Abstract

The present invention relates to a portable communication device equipped with a screen and a random access memory comprising:
means for receiving a data stream through a radio link; characterized in that it comprises: means for automatically displaying information (I 1 ) from the data stream on said display screen, without any user's request, a part of this information (I 1 ) being stored in random access memory during a period of time that is longer than the duration of display; means for displaying information (I 2 ) from the data stream on said display screen, upon user's request, this information (I 2 ) being stored in random access memory during the duration of display only.

The present invention also relates to a base able to communicate with a portable communication device.

First claim

1 . Portable communication device equipped with a screen and a random access memory comprising:
means for receiving a data stream through a radio link; characterized in that it comprises: means for automatically displaying information (I 1 ) from the data stream on said display screen, without any user's request, a part of this information (I 1 ) being stored in random access memory during a period of time that is longer than the duration of display; means for displaying information (I 2 ) from the data stream on said display screen, upon user's request, this information (I 2 ) being stored in random access memory during the duration of display only.

2 . Portable communication device according to claim 1 characterised in that it comprises means for successively displaying information from the data stream on said screen, without any user's request.

3 . Portable communication device according to claim 1 characterised in that it comprises means for displaying in parallel, on a split screen, information from a data stream on said screen, without any user's request.

4 . Portable communication device according to claim 1 , 2 or 3 characterised in that the data stream received from the radio link is formatted according to predefined textual and graphical elements.

5 . Portable communication device according to claim 4 characterised in that the data stream received from the radio link is formatted according to two models constituted of predefined textual and graphical elements, a first model for the display of information without any user's request and a second model for the display of information upon user request.

6 . Base adapted to communicate with a portable communication device, comprising:
means for connecting to a network; means for receiving data through said network; means for receiving requests through a radio link; characterized in that it comprises: means for detecting updates of information received through said network; means for transmitting data through said radio link, without receiving any request, in case of detection of updates of data received through said network; means for transmitting data through said radio link, upon reception of a request through said radio link.

7 . Base adapted to communicate with a portable communication device according to claim 6 characterised in that it comprises means for formatting a data stream received from said network.

8 . Base adapted to communicate with a portable communication device according to claim 7 characterised in that the data stream received from said network is formatted, at the level of said base, according to predefined textual and graphical elements.

9 . Base adapted to communicate with a portable communication device according to claim 7 characterised in that the formatting of the data stream, at the level of said base, is carried out according to two models constituted of predefined textual and graphical elements, a first model for the transmission of data without reception of a request and a second model for the transmission of data upon reception of a request.
