1. A wireless mobile terminal-comprising:
- a) a storage device within the terminal maintaining at least one dedicated push page, wherein each of the at least one dedicated push page comprises settings by the user for-initiating location based push-type transmissions by the terminal or rejecting push pages from a host;
b) a terminal user interface including at least one user selectable push message page based on the settings of the at least one dedicated push page maintained in the storage device, wherein each of the at least one user selectable push message page stored in the storage device is linked to a corresponding dedicated push page, wherein the settings include a set of keywords identifying information of interest to the user and allows only content identified by the keywords to be received by the short-range RF receiver, and matching a keyword identifier in a dedicated push page to a keyword identifier in a push information message; and
c) a controller communicating with the storage device for activating a short range RF transceiver module by effectuating settings of a selected dedicated push page to enable directly receiving of selected location based push-type transmissions by the terminal in response to the user selecting a respective dedicated push message page by entry in the terminal user interface.

Abstract
A wireless mobile terminal allows a user to control receiving of location based push-type transmissions using a menu driven interface. The terminal includes a storage device maintaining dedicated push pages, wherein the pages are used when receiving location based push-type transmissions by the terminal. A controller activates a short range RF transceiver module using a selected dedicated push page, which enables reception of selected location, based push-type transmissions when the push information matches the dedicated push page in the terminal.
