Shared processing between wireless interface devices of a host device

An method comprises:

• transceiving first packetized data between a host module and a first external device in accordance with a first wireless communication protocol;
• processing the first packetized data via a first processing module;
• transceiving second packetized data between the host module and a second external device in accordance with a second wireless communication protocol,
• processing the second packetized data via a second processing module that assigns a first processing task relating to the processing of the second packetized data to the first processing module.

A communication device comprises:

• a host module;
• a first wireless interface circuit, coupled to the host module, that transceives first packetized data between a host module and a first external device in accordance with a first wireless communication protocol, wherein the first wireless interface circuit includes a first processing module that processes the first packetized data;
• a second wireless interface circuit, coupled to the host module, that transceives second packetized data between the host module and a second external device in accordance with a second wireless communication protocol, wherein the second wireless interface circuit includes a second processing module that processes the second packetized data;
• and
• a high speed bus, coupled to the first wireless interface circuit and the second wireless interface circuit, that bidirectionally communicates task information between the first wireless interface circuit and the second wireless interface circuit;
• wherein the second wireless interface circuit is operable to assign a first processing task to the first processing module wherein the first processing task relates to the processing of the second packetized data.
