Abstract
A system for providing a user interface for an application running on a communications device is disclosed. The system may include a host device configured to exchange user input and display information to a display, and may be coupled to a communication device through a transport link. The host device may be configured to download an application from the host device to the communication device; provide a user interface for the application on the host device; and execute the application on the communication device.
