Abstract
Certain exemplary embodiments comprise a method comprising a plurality of activities, comprising: via a CPE telephony device simultaneously connectable to a POTS connection and to a connection to a data network: facilitating, via the POTS connection, a PSTN call, and facilitating, via the data network connection, a display of data to a call participant of the PSTN call, the data provided the data network.
Claims23
An apparatus comprising:
- a dedicated purposes, non-cellular, CPE telephony device simultaneously connectable to a POTS connection and to a data network connection, the CPE telephony device adapted to:
- facilitate, via the POTS connection, a PSTN call to a call participant, and
- facilitate, via the data network connection a session through a data network over the PSTN, the CPE telephony device causing a display of data to the call participant of the PSTN call, the data being provided by a data server resident in the data network over the PSTN.
A method comprising a plurality of activities, comprising:
- via a dedicated purposes, non-cellular, CPE telephony device simultaneously connectable to a POTS connection and to a data network connection:
- facilitating, via the POTS connection, a PSTN call to a call participant, and
- facilitating, via the data network connection a session through a data network over the PSTN, the CPE telephony device causing a display of data to the call participant of the PSTN call, the data being provided by a data server resident in the data network over the PSTN.
A machine readable medium storing instructions for activities comprising:
- via a dedicated purposes, non-cellular, CPE telephony device simultaneously connectable to a POTS connection and to a data network connection:
- facilitating, via the POTS connection, a PSTN call to a call participant, and
- facilitating, via the data network connection a session through a data network over the PSTN, the CPE telephony device causing a display of data to the call participant of the PSTN call, the data being provided by a data server resident in the data network over the PSTN.
A method comprising a plurality of activities, comprising:
- for a dedicated purposes, non-cellular, CPE telephony device simultaneously connected to a POTS connection and to a data network connection:
- providing, via the POTS connection, a PSTN call to a call participant, and
- providing, via the data network connection, a session through a data network over the PSTN, the CPE telephony device causing a display of data to the call participant from a data server resident in the data network over the PSTN.
