Abstract:
A method of transmitting and receiving text data via a communication device is provided. In one embodiment, an incoming message is received at a communication node. The node determines whether the incoming message comprises text data. If so, the incoming message is forwarded to a communication device. If not, the message is forwarded to a text interface. In another embodiment, an instruction signal is received at a communication node. Based on the instruction signal, a connection is established with a communication device. A text message is then received. The node determines if the device can receive the text-message. If so, the message is forwarded to the device. If not, the message is forwarded to a text interface.
