Information caching system and method
First Claim
1. A method for processing sending information in a sending device, comprising:
- receiving an entry input by a user at the sending device, the entry comprising sending information that identifies a destination to which information is to be sent by the sending device;
responsive to the entry, cross-referencing the user-entered sending information with a contacts database that contains recipient sending information of the user to determine if the user-entered sending information matches sending information saved in the contacts database, wherein the contacts database is stored within memory of the sending device; and
automatically caching the user-entered sending information in the contacts database if the user-entered sending information has not been previously saved.

Abstract
The present disclosure relates to a system and method for processing sending information in a sending device. The method comprises receiving at least a fragment of a destination address/number to which information is to be sent; cross-referencing the address/number fragment with a database assigned to the user to see if the address/number matches an address/number saved for that user; and automatically caching the address/number in the user'"'"'s database if it has not been previously saved. The system therefore comprises logic configured to receive at least a fragment of a destination address/number to which information is to be sent; logic configured to cross-reference the address/number fragment with a database assigned to the user to see if the address/number matches an address/number saved for that user; and logic configured to automatically cache the address/number in the user'"'"'s database if it has not been previously saved.

7. A method for processing sending information in a sending device, comprising:
-
receiving an entry input by a user at the sending device, the entry comprising sending information, and determining the identity of the user from the entry; receiving the sending information entered by the user that identifies a destination to which information is to be sent by the sending device; responsive to the entry, cross-referencing the sending information entered by the user with a contacts database that contains recipient sending information of the user to determine if the user-entered sending information matches sending information saved for that user, wherein the contacts database is stored within memory of the sending device; providing previously saved sending information to the user as a selection option if sending information entered by the user matches the previously saved sending information; and automatically caching the user-entered sending information in the contacts database if the user-entered sending information has not been previously saved. - View Dependent Claims (8, 9, 10, 11)

12. A sending information processing system, comprising:
-
logic configured to receive sending information entered by a user at a sending device that identifies a destination to which electrical information is to be sent; logic configured to, responsive to the entry, cross-reference the user-entered sending information with a contacts database that contains recipient sending information of the user to determine if the user-entered sending information matches sending information saved for that user in the database, wherein the contacts database is stored within memory of the sending device; and logic configured to automatically cache the user-entered sending information in the contacts database if the user-entered sending information has not been previously saved. - View Dependent Claims (13, 14, 15, 16)

17. A sending information processing system, comprising:
-
means for receiving through entry by a user at a sending device sending information that indicates a destination to which information is to be sent; means for, responsive to the entry, cross-referencing the user-entered sending information with a contacts database that contains recipient sending information of the user to determine if the user-entered sending information matches sending information saved in the database for that user, wherein the contacts database is stored within memory of the sending device; and means for automatically caching the user-entered sending information in the contacts database if the user-entered sending information has not been previously saved. - View Dependent Claims (18, 19, 20, 21)
