First Claim
Patent Images
1. A method comprising:
- detecting touching of one or more portions of at least one first device with one or more portions of at least one second device; and
communicating pairing information from the at least one first device to the at least one second device at least partly in response to detecting touching of one or more portions of the at least one first device with one or more portions of the at least one second device to facilitate pairing of the at least one second device with at least one third device.

57. A system comprising:
-
means for detecting touching of one or more portions of at least one first device with one or more portions of at least one second device; and means for communicating pairing information from the at least one first device to the at least one second device at least partly in response to detected touching of one or more portions of the at least one first device with one or more portions of the at least one second device to facilitate pairing of the at least one second device with at least one third device.

58. A system comprising:
-
one or more non-transitory media bearing one or more instructions for facilitating operations including at least; detecting touching of one or more portions of at least one first device with one or more portions of at least one second device; and communicating pairing information from the at least one first device to the at least one second device at least partly in response to touching of one or more portions of the at least one first device with one or more portions of the at least one second device to facilitate pairing of the at least one second device with at least one third device.
