1. A message injection system including a communication device and an external device:
- the communication device includinga memory;
a processor;
an audio switching unit;
a radio interface unit communicatively coupled to the audio switching unit and to a cellular communication network; and
an application operating in the memory;
the external device includinga memory;
a processor;
a plurality of audio files stored in the memory; and
a connection unit communicatively coupled to an application in the communication device via a first communication connection, and to the audio switching unit via a second communication connection,wherein the application in the communication device transmits a request for the external device to broadcast at least one selected file stored in the memory of the external device to a receiving device communicatively coupled to the cellular network via the radio interface unit and the second communication connection with the audio switching unit.
