"I am driving/busy" automatic response system for mobile phones

A process carried out on a cell phone comprising the steps:

• A) receiving a text message on said cell phone or receiving an incoming cellular phone call on said cell phone;
• B) detecting a push of a Busy key (SMS) or Busy key (Call) on said cell phone and sending that event to an operating system of said cell phone with a request to send to a Busy application program on said cell phone the time of the Busy key (SMS) or Busy key (Call) push and the time the latest SMS text message was received in the case of a Busy key (SMS) push or information on whether an incoming call is currently ringing said cell phone in the case of a Busy key (Call) push;
• C) making a function call to said Busy application program to launch it after receiving information that either said Busy key (SMS) or Busy key (Call) was pushed and sending the information requested in step C to said Busy application program;
• D) determining if said Busy key (SMS) was pushed within a predetermined time of the time of receipt of the latest SMS text message, and, if so, doing whatever steps are necessary on the host cell phone upon which said Busy application program is running to automatically select the latest text message received and automatically send a pre-typed text message to the sender of said latest text message without any further interaction with said user of said cell phone;
• E) if said Busy key (SMS) was not pushed within a predetermined time of receipt of the latest text message, determining if said Busy key (Call) was pushed while an incoming cell call was ringing said cell phone, and, if so, doing whatever steps are necessary on the host cell phone upon which said automated response application program is running to automatically answer an incoming cell phone and play a pre-recorded audio message to said caller;
• and
• F) if steps E and F determine that neither the Busy key (SMS) was pushed within a predetermined time of receipt of the latest SMS text message nor the Busy key (Call) was pushed while an incoming phone call is ringing said cell phone, then shutting down said Busy application program.

• A) receiving an incoming SMS text message or an incoming phone call;
• B) detecting a push of a Busy key (SMS) or Busy key (Call) on said cell phone and sending that event to an operating system of said cell phone with a request to send to a Busy application program on said cell phone the time of the Busy key (SMS) or Busy key (Call) push;
• C) sending a function call to a Busy application program on said cell phone with the time of the Busy key push and which Busy key was pushed;
• D) launching said Busy application program on said phone when said function call in step C is sent and starting a timer and incrementing a count of the number of pushes of the particular one of the Busy keys which was pushed;
• E) determining if the same Busy key was pushed X time in Y seconds, which of the Busy key (SMS) or Busy key (Call) was pushed X times in Y seconds;
• F) if said Busy key (SMS) was pushed X times in Y seconds, doing whatever steps are necessary on the host cell phone upon which said Busy application program is running to automatically select the latest text message received and automatically send a pre-typed text message to the sender of said latest text message without any further interaction with said user of said cell phone;
• and
• G) if said Busy key (Call) was pushed X times in Y seconds, doing whatever steps are necessary on the host cell phone upon which said automated response application program is running to automatically answer an incoming cell phone and play a pre-recorded audio message to said caller.
