Abstract
A portable terminal and a method for providing information includes establishing a connection with an automated response system (ARS); receiving, from the ARS, a sound; parsing the received sound into one or more blocks of data; identifying a number value and a word from a block of data; generating mapping data by mapping a number key of the portable terminal to the identified word based on the identified number value; and outputting the mapped word with the corresponding number key on the portable terminal according to the mapping data.

A method for providing information on a portable terminal, comprising:
- establishing a connection with an automated response system (ARS);
- receiving, from the ARS, a sound;
- parsing the received sound into one or more blocks of data;
- identifying a number value and a word from a block of data;
- generating mapping data by mapping a number key of the portable terminal to the identified word based on the identified number value;
- and
- outputting the mapped word with the corresponding number key on the portable terminal according to the mapping data.
A portable terminal, comprising:
- a controller to establish a connection with an automated response system (ARS), and to receive a sound from the ARS;
- a speech processing unit to parse the sound into one or more blocks of data, to identify a number value and a word from a block of data, and to generate mapping data by mapping a number key of the portable terminal to the identified word based on the identified number value;
- and
- a content output unit to output the mapped word with the corresponding number key according to the mapping data.
A method for providing convenience information on a portable terminal, comprising:
- establishing a connection with an automated response system (ARS) having a telephone number;
- determining whether a data object corresponding to the telephone number is stored in a database;
- and
- loading the data object for outputting a text of a menu option mapped to a number key of the portable terminal,
- wherein the data object comprises mapping information of the menu option provided in the ARS with the number key.
