1. A method, comprising:
- a system receiving data via a wireless communication system from a processor that is associated with a user, the data concerning the location of the processor;
the system storing the data concerning the location of the processor;
the system receiving user input data concerning a user input received by the processor, the user input data received by the system when the processor is at an input location;
the system associating the user input data with the input location and storing the user input data;
the system continuing to receive and store data concerning the location of the processor after storing the user input data;
the system monitoring the location of the processor; and
when the system determines that the location of the processor is approaching the input location, the server automatically delivering to the processor a signal to display a display element on an associated display device.

14. A method, comprising:
-
a server receiving data via a wireless communication system from a processor, the processor being associated with a user, the data comprising a user input and an input location of the processor, the input location being a location of the processor at or around when the user input was received; saving the data concerning the user input and the input location of the processor so that the data concerning the user input is correlated with the input location; the server continuing to receive data relating to the location of the processor via the wireless communication system; the server identifying stored data relevant to or responsive to the user input; the server monitoring the location of the processor; and when the server determines that the location of the processor is at or near the input location, the server delivers to the processor the stored data relevant to or responsive to the user input. - View Dependent Claims (15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25, 26, 27, 28, 29, 30, 31, 32, 33, 34, 35, 36, 37, 38, 39, 40)
