Messaging method, system and mobile device

A system, comprising:

• a mobile device;
• a messaging device separate from the mobile device;
• and
• an apparatus comprising a processor and a memory having computer-readable instructions stored thereon that, when executed by the processor, cause the apparatus to:
• cause the mobile device to be registered in a database by storing identification information associated with the mobile device in the database and storing network connectivity information indicative of whether the mobile device is connected to a wireless network in the database;
• and
• facilitate a message to be communicated to the mobile device from the messaging device by causing the identification information and the network connectivity information to be communicated to the messaging device,
• wherein the wireless network is a first wireless network of two or more wireless networks, the network connectivity information indicates that the mobile device is connected to the first network, and the apparatus is further caused to:
• cause the mobile device to switch from the first wireless network to a second wireless network based on a determination that a signal strength of the second wireless network is greater than a signal strength of the first wireless network;
• cause the network connectivity information to be updated to indicate that the mobile device is connected to the second wireless network;
• and
• cause the updated network connectivity information to be communicated to the messaging device.

A mobile device, comprising:

• an antenna;
• a processor;
• and
• a memory having computer-readable instructions stored thereon that, when executed by the processor, cause the mobile device to:
• communicate identification information associated with the mobile device and network connectivity information indicative of whether the mobile device is connected to a wireless network to a registration server configured to store the identification information in a database;
• and
• receive a message from a messaging device separate from the mobile device, the messaging device being configured to send the message to the mobile device based on the identification information and the network connectivity information,
• wherein the wireless network is a first wireless network of two or more wireless networks, the network connectivity information indicates that the mobile device is connected to the first network, and the mobile device is further caused to:
• switch from the first wireless network to a second wireless network based on a determination that a signal strength of the second wireless network is greater than a signal strength of the first wireless network;
• and
• cause the network connectivity information to be updated to indicate that the mobile device is connected to the second wireless network to facilitate the updated network connectivity information being communicated to the messaging device by the registration server.
