a mobile station, the system comprising:
- a shielding defining a coverage area, said shielding arranged to attenuate radio signals originating externally of said coverage area to be less than a pre-determined signal strength;
an antenna associated with said defined coverage area;
a transceiver coupled to said antenna and in communication with a cellular network, said transceiver operative to communicate, via said antenna, a network authorization symbol provided by the cellular network to a mobile station inserted within said defined coverage area utilizing a signal strength greater than said pre-determined signal strength;
a service control unit; and
a service station responsive to said service control unit, said service station operative to provide the product or service,said service control unit operative responsive to said communication of the network authorization symbol to enable said service station to provide said product or service.
