First Claim
1. A method for transmitting information related to content associated with a first URL to a second WAP/i-mode-enabled device, the method comprising:
- receiving a command at a server from a first WAP/i-mode-enabled device for transmission of the first URL to the second WAP/i-mode-enabled device;
receiving a destination address associated with the second WAP/i-mode-enabled device at the server;

Abstract
Embodiments of the invention allow the convenient transmission of URLs or content corresponding to URLs from a WAP/i-mode-enabled mobile device to any other device across a network. In an embodiment, a URL corresponding to content accessed by WAP/i-mode-enabled mobile device is transmitted to an application server. The WAP/i-mode-enabled mobile device further transmits a destination address for the content to the application server. The application server then transmits the URL corresponding to the content to the destination address. The URL can then be used to render the corresponding content at the destination address. In another embodiment, a URL corresponding to content accessed by the WAP/i-mode-enabled mobile device is transmitted to an application server. The WAP/i-mode-enabled mobile device further transmits a destination address for the content to the application server. The application server then fetches the content corresponding to the URL and transmits the content to the destination device.
