1. A coordination server that retrieves and presents information based on location, the coordination server comprising:
- a mapping manager that maps a contact information into geo coordinates and when provided with the contact information responds back with a corresponding geo coordinates comprising latitude, longitude and elevation;
a task coordinator that, when triggered by the mapping manager as it receives from a first mobile device the contact information, dynamically responds with a list of tasks and presents it to a first mobile device for completion by a user;
the coordination server receives and processes, from the first mobile device, a corresponding user provided response and status information for the list of tasks;
the coordination server presents alerts to the user of the first mobile device when it detects that the user has exited a location without completing one or more tasks from the list of tasks that have been assigned for completion at that location;
wherein the list of tasks comprises a first set of tasks currently assigned to the user and a second set of tasks, if any, created by the user; and
wherein coordination server also comprises at least one processor, memory and storage, wherein the at least one processor when instructed, or as required, executes the mapping manager and the task coordinator in order to provide their corresponding functionality.

13. A mobile device for telematics and user interaction, the mobile device comprising:
-
a processor, memory, storage, and a global positioning system (GPS) receiver circuitry; the mobile device configured to be mounted inside a vehicle or fixed on the dashboard or steering wheel of the vehicle, the mobile device is configured to interact over a telecommunications network or Internet with a coordination server; a client software comprising a navigation component that interacts with the GPS receiver circuitry, the navigation component capable of providing directions to a destination to a user of the mobile device; the client software in the mobile device comprises a task coordinator manager that receives a list of tasks provided by the coordination server and displays them to a user for completion by the user; the client software in the mobile device shows where the individual tasks from the list of tasks are to be completed, on a map optionally displayed to the user; and the client software receives task completion, task rejection, and task deferral information provided by the user for each of the individual tasks from the list of tasks. - View Dependent Claims (14, 15)

16. A mobile device that is configured to interact with a server system, the server system being configured to perform conversions of contact information to corresponding geo coordinates data, the mobile device comprising:
-
a microphone configured to capture a first portion of input data; a touch and gesture sensitive screen configured to capture a second portion of input data; a first communication circuitry configured to connect with a communication means of the server system; a processor configured to support a first operational mode and a second operational mode, the first operational mode involving internal handling of both the first and second portions of the input data, and the second operational mode involving delivering at least a portion of the first and second portions of the input data to the server system and receiving from the server system a dynamically computed task list, wherein the processor is further configured to; receive directions to navigate to a first location associated with a first one of the tasks in the dynamically computed task list; and upon determining the arrival at a point within specific proximity to the first location, prompting a user to provide completion status for the first one of the tasks. - View Dependent Claims (17, 18, 19, 20)
