METHOD AND APPARATUS PERTAINING TO BLUETOOTH™-CONVEYED VOICE-BASED USER INPUT
First Claim
1. An apparatus comprising:
- a Bluetooth-compatible transceiver;
a cellular-telephony transceiver;
a control circuit operably coupled to both the Bluetooth-compatible transceiver and the cellular-telephony transceiver and configured, at least in part, to;
facilitate at least one on-board application using voice-based user input;
upon determining that a call-setup message received via the Bluetooth-compatible transceiver specifies a particular predetermined number to call, automatically using audio content received via the Bluetooth-compatible transceiver as the voice-based user input for the on-board application.

Abstract
An apparatus having both a Bluetooth-compatible transceiver and a cellular-telephony transceiver has a control circuit operably coupled to the foregoing configured to facilitate at least one on-board application using voice-based user input. The control circuit, upon determining that a call-setup message as received via the Bluetooth-compatible transceiver specifies a particular predetermined number (such as a predetermined number that comprises an invalid number to serve as a telephone number) to call, automatically uses audio content received via the Bluetooth-compatible transceiver as the aforementioned voice-based user input for that on-board application. By one approach, the apparatus can provide that predetermined number to a given secondary platform as part of a conveyed contacts list.
