Methods and Systems for Providing Items to Customers Via a Network

A system, comprising:

• a processor;
• a memory coupled to the processor;
• a network interface coupled to the processor and configured to be coupled to a network;
• wherein the memory includes instructions that when executed by the processor, the system:
• concurrently emulates a plurality of emulated mobile devices, wherein each of the plurality of emulated mobile devices corresponds to a physical mobile device configured to be carried by a user, wherein at least two of the plurality of emulated mobile devices emulate two different physical mobile devices, wherein a first emulated mobile device of the plurality of emulated mobile devices that corresponds to a first physical mobile device of the two different physical mobile devices includes a first physical processor, a first physical memory, and a first physical integrated circuit, wherein a second emulated mobile device of the plurality of emulated mobile devices that corresponds to a second physical mobile device of the two different physical mobile devices includes a second physical processor, a second physical memory, and a second physical integrated circuit, and wherein at least one of the first physical processor, the first physical memory, and the first physical integrated circuit is different from a corresponding one of the second physical processor, the second physical memory, and the second physical integrated circuit;
• receives, via the network, first data associated with a first network identifier;
• provides, based on the first network identifier, the first data to the first emulated mobile device of the plurality of emulated mobile devices;
• receives, via the network, second data associated with a second network identifier, different from the first network identifier;
• provides, based on the second network identifier, the second data to the second emulated mobile device of the plurality of emulated mobile devices;
• in response to the first emulated mobile device processing the first data, provides, based on the first network identifier, third data from the first emulated mobile device to the network;
• and
• in response to the second emulated mobile device processing the second data, provides, based on the second network identifier, fourth data from the second emulated mobile device to the network.

A computer readable memory device comprising instructions, that when the instructions are executed on a plurality of processing systems,

• a first processing system of the plurality of processing systems, associated with a first network identifier:
• determines functionality of the first processing system;
• receives, via a network and based on the first network identifier, first emulation interface instructions and first emulation interface data;
• displays first information to a first customer via a first user interface;
• couples, via the network and based on the first network identifier, with a first emulator;
• receives, via the network and based on the first network identifier, first display information from the first emulator;
• displays the first display information to the first customer;
• receives first user input data;
• and
• provides, via the network and based on the first network identifier, the first user input data to the first emulator;
• and
• a second processing system of the plurality of processing systems, associated with a second network identifier:
• determines functionality of the second processing system;
• receives, via the network and based on the second network identifier, second emulation interface instructions and second emulation interface data;
• displays second information to a second customer via a second user interface;
• couples, via the network and based on the second network identifier, with a second emulator;
• receives, via the network and based on the second network identifier, second display information from the second emulator;
• displays the second display information to the second customer;
• receives second user input data;
• and
• provides, via the network and based on the second network identifier, the second user input data to the second emulator;
• wherein the first processing system is different from the second processing system;
• wherein the first network identifier is different from the second network identifier;
• wherein the first emulator is different from the second emulator;
• wherein the first emulator emulates a first physical mobile device that includes a first physical processor, a first physical memory, and a first physical integrated circuit;
• wherein the second emulator emulates a second physical mobile device that includes a second physical processor, a second physical memory, and a second physical integrated circuit;
• and
• wherein at least one of the first physical processor, the first physical memory, and the first physical integrated circuit is different from a corresponding one of the second physical processor, the second physical memory, and the second physical integrated circuit.
