COMMUNICATION DEVICE FOR DETERMINING CONTEXTUAL INFORMATION
First Claim
1. A method for determining contextual information at a communication device comprising a processing unit interconnected with a memory device, a communication interface and a display device, said method comprising:
- receiving textual information from at least one of an input device and said communication interface;
processing said textual information to automatically extract contextual data embedded in said textual information in response to said receiving;
automatically retrieving supplementary contextual data based on said contextual data from a remote data source via said communication interface in response to said processing; and
,automatically rendering said supplementary contextual data at said display device in association with said contextual data in response to receiving said supplementary contextual data.

Abstract
A method and communication device for determining contextual information is provided. Textual information is received from at least one of an input device and a communication interface at the communication device. The textual information is processed to automatically extract contextual data embedded in the textual information in response to the receiving. Supplementary contextual data is automatically retrieved based on the contextual data from a remote data source via the communication interface in response to the processing. The supplementary contextual data is automatically rendered at the display device in association with the contextual data in response to receiving the supplementary contextual data.
