1. A communication gateway, comprising:
- a message bearer configured to receive presence information signals that are generated based upon one or more presence attributes of a wireless device and a personal state of a user, the presence attributes including dynamic information related to an audio communication session of the wireless device; and
a translation engine coupled to the message bearer operable to translate the presence information signals into signals capable of being transported over an Internet Protocol (IP) network and automatically provide the presence information signals to one or more other wireless devices.
