Method and system for a persistent request generated by a wireless device, executed remotely and output to configurable local resources
First Claim
1. A method for communicating in a network, the method comprising:
- in a handheld wireless communication device;
generating, for a particular user, a persistent request for media content, the persistent request extending over a period of time;
discovering a local resource available for media consumption;
determining a match between a capability of the local resource and a user preference associated with the persistent request; and
communicating the persistent request to a remote device for execution of the persistent request with reference to a location of the handheld wireless communication device, wherein the execution of the persistent request configures the local resource to subsequently receive the media content for consumption.

Abstract
Methods and systems for a persistent request generated by a wireless device, executed remotely and output to configurable local resources are disclosed and may include generating via a handheld wireless communication device (HWCD) a persistent request for a user that may be communicated to remote devices for execution and storage of results. The stored results may be received from local resources local which may be configured by the remote devices based on user preferences to deliver the stored results to the user. The stored results may be received by the user via the HWCD or another wireless communication device, and the identity of the user may be authenticated prior to receiving the stored results. The remote devices may discover the local resources based on the detection of the user logging into the network. User preferences may be stored in networked devices or may be stored in the HWCD.

8. A system comprising:
-
processing circuitry residing within a handheld wireless communication device and operable to; generate a persistent request for a media program; discover a local resource available for media consumption; determine a match between a capability of the local resource and a user preference associated with the persistent request; and communicate the persistent request to a remote device for execution of the request over a period of time with reference to a location of the handheld wireless communication device, wherein the persistent request configures the local resource to subsequently receive the media program for consumption. - View Dependent Claims (9, 10, 11, 12)
