1. A method for providing internally stored rules of operation to a mobile communications device, the method comprising:

  • comprising one or more absolute rules wherein;

    the absolute rules are composed of one or more operand sentences;

    each operand sentence includes a sequence of one or more operands;

    each operand is separated from the next sequential operand by an implicit boolean AND operator;

    each operand sentence is terminated by a delimiter operand, the delimiter operand corresponding to a result;

    each of the operand sentences is sequentially evaluated, the evaluation being either true or false;

    an operand sentence evaluation of false causes the next sequential operand sentence to be evaluated;

    an operand sentence evaluation of true halts further operand sentence evaluation, the delimiter value of said true operand sentence being the result dictated by the absolute rules;

    using a predefined rules development language to compose one or more rules of operation in a text format;

    converting the rules of operation from the text format into a compressed format;

    encoding the compressed rules of operation into a sequence of numbers;

    using a transport mechanism to transfer the number sequence to an internal memory area of the mobile communications unit;

    decoding the number sequence into compressed rules of operation; and

    storing the compressed rules of operation in predefined areas of nonvolatile random access memory of the mobile communications unit.
