  • a transmitter and receiver to send and receive cellular communications in the form of radio frequency signals;

    a microprocessor;

    a virtual private network (VPN) network client executing on the microprocessor to establish a VPN connection with a remote VPN security device, wherein the VPN network client processes network packets for securely tunneling the network packets between the cellular mobile device and the remote VPN security device,wherein upon establishing the VPN connection the VPN network client receives a web-based home page from the secure VPN device via a secure response,wherein the VPN network client dynamically parses bookmark links from the secure response and renders a bookmark window using input controls native to the cellular mobile device without invoking a web browser on the cellular mobile device, where each of the input controls corresponds to a different one of the bookmarks parsed from the secure response received from the secure VPN device, andwherein, upon selection of one of the input controls, the VPN network client formulates and outputs an appropriate request to the secure VPN device as if a corresponding one of the bookmark links within the web-based home page were selected by the user.
