METHOD AND DEVICE FOR ELECTRONIC COMMUNICATION BETWEEN AT LEAST TWO COMMUNICATION DEVICES
First Claim
1. A method for electronic communication between at least two communication devices comprising:
- associating two communication devices intended for data communication using a first coupling andperforming data communication between the mutually associated communication devices using a second coupling;
wherein the first coupling has a shorter range than the second coupling and is activated by physical contact between the communication devices and wherein the first coupling is in the form of a capacitive coupling.

Abstract
This invention relates to a method and an apparatus for electronic communication between at least two communication devices. To allow reliable connection setup between the devices which are to be provided for communication at the same time as simple handling, a method according to the invention has the following steps: two communication devices intended for communication are associated with one another by means of a first coupling mechanism, and the communication between the mutually associated communication devices is performed by means of a second coupling mechanism, wherein the first coupling mechanism has a shorter range than the second coupling mechanism or is effected by means of physical contact between the communication devices.
