1. A method for accessing telephony services and resources by packet enabled devices, comprising the steps of:
- accessing at least one data document on a network by a browser on a packet enabled device;
downloading the at least one data document from the network to the packet enabled device;
identifying by the packet enabled device at least one resource required to display the at least one data document on the packet enabled device;
establishing a communication link between the packet enabled device and a bridge;
transmitting a command from the packet enabled device to the bridge for access to the at least one resource identified by the packet enabled device;
mapping the transmitted command to a standardized protocol command;
establishing at least one call session between the bridge and the at least one resource;
sending the standardized protocol command to the at least one resource;
processing data at the at least one resource based on the standardized protocol command;
returning the processed data to the bridge;
mapping the processed data into a protocol usable by the packet enabled device; and
outputting the processed data in the protocol usable by the packet enabled device from the bridge to the packet enabled device; and
displaying the data document.
